Start your engines!!

The go-kart track is absolutely, without-a-doubt Edee's favorite thing about summertime in Red River!! Uncle Jamas was visiting for the weekend so Eric & Edee had to race him in their annual 4th of July challenge! This was Reed's view as they came out of the starting lane...


It was heartbreaking to stand with him as they rounded the corner! He was trying to climb the fence and crying!! I just kept telling him, "I'm so sorry, Buddy! You're just not big enough!"


Well, boy was I wrong! We went by the track a few days later and the attendant told us that it was okay with him if Reed rode as long as we were okay with it. It was just us and another very nice family on the track, so we took our sweet time! He LOVED it, and towards the end of our 5 minute ride he had drawn a crowd of onlookers! He was waving like he was in a parade!


One more reason why we love Red River!! Even the smallest dreams can come true!
