November 1st

Sunday was such a nice day we decided to walk down to the lake

There were a few boats out playing on the water

Elle probably will grow up to say we never take her anywhere, as she usually falls asleep.  However, these pictures will serve as proof we do actually go places :)

On the way back we paused for a picture and so Colby could figure out how far we had walked.  Turns out it is 1.5 miles from the house so 3 miles round trip.  Not too shabby.

Back at home and still asleep.

I can ride my bike with no handle bars

Okay, so maybe I can't ride my bike with no handle bars but I plan to work up to it! Today Colby and I took out our brand spanking new Christmas present bikes! It was so much fun riding a round the neighborhood and lake!

My bicycle is a beach cruiser and Colby's is a mountain bike. Don't you just love my white wall tires?

Colby got the hang of riding right away, while I was another story... I promise I didn't ride the entire time with my eyes closed but a few times as I was scared!

The fog was lifting off the lake as we rode by. It was a beautiful scene.

Riding back into the development I was feeling much more confident. We plan to pick up helmets the next time we are out. Thanks Mom and Daddy O, Tracy, Wes, Sophie, and Ceci for the kick butt bicycles!

Blue Sky! We opened up the windows when we got back from the ride and aired out the house! Sure smells like spring! Yippee!
