So I thought I would post some pictures of some fun activities from last summer.  We do a lot of biking in the summer.  I was a part of a women’s weekly road ride last summer which was a blast.  We usually did a 30 mile loop and there were 5-8 riders on average.  And for date night Blayne and I got out on our bikes together once a week.  Iris got a little cross bike so she’ll be ready for the triathalons she wants to try this summer!  So here are a few bike pictures to keep me dreaming for the summer.  Of course, I’ll be having a baby in June so this summer I won’t have as much bike time (maybe in the fall) but Iris and Blayne will.  I won’t be able to just throw the twins in the trailer and take off anymore….3 small ones will be interesting!

The first picture is of my lovely road bike.  Currently, it is up in our bedroom on a trainer for me to ride.  It was such a nice bike and I’ll miss it this summer.  Blayne was talking about which bike he wants me to ride this summer, I suppose I’ll have to show off the new bikes and keep it current since B owns a road bike store, but really I just want to keep this one.  Maybe I can convince him to keep the frame for me, for sentimental purposes.

The next pictures are just various pictures of biking from this summer.  Nothing spectacular (I need to become a better photographer!) but it’s nice to remember our biking and the warm weather and the green grass and the green trees and the bright sun.

We had a blast! Kira and Iris loved the water and sand and plunged right in with the fun. Tavie took a bit of warming up and didn’t really start playing in the sand until it was almost time to go. She seems to have a thing for getting messy and certain textures. The thing being she doesn’t like it.

Tavie not happy about the beach. She didn’t want to get off the beach towel or play in the sand.

Iris dove right into the sand and water.

Kira loving the sand.

Tavie sitting on her towel and that is as far as she went for a long time. She seemed content to sit and watch and contemplate the goings on of the universe.

What a good big sister!

Okay, maybe I’ll try the sand a little. But don’t ask me to sit in it or get in the water.
