The moment you've all been waiting for!

My new bike is here! This bike's first trip out of Mike's Hike and Bike - the retailer of the Madsen bike (bucket or rack) in the southeast!


Me taking my first ride. I'm headed down Main Street to pick up the girls.

Taking her for a spin with the family. After I ride more, I'll give a report of how it rides. But my first reaction is that it's great. The ride is stable (except when the girls are next to each other on the back seat pushing and shoving each other). The hills weren't too bad - although I didn't go up a monster hill like Mike did. He took his 230 (or so) pound brother for a ride up a very steep hill behind the store.


On other notes. We went to the zoo recently. Although the following picture isn't in focus, it is still a great memory of Kenna feeding the giraffe. For those of you who don't know, she has a momma and baby pair of giraffes that she carries around with her quite a bit. She had them in the stroller that day and held them up so they could see the real giraffes.


Just a cute picture of me and my Moxie boy.


He's not crawling yet, but he can maneuver his way around most any room. Of course at this point, he doesn't always go the direction he wants. I walked into the girls' room this evening and he was under Kenna's bed doing pull-ups on the foot board - no I'm not kidding! I wasn't quick enough with the camera. He was all the way under the bed and chewing on the sheet by the time I got back.



All my kids - oh and Michael too.
