Battery-powered Grandpa

Since their cousin Kya got into town the kids had been dying to go outside and play in the backyard with her. So when Jason and I got back into town I headed outside with them. They had lots of fun riding their bikes and scooters and drawing on the patio with chalk. They also wanted to drive around in our little Jeep, but the batteries hadn't been charged and the thing would hardly even go, so the kids were pretty sad. But then Grandpa Rex came to the rescue. He put all of them into the jeep and he became the battery and started pushing them all over the yard. He was doing pop-o-wheelies, driving on two wheels and going really really fast. He'd push them up the little hill in our backyard and then let them go. Afton, Dax and Kya thought it was the greatest thing in the world. They were having so much fun and kept telling him "faster grandpa, faster"! I was even getting a little jealous because it looked like so much fun! Grandpa's really are the best. They love to have fun. Thanks Rex for letting the kids have such a great time on the jeep even though I'm sure your muscles were aching the next day:)
