1st bike ride...

For my birthday this year, Jeff got us bicycles.  A few months ago, he had suggested saving for bikes that we could get out and ride as a family once it got cooler.  I thought that was a great idea so we did start saving.  Little did I know that was just a ruse -- he had planned to get them for my birthday!

So we're actually saving for a fence.

But getting back to my story,  my birthday fell on a Wednesday and Jeff brought the bikes home from Jacksonville that Friday afterward.   His mom happened to be here during that time (another post about that coming soon) so she was able to get some photos for us of Deacon's first time riding (on the back of) a bicycle.  It was a beautiful day to ride!

The bikes are really nice -- Jeff did a good job picking them out.  They're an easy ride, cruiser style with a few gear shifts.  The seat for Deacon switches between the 2 bikes fairly easily so either one of us can carry him when we ride.  He loves being outside so we think he likes riding pretty good.  The helmet, not so much, but he doesn't whine about it.
