See my happy smiling "before the ride" face
These two LOVED the bike trailer
One of them always has the "can't see/sun is too bright" face going on.....
Bill drove along taking pictures and recording the fun....
he claimed he would have joined us if he had a bike....
I'm not so sure.
Mason and Madden kicked my butt....
it was a piece of cake for them
Now see my "i'm gonna die/why in the world did I have this great idea" face
when we finally pulled up to the breakfast...
The first 2.5 miles were up hill.
Not a steep hill...but a hill nevertheless.
AND I was pulling TWO really FAT kids.....
AND the wind was blowing AT us....
AND....
Okay,fine....my kids are feather weights
and I am completely and pathetically out of shape!!
Good thing coming home was all down hill, because I rode "side saddle style."
You know....like a lady in a dress back in the day riding a horse.
MY BUTT HURT SOOOO BAD!!
Truly, I wanted to cry.
It was, however, the first time in my life that I was grateful for the
extra padding I've added to my behind over the years.....
infact, it got me thinking....
sure, I could buy a new big fat padded bike seat....
OR I could simply work on putting more padding on the rear end I already own.
I think the latter sounds more appealing!
Mar slept the whole way home...the lucky duck!

Ha ha I love reading your blog cause it makes me so excited to have more kids!! And u are always doing the cutest things with your family! Glad memorial day was memorable even if it was a sore butt the next day!
Yeah, I ALWAYS make Matt pull the trailer whenever we go for bike rides. I'm such a wimp! Bill definitely needs a bike:)
So funny! We just got a bike trailer and I am itching to try it out. If only the weather would get a little dryer for us. I'll be sure to not go up any hills!
I am laughing so hard right now. You are seriously hilarious. I've had a plan similar to yours, except I would be the "Bill" in our relationship and then Chad would be the one hauling Charlie and riding along with the girls.
However, I am so super impressed with you. That's a LONG way to travel, especially hauling that "trailer" behind ya.
look at you go!! I am so impressed!
Haha I love this idea! I totally am going to do this. I disagree with you having extra padding though. You just keep getting thinner & thinner every time I see you.
Is Macks giving a peace sign in the picture where you arrive at the breakfast? Ha ha awesome! Way to go!
Oh & next time wear different shoes haha:)
HAHAHAHA! Love that pic of you at the end! Priceless! I think I have a girls camp picture of you wearing that same face after our hike!! (tiff again!) :)
