Biking Fun

Sparta Elroy Bike Trail. Lily and Lucy have new bikes and the boys are 2 wheel experts so our plan this year for birthday fun was to meet in the middle in the town of Wilton and go for a ride! Stacey and Shelby were the crazy ladies that rode with us as part of the Piney Q MacDougal MS Bike Team. So now that the kiddos are older we are training them for the insanity! We started with a 4 mile (round trip) ride to the old train tunnel on the Sparta Elroy Trail. With every cute picture the boys asked for a crazy photo. And they are off! the boys took off and left the girls in the dust. You wait til next year boys when we have our training wheels off! The kids rocked on the ride, occasionally we needed a rest, but everyone does!Stacey, sporting the new rode bike took off pulling the Burley. There was no kids in the trailer but a 4mo puppy, Sunshine Tinkerbell. We made it to the train tunnel where we got off the bikes and walked. Everyone have their lights?Walk towards the light! The kids thought it was super cool to walk in the dark! We made it through...now to head back. Sunny was a fantastic dog in the burley...there is no way that Wini would tolerate that non-sense. Future Piney Q team! Maybe next year we will make it to the super long tunnel! Back at home it was time for some belated birthday fun! A tower of cupcakes with candles for all of the kids years. (5+5+6+6)Sunny and Wini met and became....well, not the best of friends. Watching a young puppy made us realize how much of an old lady Wini has become. Slow moving, grey hair and no patience at all for the silly things that Sunny wanted to do. Our first co-ed slumber party. Dont think this will be a thing we do in about 10 years. The girls thought this was fun until Lily came down and said that Peter was sticking his stinky feet on her. So they went to the other room.Thanks ladies for coming down! We had a blast.!
