YEAH! Summer is here and we have been enjoying getting outside to play. Thursday, the playgroup moms and kids met at a local park by Whatcom Falls. (These are the falls above) We had fun letting the kids play and still having time to catch up on each others' weeks. One of my friends has an in-home daycare and she brings all of her kiddos to playgroup. Well the extra bonus for summer is that her recently graduated son is now working for her and was at the park and had all the kids playing games in the field. He is so great with the kids. We also went for a walk down some of the trails and enjoying Whatcom Falls and Whatcom Creek.
Friday, after Dean got home and we ate lunch, we packed up the boys and their bikes and headed to another park at Lake Padden. This was the first ride around the lake that the boys had done. Dean, Jake, and Austin rode quickly around as Griff and I (I walked) took a little more time. Griffen did great around most of the lake as it was fairly flat. The last 1/3 or so was a little hilly and I ended up carrying his little bike up and down a few hills. Just as we were nearing the last hill Dean and the boys came back up toward us and it got Griffen back onto the bike. He was such a trooper!

I'll be so happy when my family can finally go on bike rides like that together. We've tried everything, but Grace won't ride a bike! Trent's already asking to take off his training wheels and will be riding a bike before her probably.
