SANDLAKE SAY WHAT?

Steven and Cole have spent countless evenings getting the buggies ready to go. Time for a test run down at Sandlake for President's Day. It has been over 2 years since we have taken the buggies out. Far too long!Cole has been a huge help. He is quite the mechanic. We couldn't have been ready to go without him.
When we left home it was forcasted to rain or snow and be very windy, we chanced it and went anyways. sure glad we did because for a February Day at the Beach it was quite beautiful. It was still cold but the rain , snow and wind stayed away. We drove through the snow to get there and then again to get home. But as you can see in this pic below, The sun even came out. We are looking out at the ocean. So pretty.

Cole got in alot of drive time. He tries out all of Fast & Furious moves out on the sand. Drifting, power sliding, using the emergency brakes for turning on a dime.

Sierra even got brave and took her turn driving. She got more and more confident on each turn. apparently cautious and slow are not in her duning vocab.

This pic looks like Sierra is picking Maddy's nose (obviously she really isn't)

Sydnee, what a sweety, she had layers upon layers on to stay warm. The 2 in this buggy would be the first to complain if it got too cold! LOL in fact Steven was so confident that when we got to Sandlake it would be so yukky that we would turn right around, "Eat" then go home. so he did not even bring a heavy jacket. Just the sweatshirt he was wearing. Thank heavens for Jeromy, a co-worker of Steve's, happened to be at Sandlake and had an extra coat for him to wear. (Of course Steve refused to ask him, out of embarrasment so i did) Thanks Jeromy you were the day saver!
Syd was done riding in the 2 seater, she wanted to switch to the 5 seater. A photo that speaks many words. Dang I love this kid! She is just sooo awesome!
After we got back to town we stopped in at Chicago's pizza for some dinner. Good times!
I know you can't see it but our waitress could,I have major "sandruff" Oh the price we pay for a good ride in the sand!
Now we have Spring break to look forward too! Headin' down to the Florence Dunes for 4 days

Happy 17th Birthday Sierra! Happy Anniversary DeLona and Steve! Maddy looks gorgeous in her beautiful dress and I love all of the pics. Everyone is getting growing up way to fast and I wish we could be there more often to witness it. One day we will get there!

"getting growing up" isn't the correct to say that, but you get the idea!!
