Santa Clarita Skate Park

Austin turned 14 in March.  He decided he is too old to have a "birthday party", but thought it would be cool to load up Miss B. Haven and head down to Santa Clarita to a well known skate park.

Getting there was half the fun!  The guys tried out their tricks in the back of the moving bus, just to see if they could.

They had a couple of GoPros and had fun getting some video and laughing with their friends. 

Just as things started to settle down and I thought we would have a peaceful ride the rest of the way there...

Someone had a "GREAT" idea...   Jason looked out his rear view mirror and saw this:

Misbehavin' over the Grapevine and entertaining commuters!

I felt like I needed a loud speaker like on the rides at Disneyland! "Please keep your arms in legs inside until the ride comes to a complete stop."  It didn't stop me from snapping a few pictures though!

After three hours of rowdy bliss, we arrived at the skate park.  I have to say, it was pretty cool! (And super clean!)

It was awesome watching these guys!!  I had no idea you could do so many tricks on scooters and skateboards.

We only had a few wipe outs and one collision.  A bigger kid on a bike actually took Drew out!  Drew popped right up like a champ and gave the chin nod "It's okay".  He is one tough kid and totally held his own with this crowd that was a few years older than him!

I think we made it out with only 2 scrapped knees.  I got the "I told you so" look from the boys because I have given them a hard time about not wearing helmets.

We had such a good time being a fly on the wall with these guys!

And if Miss B can survive this group of boys, I think she is up for anything!
