Who needs training wheels!

While we were camping with friends they said they had the same bike as Macy except in pink.  Their daughter has since outgrown it so it was just in their barn.  I told them I wanted to buy it.  She brought it over yesterday.  Leah was busy transferring training wheels to Brooke's new bike, my friend Missi and I were standing outside talking and Macy goes cruising by, on Brooke's old bike, no training wheels.  WHAT!!!!  No troubles, no questions, no "HOLD ONTO ME!"  It was like, "see ya!"  So fun!   So of course at night we had to go to Grandpa and Grandma Koemans to show off the new talent and borrow their huge driveway. 
When Brooke was in the hospital, Steve called me once because Ash had learned to ride a 2 wheeler.  He took tons of pictures and sent them to me.  Being selfish, I cried.  "How could she learn to do this without me?"   Sounds silly I know but I like seeing the 1st.  It's such a huge milestone.  So of course, I was super excited to see Macy flying around. (and I mean flying.  On one of the videos I took you can hear grandma in the background, "slow down little girl"  hehe)
When Steve saw her, he said he knew she could, but he didn't want to take them off and then Brooke would think she had to try.  Brooke heard us and said, "NO WAY  I'm NEVER taking my training wheels off!"  There was that question answered. 
Way to Go MACY!!!!
 These are just a couple random pics.  The twins still enjoy the sleepy Burley ride.  I like it too :)  They are counting the sleeps til they go to school!!!  Oh boy!!!  So excited!!
The two below found every puddle at grandpa and grandma's house.  At one point they were laying in the puddles.  Really?!?!  Aren't any prissy girls around here.  I'm happy that grandpa and grandma are such good sports with all these kids.
