Saturday Karting

With the weekends winding down until Kaitlyn's first race, we loaded up the new trailer and took her out to the track for practice on Saturday. It was FREEZING! The sun was out but the wind was blowing and it was the coldest wind. On a positive note, Kaitlyn just keeps improving with her karting. She loves it but she hasn't always shown the signs of being super competitive (which is funny because she is SOOOO COMPETITIVE in everything she does). And we have probably handicapped her a little bit with the equipment she has been in. Well on Saturday she went faster than the track record in her class. She was the only kid-kart there so she had to practice with the big karts, which was hilarious because she has like 1/4 of the motor as most of them. I love the pic of her side-by-side with the big kart because you can just see the determination on her face to beat him. She held her own and did a very good job practicing with those big guys :-)

Rick got to take his trailer out for its first spin. It is going to be so nice to have all our stuff together and be able to haul it all. On Friday he spent the afternoon running around getting parking squared away. We broke down and rented a space to store the motorhome so we took that out and parked it. He then went over to Kevin and Michelle's who have been kind enough to store our boat all winter. He went and got the boat and because they are such great friends they are now letting us store the big car trailer out there. Its nice to have it all close enough to be able to get it if we need it. All these toys though are another reminder how much we need some property. Since we turned the carport into a garage the boat's home is gone so it went back in the RV parking area we put in and then we parked the g0-kart trailer behind that.

Saturday night we just took it easy and got ready for a fun Easter!
