Days of Our Lives: MotoCraziness!!

Avery & his "Rock On" Autographed Poster

We had such a good Labor Day weekend this year....and I didn't even have to go camping! LIFE IS GOOD! LOL Friday night we had supper with the Burris Clan ( except Mike who we listened to on the radio broadcasting the Olney Ttiger football game ). Clint Burris made some really good lasagna stuff & bread. The we played a few games of cornhole! If you haven't heard of cornhole - just imagine a game of washers with glorified beanbags...really fun! Saturday we ALL went to Vincennes for a little grocery shopping and Arby's for supper - gotta love those beef & cheddar sandwiches!

Sunday we headed to Newton for a Rubsam Family cookout at the river, and then Monday was the exclamation point on the weekend with Motocross Stunt riders and supper with Mom & Dad at our house! WHEW....What an AWESOME time we all had!

Our trip to Palastine IL for the Labor Day Parade & MotoStunt Show was really nice. The weather was nearly perfect too! Avery saw the commercial for this MotoStunt Show about a month ago on tv and has been pumped to go ever since. So we ventured to Palastine to watch. WOW! I was thinking this would be some kind of jumping and wheelie - riding etc - NO WAY! This was just like X-Games on ESPN! These riders did CRAZY jumps, complete BACK FLIPS, WILD stunts, and LONG jumps. It was so neat! Avery hasn't quite smiling yet - even as he came home and attempted his own new "tricks" on his bike for Mamoo & Papa last night! LOL Braden & I liked it too - but nothing like Avery & Doug! We even got the riders autographs and pictures after the show. I know Avery will be talking about this for days! And here I thought we should go to the zoo....what did i know! LOL If you want to see video on these crazy riders just go to YouTube.com and type in FMX Team East. You won't believe it:)
