I can ride my bike with no training wheels...no training wheels...

Matt enjoyed a week with no school as spring break came. Although we didn't go on any fun crazy trip the weather worked out wonderfully. Matt and I were able to take the boys to a local park (which is huge that includes 2 playgrounds, multiple running trails, a lake for swimming, and golfing and campsites) where we spent hours playing with the kids and then going for a run together with the stroller. One particular run we decided to go offroading (big mistake) the trail said it was a mulitpurpose trail, but it was not meant for a double jogger. On the other hand it was an extremely intense workout as we pushed the stroller over tree roots, up hills that felt like mountains and squeezing in between trees while admiring the deer (we saw four of them pretty up close). The kids laughed the whole way because it was so bumpy, they also made the comment that they liked it when Daddy pushes better because they crash less. (I didn't think I crashed once!)
Anyway the biggest highlight of the week is that Stephen learned how to ride a bike without training wheels. He got it on his first try!! Such a pro!! (the one in the blue helmet is stephen the red helmet is Jack)




Next week Stephen starts baseball and they get pretty serious in his league. We were informed that he has to wear an athletic supporter. :)
