The Summer Bucket List

One of the things on my "summer bucket list" to do
with Miss M is to ride bicycles more! 
"Nothing compares to the simple pleasure of a bike ride."
~John F. Kennedy - U.S. President
I love to ride my bike --
if you recall, I am a previous bicycle champion!
  Yes, it's true! 
 Anyhoooo -- Maddy got a new bicycle recently
and we hadn't really been out riding much
 as pool time and horse-back riding seem to be interfering a tad bit.

Safety first -- helmet on -- almost ready!

But, we did get out for a ride last night and. . .
It
Was
 Wonderful!


Next up on the list --
 ride the bicycle to DQ or Goodrich
 for a root beer float!!

You guys are going to enjoy riding bikes together. The promise of ice cream at the end always adds motivation.

Our kids love to go for bike rides in the evening after it starts to cool off a little. That rootbeer float looks heavenly. Love the idea of a summer bucket list also.
