We got some new bikes (& a bike trailer), so we've been enjoying taking those out for rides on the trails near our house (there are lots of them around us...) We've just been going on short rides so far (around 2 or 3 miles). It had been about 10 or 12 years since either of us had ridden, so it's been fun to be getting back used to riding and switching gears and all of that. Julia's been riding some in the bike seat on my bike and some in the trailer with Gracie. (A couple times, she's climbed right up into the bike seat all on her own...she's a little monkey!) Chloe has been doing really well riding. She's been riding her own bike and has enjoyed it immensely. It's been a fun family activity for us!!
We've been out walking the trails some too. Here are pictures from a weekday when Gracie, Julia, & I went out on a trail to the dam at the lake near us. Gracie & Julia had a great time running around and throwing rocks in the lake before we headed back down the trail.
I couldn't believe she got this far into the water. It was COLD!! It was only in the 60s outside (& had been down around freezing for a few nights before this), but she didn't seem to mind the cold water. She was having a blast finding rocks to pick up and throw. (Thankfully, I had spare clothes with us...otherwise she'd have been miserable on the way back to the car)

Looks like a lot of fun! Can't wait for the family get-together in July and all the girls throwing rocks and having other lake fun all together!
So fun to see pictures of your family taking advantage of the spring weather and the outdoors. What a great family activity to be biking together!!
