Another Great Idea

Sometimes I just have to laugh when Matt comes up with another one of his ideas.
To know what goes on in a man's head. :)
Here's the latest one...




I mean really!?  Because it's that hard for us to pull the wagon?
Good thing we live in a little hick town where people thought it wasn't the greatest idea on earth instead of thinking we are lazy.



It would make more sense for Braden to just ride with Alexa right?
Yup, it would...but apparently he has been ran over by the stupid thing one too many times because he refuses to get in it. :)

That's so awesome and fun! Kids love trains so they are probably both tickled pink with Daddy's ingenuity. It sound like Braden has been effectively trained to avoid moving vehicles or women drivers. :)

Kerri said...

Too CUTE...I love it!

Deanna said...

OK...so I am laughing out loud at this one! Why, because I remember as kids we would come up with the same things (although we had to use our bikes instead of a jeep). Yeah, Matt sure is a creative one.

Jen said...

Oh yes! A super great idea! Don't ever get rid of that wagon. You'll never beleive what they will pull it with in the future....bikes, scooters, etc...
Kids come up with the greatest stuff!

That is so adorable! I love those pictures!

No wonder he doesn't want to go in the car!

Pennie said...

I love it!!! What a great dad to take Braden's fears into serious consideration and come up with a plan. Precious pics, Laura!

Liz Mays said...

Now that is cracking me up that he has to be towed because he won't get in there. SO funny!

Kathryn said...

How cute!! lol.. that is SO something we would do! lol

Lourie said...

Oh my gosh! Hahahaha! That is crazy. Hahaha. But here I am laughing about it.

CM said...

Wow, what a good idea! Look at how content Braden is just riding along, being pulled by his sister. So cute!

Helga said...

That is something my kids would come up with LOL. They look so cute riding together like that.

Unknown said...

That is so funny.....mostly because Henry did the very same thing today with one small exception....make sure you tell Matt that Henry used a bungie cord. Oh and thankfully for me (since we live on a hill) he didn't put Karley in the back. :)

Very cute! I also noticed your new profile picture....beautiful!

Stacey said...

That is funny! What a great idea!

Carrie said...

That is some FUN-NAY stuff! Totally something that my kids would dream up. It is always more fun to do it the hard way than to do what makes sense. And I don't blame Braden for wanting to ride BEHIND the jeep if Alexa is constantly running him over!!! LOL!

Stephanie said...

He wants his own space Mom - I mean really why in the world would he want to ride beside his sister? :)

rachel said...

um, genius!

rachel said...

ps, laura your photos with your new camera are AWESOME!

Amy said...

Oh so genius! Not lazy, you are promoting the oh so important brother/sister relationship. I love it! That is so awesome!

Seizing My Day said...

Oh my gosh that is so funny!! =) clever daddy! I would have laughed if I saw that coming down my street... and asked for a ride!

He & Me + 3 said...

OmGosh that is so cute. I love this idea. I should have done that for walks too. :)

Carma Sez said...

if you could see some of the things my husband has rigged up over the years *cringes*

this idea is not half bad -- plus then you won't throw your back out with pulling that huge wagon ;-)

Gramma said...

This reminds me of the roadtrips to Wichita in the Eagle Wagon...you and Phill had your own "space" so that there was no fighting!!! haha
They BOTH look very content to be where they are...and if Braden feels safer, which I can TOTALLY understand :), then that much better!!!
Good Job Matt!!!

How did I miss this? I was scrolling down to see if I'd missed anything. YEP! "Live in a little hick town"...cracks me up.

Matt has the right idea. If you ever have another, you'll need ingenious help like that. :)
