Down By the Bay

First Bike Trip

We went on our first 'trail' bike ride with the family on Sunday. It started raining just as soon as we were leaving the house, but it had been so long since David and I have gone riding we decided we would just go in the rain. We all had a blast (minus a few bumps and scrapes) and the rain made it just that much better. We were pretty wet by the time we got home.

One of the few spills that day. The boys still need to learn how to use the bike brakes as opposed to their feet as brakes. We were out on the street practicing that today.

He got a hole in one on this, uh, par one hole.

Oops

Since I haven't posted for a while, and have no new pics to post I'll post these pictures I forgot to post when Joshua and Ethan learned to ride their bikes sans training wheels. And yes, that is a princess helmet. E couldn't find his helmet, and borrowed Averies. He was bound and determined to ride that bike. He wouldn't give up, and he caught on quickly.

And a picture of Carly just because she's cute.

The Lake

Just a few pictures from our afternoon. The water was so cold it hurt, but I've definitely been in colder. The boys found a log and enjoyed playing around on it. They had a great time, but Ben thought it was too cold and didn't want to go in the water at all. Ava didn't want to go in too deep either. I don't blame them, but I sure had fun swimming and floating in the water once I caught my breath.
I can't believe we live here :) This really is the 'best place on earth'.
