We decided to forgoe a trip to the water park, fearing the water may be too cold and a possibility of rain, and opt for a bike ride instead. We loaded up all the bikes and drinks and headed down to The Big Dam Bridge. Hayden had a little trouble gettingup to the top but made it! I must admit my thighs were throbbing, too! But, we made it and got a good view of boats and fishermen, not to mention a lesson from Brian on how the boats comeup and they raise the water for them to get to the other side. :) We headed down going 90mph of course. All of us but Hayden are just coasting down, but not him. He has got the pedal to the medal. It was too cute. He hunkers down and grits his teeth and is pedaling just as fast as his feet can keep up with the natural spinning of the wheels coming down from such a big ramp. He was flying. I was just worried he would plow over another person. We made it down and continued along side the river until almost the Burns Park soccer fields. We decided we better turn around when Hayden started complaining of his "feed burning" and he was hot. So after pouring water over their head, they were ready to head back. We had a good time and hopefull I lost some lbs. On our way home, we stopped by to visit Brian's grandparents and the kids raided the piggy bank, as usual. We had a great day together. Hope everyone else enjoyed their Labor Day, too!
