"Riding along in my automobile, baby beside me at the wheel"

On Friday afternoon the kids and I decided to take advantage of the break in the rain and clouds and get outside and collect some much needed vitamin D. Harper ran out the back door and sprang off the back porch and was shouting "woohoo", clearly being very excited and getting out in her backyard to play. Owen was all kinds of pumped up to go sit in his swing, at least that's what I imagined he was feeling, due to the fact that you can only gather so much information from an 8 month old. Anyways I was finishing up hanging the swings on the play house and Harper had gotten out her John Deere Gator and was zooming around the yard. When it was time to go in I asked Harper to go put her gator away and this is what ensued.

All was well, Owen appeared very excited and proud to be riding shotgun with his sister. As you hear Harper inform her brother that "It's a tight turn OK Owie", I thought to myself I better get closer just in case. Good thing, the video ends, in case you can't tell, with me swooping in to grab Owen before he dives out, on a tight turn, into the yard.
All in all it was tons of fun finally getting outside to play!
