A Unicycle Christmas

For Christmas, Lain got everyone unicycles! Damian, Landon, Tracy and I got one. Alan already had one but had never learned how to ride it. Lain, Kevin and Shayla have all been able to ride one for awhile and were so excited to give us ours so we could be part of the 'circus'. So, after we opened them on Christmas morning, we all tried our luck outdoors. However, the cold, rain and wind kept us from being out there very long.

By the next day, the sun was out and they were at it again. Damian and Landon got better and better each time they tried and pretty soon were able to go across the driveway. Tracy, Alan and I didn't even get past the garage door. Since then, Landon and Tracy have gone back to Washington, but I don't know if they've been practicing. Alan and I have been sitting on them at least and traveling across the front of the garage, but still not letting go. I would really like to learn and I'm sure I will, but I don't want to have to tell any horror stories about how many times I got hurt while learning!

Woohoo!! Look at em go!
GO LANDON!
