We have finally gotten a taste of spring thank goodness! Last Sunday we had a beautiful day. So after we took care of some errands and chores around the house, we packed up the bikes and headed to the trails in Spring Valley. It was Mallory's first biking adventure. I can remeber the first time we took the other girls biking for the first time. She was very content riding in a seat on my bike for a while. Then we put her in the tow-behind with Molly. We were hoping she would konk out for a nap, but she didn't want to miss anything. Molly is still happy to hitch a ride in the tow-behind. She is doing a great job on her big girl bike riding around our neighborhood. But she is not quite ready for the bike path yet. We are thinking about getting an attachment that hooks to Duane's bike for her. She isn't going to fit in the toe-behind much longer. Madison impressed us with how well she did on her bike. She set the pace and never complained once about being tired or sore. We made it about 9 miles. For the second time on the trail, I rode over a snake! Anyone close to me knows how I feel about snakes. Even if they are only 12 inches long. YUCK! We had a great ending to our trip. When were were packing up the bikes, we almost got to see a hot air balloon launch. They were just about ready to go and decided the wind wasn't quite right. What we did see was really cool! We're looking forward to many more bike trips this spring and summer.
