Power Wheels Mania

D let me copy most of this post from a message he put up on the power wheels message board he belongs to...Yes, yes. You heard it right. D has been bitten by the "Power Wheels bug"" and belongs to a power wheels chat board. And, of course, you can't belong to a PW message board without having one, or two, or FIVE power wheels! We now have a total of FIVE at our house:two four wheelers, one jeep, one tractor and one Grave Digger (N doesn't know about GD yet.). D has managed to find three of the five for free, my sister gave us one and D paid for one. I will say the one we paid for is the best shape, but it is used and he got it at a good price...a very good price. All the free power wheels were picked up from people who thought they were broken, but D managed to get them working....Here is what he posted, although I modified it a little.

This afternoon after D finished mowing the yard, he cut a "race track" in the tall grass in the vacant lot next to our house. N really enjoyed it this afternoon, but the best entertainment was when the neighbors came over tonight. N got out his Gaucho (large jeep) and Power Pull (tractor) and the neighbors brought over their Raptor (four wheeler) and Enforcer Junior (small jeep). We had six children using four PW at once, although "going" might be a strong term to use for the Enforcer (small jeep) in the grass. It was loads of fun for the kids , and the adults too. It helped that the kids shared surprisingly well.

At the rate he's going, D will have one Power Wheel for every kid on the block pretty soon. :)








All the kids got "off the beaten path" from time to time, but "L" got stuck near the wood pile and needed help out. His face is so cute. His expression speaks for itself saying "Someone, please help."

We are really starting to look like red necks! Wood pile, five power wheels..what next? Washer and dryer on the front porch as my neighbor suggested?
