Another rider in the family!

Lincoln was doing so great on his strider bike that we figured it was time to start him on a pedal bike. I love watching him ride his strider, but he was dying to pedal. We were sure it would be pretty simple for him and we were right. Piece of cake for him. He got on, Kevin gave him a little push and he was off. The only part that was hard for him was the start and stop. Give him a few hours and he got it all figured out.

As soon as he got the pedal down we took the family on our first official family mountain bike ride.  We went out to Riverside Park and rode a fun single track trail for a few miles and Lincoln did amazing.  We have been waiting for this day for just about 11 years.  We are looking forward to lots of family bike rides.

The Sanders invited us out to their beautiful property for a bbq and some four wheelin.  The kids were in heaven riding the doon buggy and the zipline and the four wheelers.  Josie even tried her hand at driving and she did really well.

The kids love to go to the kids workshop at Home Depot.  If we are in town and Kevin has time he usually takes them, but this Saturday Josie and Lincoln wanted to go so I decided to take them. It was fun to hang out and use a hammer with them.
