More warm weather for May so you know what that means, more bike rides. I rode the SL Century again this year with my sisters. We rode 70 miles, which was just about perfect. My bum was a little sore, but other than that the ride was great. The weather was beautiful and it always makes me so happy to be able to do a sport where you get to see the beauty of Utah. Who knew north Salt Lake and south Davis Counties were so pretty.
The boys love playing. We went to the park a lot. We have been trying to hit different parks around Herriman and their favorite parks are ones that have slides and sand. Whenever we go we make sure to take some buckets and spoons so that they can dig in the sand. There new favorite toys are some .50 cent cars I bought at a garage sale. As I'm typing this, the landscaper is outside working on our yard. I can not express how excited I am to get grass and have somewhere for the boys to play.
Caleb has been saying 'no' to everything lately. Do you want to watch tv? "No TV", he says. Do you want an apple? "No Apple". Mike was talking to him and told him he needs to say yes more. He said, "No Yes".
Whenever Caleb gets mad he snorts though his nose and gives you the stink eye. I have no idea where he picked it up from.
Whenever Owen sees something he really likes, he says, "Love it". Both boys are getting pretty at sharing with each other. However, sharing with other people besides the two of them, needs improvement. Whenever Owen goes into the pantry to get himself a snack he will get Caleb one too. I'm glad they look out for each other.
We bought big wheels for Owen and Caleb and they LOVE riding them. We have a big hill that goes down to the next street that they ride down. However, they tend not to listen very good when they get on their bikes. They want to ride around the block and even when I tell them no, I still find them half way down the street.
We stayed home over the Memorial Day weekend. While it was raining on Saturday, we got a project done around the house. We put an epoxy shield on the garage floor. On Monday we went to the Herriman Memorial Chuck Wagon Breakfast and then I went on a ride with some girls in the neighborhood. That evening we went to a BBQ with the Slade Family. The boys love playing with their cousin and I love getting together with the family. I am so grateful to those who have served and those who
held homes together while they served. We are so blessed to have so much freedom and to live in such a wonderful country.
