BMX track

dh was a 'FUN DADDY' today and took his whole family to a local bmx bike track! you know, w/ lots of packed-dirt hills, jumps, curves, etc. it was a first for this family and the kids (and daddy) LOVED it! all fighting colds, but you know i'm a believer in good fresh air being BENEFICIAL! so, they couldn't get enough! i took my bike, hoping to cross-train by riding ... SOMEWHERE...but not on the race track! well, i rode around for a BIT w/ KK(4) but it wasn't what i'd call cross-training....or even a bike ride! that's okay. i did jog the course one time. nice hills! hurt my shin. hard packed dirt.

the track cleared (all the other 8 or so riders left), leaving just our family....and whatta blast they had! JJ even rode on it after LOTS of coaxing! KK (only 4) even rode it at her own pace, WITH TRAINING WHEELS! she had to get off about 3/4 way up each hill and push her bike, but in the end, SHE is the one who cried when time to go! dh B did it about a million times too! on N's bike! (we brought 2 bikes of N's size) his legs were pure jelly.

so, with snot running down their faces the FINALLY called it quits. we came home and daddy built a fire, mommy made sloppppppy joes, and we called it a fun-daddy day! =)
