Spring Bikes
We got Daniel and Macey new bikes this year...with gears! Macey's has 6 and Daniel has them on both sides...18 I guess. Macey insists that she can't really tell the difference but I think she's full of baloney. Daniel agrees that this bike is better. We plan to do some biking this summer and we started out by taking Daniel on his first official "bike ride"...the MN Ironman! Josh did not get a new bike but there are about 10 bikes in our garage that he can choose from...girl and boy bikes for any size child from 2 to 9...Josh will never want for a bike. However, there are no training wheels that fit so we're on the adventure of teaching him to ride without them. He is catching on but not there yet. Teaching them to bike is so fun...there's that magic moment when they just GET it and can take off on their own. One of the magical moments of parenthood in my opinion.
Note that in these pictures there is no snow on the ground. This weekend when I bought them the bikes, we thought we were almost there. Little did we know that we still had a month+ of snow coming to us...and that month included somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 or 40 cumulative inches of snow. The snowiest April on record. Oh, and the snow the first couple of days of May was fun too. Today is May 7 and hopefully we are now past it and can look forward to warm days ahead. PLEASE let it be so!!!
