Scouts, community center and more

Saturday we had a really busy day.  We started at the bike rodeo for scouts.  This is Michael's first scouting event and he was extremely excited!!!


Getting on their bikes heading over there.


They also had a bouncy castle there, here Michael is doing karate moves!


They really enjoyed the bouncy castle and it got out more energy!!


Here AJ is getting his bike checked over to make sure it is in tip top shape!


Michael's turn, it was nice because now their bikes are both in tip top shape!


It was flag day, so they had a couple of airman come and do the flag ceremony.  They did a really great job!!!


Here they learned about the laws and rule of Germany for bike riding.  We found out we need two more reflectors on their bikes to make them German legal.


Michael liked this part, he was able to turn on the siren of the police bikes.  They are out there all year round on post and base now.


They also had a little bit about nutrition.


On to bike riding - they had obstacle courses the boys had to ride through.


They also had a pretend road so they had to stop and make sure who has the right of way.


This was Michael's second time riding without training wheels so he wanted Dad to walk next to him.


But he did get out there and ride on his own, we just need to ride a little bit more and I think he will get more confident.


AJ sure does love riding his bike and I am soooooo glad!


Michael making a small first aid kit.


AJ was learning how to change a tire on his bike.


They were going to do a 5K and a 10K bike ride.  We haven't done long bike rides yet, but AJ decided he wanted to do the 10K bike ride.


Off he goes!!!


They had a drunk driving car there and Michael really wanted to do it.  He could barely reach the pedals but was able to pull it off.  I think he crashed like 3 times, hit 2 people and went over the speed limit quite a few times.  But for not being a driver that wasn't bad.


AJ coming back from the 10K still smiling!!!


AJ decided he wanted to try also, he did about as well as Michael did.  :-)


After that we headed down to another post and joined a community day.  Of course they wanted to do the bouncy castle/slide first!!!


Next to the bean bag toss - AJ stayed here for quite awhile trying to beat his old score.


This gal was talented with the face painting, Michael wanted a dragon.


AJ also wanted a dragon, just a different kind of one!


And back to the slide!


AJ decided to get a T-Rex on the other side of his face.  It looked really cool!  I also love this smile coming down the slide!


Michael's turn!


AJ wanted a picture of the T-Rex with his mouth open.  He thought it was cool that he could make the T-Rex mouth open and close.  After that we decided to do some bowling.  It was a great time bowling!!!  Like I said it was a full and very fun day!!!
