Bike Ride Fun

Since it was so nice outside last night, we decided to take advantage of the gorgeous weather.  We took the girls on a bike ride.  They love riding their bikes.  The hard part is that we live on a busy street, so we have to go down to grandpa and grandma's road to ride.  Not the easiest road to ride on, either.  I have noticed that most back roads in Indiana are not flat all the way across.  They slowly rise from the shoulders to form a hump in the middle of the road.  Our girls don't know how to ride without training wheels just yet.  They're getting close.  But it's hard when we don't have any flat surfaces to ride on.  Oh well.  It'll happen.  We gave them an incentive, though.  If they can learn to ride their bikes without training wheels before August, then they get to take their bikes to Mimi and Papa's house in NY and go on a bike ride with them.  Mimi and Papa love to bike and are looking forward to that trip.  Anyway, here's our motley little crew before we left (minus daddy, mommy and the dogs).

It's supposed to be even warmer here today (in the 80's).  Maybe we'll take the girls to the park tonight and bring the bikes with us.  I'm loving this weather!!!
