Oh what we do for our beautiful babies!!Last night the three of us went out in the rain and worked on Jesse's science project. And of course, with Jesse, there's got to be a motorcycle involved!! We measured stopping distances on 3 different surfaces, grass, gravel & pavement. And then calculated the differance in who's riding and the weight of the rider. (so Arlo got to be involved and ride too! He loved that part)
I was nominated to be the official stat keeper. (I didn't get to ride)
Testing the braking power on a grassy surface.
Faithfully measuring.
The real work happened and continued on into the night (11:00 pm) when we started making the poster and computing all the gathered information. What a fun family time we had!!!!

Science projects bring back loads of happy and very fun memories for me when my boys were still home and all involved. But that was a hundred years ago . . . at least it seems like it.
