Bike Ride

We found Lilly a bike for $3 and then paid $15 for training wheels :) Lilly loves riding her bike. It's so neat to see her light up and just cruise and really enjoy riding her bike. Yesterday Mike had to work on some projects for school so Lilly and I headed up to the local waterfall. Of course it was wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too crowded, but I found a sweet parking spot, that really helped me deal with the crowds.
We started our picnic out with subway, and some people watching. We thought for a minute that we should of brought Bryn (our dog) but I quickly changed my mind once Lilly got on her bike. There is no way I could of watched Lilly and had Bryn with me. Lilly is a wild child on her bike. She would cruise around yelling "watch out here I come" and then make a siren noise. It was hillarious! We made a few pit stops along the way (mainly so I could catch my breath) and Lilly added a little flower power to her bike.It rainned a ton Sunday, so the river was really high and very fast. Lilly was pretty impressed with it.
We made it to the waterfall! Lilly didn't really care about the waterfall, all she wanted to do was collect rocks. She thought it was cool that I just let her walk in the river, thank heavens for keen sandals :) We had a total blast and I am looking forward to taking more bike rides this summer.

That sounds like fun. Wish we still had that kind of energy!
