Bike Ride

Today we went on a bike ride. We originally planned to head down and bike on the trails that follow the Boise river and then stop at the zoo. As with most things plans didn't go as planned. Of course bike rides never do the first time you get them out after the long winter....flat tires. We went to the store and got one of those child seats for Miss Delayna and a helmet. After we got everything working it was later than expected so we decided to stay in Nampa and bike on the greenbelt here. We finally found a part of the trail that was longer than 100 feet. The kids started out strong but seeing how it was the first ride of the year they got tired. Braydon's bike is a little small for him...I think he actually works 10x harder than the rest of us do but he is a trooper. Mike went back the playground with Abby, Braydon, and Delayna while Alyssa, Al, Cailah, and I scouted out the trail. I think it is going to be a good beginner trial for us to take to get the kids warmed up for a summer full of biking fun. Now I just need to get Alyssa and I Kayaks and we'll be ready for summer.

We started off with the kids entertaining themselves outside while Mike, Al, and I got the bikes all ready...ok mostly Mike.


Then the bike ride began!!!






More fun at the park!!
I ended up with a little back ache after our trip...I think from this picture I know why
If that is not one of the best pictures depicting fun, joy, and happiness I'm not sure what would...ok and static.
They really do love each other and have tons of fun!!
Yes....the mom's are fun too.

Ryan this one is for you. I've still got it!!! :O)

Kristin - I'm so impressed with the somersault on the swing! And your bike ride sounded fun. I can't wait to get back on our bikes . . . once all the snow melts. Maybe in another month or so.
