Super Sami

First off, let me just say that Sami is totally awesome! I may be biased, but she is! Last Sunday she learned how to ride her bike, minus the training wheels. She has asked for someone to teach her before, but we never did, and she told me that Sara Kate finally taught her. She did such a good job, by Sunday night she was zooming around the driveway. I was really impressed.
So today we were out at her dad's house and he decided it was time to teach her how to ride the dirtbike. All the kids ride dirtbikes and atv's, we have a ton, and have been building their own track. She wasn't really dressed for it, but she had a helmet. She did such an excellant job! Unfortunately, it ended on a sad note when she crashed. She got too far ahead of Dean & rode straight into unplowed bumby land. She didn't hear Dean yelling for her to turn and every time she hit a bump her hand moved the gas! Keith rode over on the big atv to help but ended up between her & Dean before he could get to her and it scared her more. Down she went! Luckily her side was only scraped a little, no major injuries, but she won't try it again until she has better riding gear! She did an excellant job though and we were all really proud of her for trying.
