First Post!

Here it is, the first real post on our blog, not that it's all that great or anything. 

So we left home at about 3:00-3:30 after much fiddling around with tie-down straps and tires thanks to Opa (that's grandpa on dad's side) and Dad, with some help from Ben. We stopped at Best Buy, picked up King of the Hill season 3, then drove for a while and ended up stopping and Russ and Carol's (our grand Uncle and Aunt) then making our way to Jerry and Joan's for some dinner, rhubarb cake, the last minute of the Lakers vs Magic and a nice warm bed! Too bad we wont have this kind of comfort and hospitality all the way out to Salt Lake City. 

Right now we're sitting at Jakie and Trent's while waiting for the tire to get changed on the Honda. Ben's playing games with Riley and I'm working on this post. Since there isn't much interesting to post yet, you'll all have to be patient, especially while I work out the kinks of blogging. Here are a couple pictures, and I'll be sure to take more (even if there was little to take pictures of).

Jakie's trying out your recipe for pumpkin pancakes mom, so here they are! (Turns out they don't have coconut butter in Tyler! Who would have guessed!)

Here's Ben and Uncle Jerry.

The Minivan with the one bike (for now). 

Tatum and a little bit of Riley.

And Ben and the girls jumping on the trampoline outside.

Well that's it for now, but I'll try to get something better out soon, with some of us camping and riding. Later all!
