Little People Driving LIttle Cars

We had another family cookout/bonfire. After the cookout and before s'mores, we took out the little battery operated Jeep that we bought for the grandkids a year (or two?) ago. Now I have always been petrified of these things because its basically a little kid driving a car..but, my brother knew someone selling one really cheap,so I broke down and bought it. Last year they were too little and were actually afraid to drive it. But this year, they were actually driving it around the backyard! Ian had more driving skills than Lainie. They had fun driving to the "festival" and occasionally stopping at the "haunted house" (our shed). I love my imaginative grandbabies!

Of course, Gabe and Lucy also had to try it out. Gabe was pretending to drive while Lucy patted him on the arm (their legs were too short to press the gas pedal, thank goodness!). They love it when they get to be like their older siblings...especially Gabe, who just learned how to climb up the slide and go down by himself...much to Gaga's dismay! You are not supposed to do that yet!
