Lillie's first big bike ride

Still getting caught up - this is from mid August when we took a family bike ride.  This was Lillie's first big ride on a path and for a distance.  We ended up riding about 6 miles and she did great. We chose a path we hadn't ridden before where the first section was really nice and then the second section had been flooded so it was a little less nice.  There were some cool tunnels and at one point a large snake.  Quite an exciting day.

She was SO excited - here she is on the first part of the path.

Here she is in action - I was a little nervous she was going to run too far to the right and land in the canal.

We got to a point on the yuckier part of the path where we couldn't go any further.  Right after we made the turn Lillie took a fall and skinned her knee pretty badly.  But Lillie being Lillie got right back on her bike and got back at it.  She took off on me and zoomed right up to catch the leaders of the pack.

This is how we biked the remainder of the ride - fun to be all together.

 We packed lunch and ate after our ride.

The littles had special Poli Korean drinks.

We ran over to check out a park that had recently been completely renovated.  It got two thumbs up from all three!

And then why not stop at DQ for some surprise treats?!?!

Home for more outside time - neighbors had a lemonade stand and someone was pumped to snag a glass.

She tried her hand at a little basketball.

Paul had been playing at a friend's house and came zipping home on a teeny tiny bike.  This made me laugh so hard.

Super fun day with lots of outside time and family time together.
