Toy Drive

I am a little late posting this but On Saturday we did a toy drive for the Mesa Fire Department. It was a lot of fun. We all met at Harley Davidson in A.J. on our Harley's (we borrowed my in-laws). We also had the old station One Fire Truck there as well that drove Santa and led all 100+bikes down university to Station one were we let CPS kids come sit on Santa's lap and pick out toys. It was so cute to see these kids light up when Santa got there and then get to sit on his lap.
I was a little nervous going on a Harley. I have been around the block on one but that was it, so this was a whole new experience for me. I actually really enjoyed myself. I defiantly decided though that street riding was my limits. A few times we had to catch up to the other bikes because we lost them at a light and we had to go VERY fast to catch them....did not like that at all. But I really enjoyed the whole RIDE thing. Not to mention that it was fun too to have a few hours with just Mike and I. We even went and had a nice sit down lunch after the ride.

Us all loaded up and ready to go.
