Maine Party

Friday night we went to Jamie & Matt's house to have our Maine party- we all get together and go over our vacation week- grocery lists, places to visit, when we are leaving, etc. The whole discussion takes maybe a half hour, but it's a nice way to get together and get excited for vacation and hang out with friends.....

As the night goes on, the guys decide to take a ride on Matt's homemade go-cart... he made it for the Richmond Nascar race that they went to this year. The seat is a barstool and it actually moves pretty fast!

Here is Matt and Jim getting it started while Michael anxiously waits to take a ride

Bachert is driving and Brandon is riding in the trailer..... boys and their toys!!

Matt and Michael are on the go-cart (they look like Harry and Lloyd from Dumb & Dumber)

Here they are on their way back to the house- Brandon is riding solo on the 4-wheeler because he wrecked riding in the trailer! They went over a bump and the trailer detached... Brandon rolled head over heels and baddddly scraped/gouged his feet and hands, elbows, heels, etc.

Nurse Jamie to the rescue to fix Brandon's many boo-boo's.... they were horrible and he was bleeding everywhere.... I'm sure if he would have been sober it would have hurt a lot more!


Here are the dogs- from left to right:
Matt & Andrea's Staffordshire Bull Terrior/Pit Bull mix, Mack
Matt & Jamie's Yellow Lab, Cami
and our mixed mut, Koa!!
