Lexi's one request for her birthday was that we go on a bike ride, so on Memorial Day we loaded up the bikes in Brad's new truck and headed to Huntington Beach. It was the perfect day!
We decided on Huntington so that Libby could ride her bike, too. She was the star of the trail!
Her little legs were just a-going, going, going the whole time. We figured she'd get all tuckered out at some point and we'd park and lock her bike up, then put her in the trailer with Lexi or in the seat behind me. But, much to our surprise, she rode the whole way to the pier - a good 3 miles or more, and BACK all by herself! What a trooper!
It was slow going at first, but after a bit, Libby decided racing Pops was a great game. He's way up ahead at this point, so she better catch up quickly!
Daddy and his cute girls! As you might imagine, we got lots of comments from everyone (and it was packed) on how cute they were!
We stopped for a nice lunch on Main St and Libby claimed that we should all start calling her "Libby, the most awesome bike rider in the world!"
Making glasses out of some fun wax-stix. Then, it was back to pedaling. We rode for awhile, stopped any played on the beach, then trekked back to the car. Over 6 miles of riding (and a whole lot of playing), and this was one tired girl by the end of the day!
What a great call, Lexi - thanks for the great idea for a much needed day off for all of us!
So proud of both of those girls. Love em!!!
