Silly boys

Sometimes when Ben gets home the boys are off the woods or tucked into a book and can hardly notice. OTHER times, they are all over him. They were getting so silly yesterday that I had to grab the camera.

Biking weekend with the boys

This past weekend was a big one! We biked 5.5 miles in Greensboro on some greenways we hadn’t been on before and 18 miles in Winston! A greenway is connected to Salem Lake that is paved and pretty straight–very nice for racing Evan! When we got to Salem Lake we spotted: 70 turtles, 2 blue herons and 4 skinks! We stopped at a super nice water area at the half way point to give everyone time to rest up.

Enjoying break time. I think there is a skink in this picture.

Evan spotted this heron. Nice day for wildlife!

Evan can get quite insulted when we want him to ride behind one of us. Surely he is supposed to always be the leader!

Grayson decided Saturday morning that he wanted to ride without his training wheels. Yeah! The first step was to get him practicing on two-wheeled balance. This picture was our favorite. Check out that expression!
