Mac tearing it up in the wheat field!

Last night it was time to change water. DH told me to get some warm clothes and and Mac too. I was like, ok?! So we got dressed and then DH said that the 2 of us (me and Mac) were going to ride the quads over to the other farm and he would drive the truck. He wanted Mac to get some practice riding by herself in the wheat fields (they've been harvested and there is nothing but stubble left). All in all, she did pretty well. She needs to work on watching where she is going; example- not looking behind to see where mom is, and almost driving off the road! Another- don't try to race the other person and cut them off...we could BOTH wreck and flip our quads...very dangerous and we could get seriously hurt- or even die.

Yesterday I ordered some protective gear for her to ride with. I got her a chest protector, goggles, and gloves. Her bio-dad works at a bike shop part-time, so he ordered her a racing helmet at cost. Hopefuly it will be here sometime next week. In the meantime she has been using her snowmobile helmet, which is fine- it's just kind of heavy and hot to be riding in...but better than nothing- which would mean not riding until she had one! So she is fine with that :o)

Ok. Baby girl is off the bus and home...so I need to run! Toodle dee doo!
