First BMX Races

Dallon and Dawson in their gear. Dawson loves his jersey so much that he wears it to school almost every other day!

This is an action pic I got. If you look really close it's Dallon. (I still haven't figured out how to take pics of this sport). Dallon loves this pic - so I thought I'd post it... he loves that he was going so fast that he is just a streak across the picture.

This was the first night that the boys went to race. They'd been to several practices before signing up to race. They were both nervous, not really knowing what to expect. They did great, and it was tons of fun to cheer them on.  Dallon took third in his age group and each of his races that night were very close races.  Dawson took second in his age group.  They were so excited to get trophy's.  Dawson was so happy that his trophy was bigger than Dallon's.

That looks like a lot of fun to watch, but scary at the same time. Are you ever worried they'll get hurt. It's cool that your kids are involved in so many activites. I'm sure they love it!

That is soooo awesome, I wish they had stuff like that in Vernal. Kade loves to ride BMX but there is nowhere to practice. He is just mastering tricks. Congrats to your boys that is great. What a great sport.

I could definitely tell that the streak is Dallon. Boy do these pictures ever bring back tons of memories. You will have to have a separate room for trophies - just ask Aaron. Glad that they are having so much fun.
