bike rides & birthdays :)

kennedie is still not psyched about the 'strider' bike, but is pedaling like a pro on her tricycle! 

we thought we would just ride over to the brummer's house this morning to help them celebrate cayle's 2nd birthday...good idea right? especially since it was a bike birthday party!

however, we got about a block & a half from our house, & it began to rain :( luckily, we were near the park that happens to have a covered area for eating/parties, which worked much like a track for kennedie to continue her biking. she rode, chasing daddy, round & round the picnic tables again & again & again! we thought we'd wait it out, but it never blew over. so daddy went back to get the car, kennedie had a little snack, then we were on our way again :)

once we made it to the party, kennedie had a great time - we all did! kennedie played a little basketball, drove around cayle's car, found & adopted a baby (which she fed, rocked, swung, and put to bed), had lunch & helped mommy decorate her bike! once her bike was ready to go, she got on & pedaled along while her friends cruised on their striders :) she loved being on her bike & even kept going once the ride/parade was concluded & it was time for cake!!

chatting with charlee - it was her b-day too!

the whole crew!

after we made it home from the party - all that bike riding took its toll! kennedie took a 3 1/2 hour nap & mommy had a little nap too :) we look forward to lots of biking fun with our friends this summer :)
