Brian
at age 9. Stronger than a locomotive,
faster
than a speeding bullet....
Christmas
97', a new drum set is added to the gifts.
Brian's
foot was in a cast for 6 weeks,
after
running into the couch! We ride the
ATV
in our yard, lots of fun in winter.
We
came across this nice bigfoot
truck
at a car show in Cape Cod.
Kindergarden
graduation, St. Madeleine Sophie School.
Brian
and Grandma, posing with the helicopter
we
watched land. Brian came within 2 seconds
of
winning a vacation to Florida that day,
in
a DARE race sponsered by K-MART.
Brian
always woke up early, and
his
little feet hit the floor running.

Brian
started racing at Tri Cities BMX this summer, lots of fun, those kids
are
fast.

Brian,
Shawn and a friend at Tri Cities BMX. Track is really nice, well laid
out,
nice concession stand, a really wholesome place, just what you would
expect
for Rotterdam.

One
of the pro racers at Tri Cities BMX. Some of these kids have been
racing
since they were 4 years old.

We
ride the ATV in the woods a lot. This spot is near the microwave
towers,
up the hill from the gun club property.

A
new Schwinn racing bike. Brian earned the money for this himself.

The
finish line. This is where you see if all that practice has paid off

This
set of jumps is at the end of the starting ramp, so the riders have a
lot
of speed by the time they reach it.

Brian's
#1 First Place trophy. He placed 1st in all 3 motos to get this, the
first
time of the season. Tri City doesn't give trophies for the Main, which
some other tracks do.

This
was Brian's 12th birthday present. I sort of got tired of the junky R/C
cars at the toy stores. This is the real thing. Traxxas T-Maxx .15
nitro!

This

cars, they ran well. Brian's didn't win anything,
but his time was good.

Some
serious air on the ATV! You can hardly see the pole that was supporting
him for the shot.

Lishakill
Band had a performance
at a
local mall around the holidays.
The
band plays out a lot, which
is good
experience for the members.

The
T-Maxx, brand new. It hasn't looked like this for awhile, and now we
are
into the stage where everything is being upgraded with newer and / or
faster
parts.
