We are a bike riding family! Natalie finally learned how to successfully pedal her bike at the end of September. We've been riding around the lake ever since. Fall is my favorite time of year. I love the clear skies and sunny days. I love the trees turning colors. It just makes me want to go camping every weekend. But since Jordan is working and very busy on our house right now, I will have to settle for bike rides. It comes pretty close. I got Melanie a toddler seat so she can ride on the back of our bike. She looks a little unsure in this picture, but that's because this was her first ride - she loves it now! She even goes to sleep sometimes. I can remember riding around on the back of my mom and dad's bikes in seats similar to this one. I wonder if Melanie will have memories of this. I know Natalie will. Poppi (my granddad) passed away last October, and my Grandmom gave us his bicycle. I have absolutely loved having it to ride around. I'm so grateful that she gave it to us. Every time I ride it, I think of him. He was a wonderful grandfather, and I'm so blessed that he was mine.
