First Mega-Extreme Mountain Bike Ride for H!

On Sunday we did an awesome 5 mile mountain bike ride! H had to do 2.5 miles up, and after much melodrama, we reached the top and it was 2.5 miles of pure downhill awesomeness! No wrecks! 
H learned to persevere!


 Pre-biking project unbeknownst to me! Way to go H!
 Dusty getting ready for the long haul!
 Post-ride drinks at the trailhead!


 Even have mud on the cheek!

 New pads for safety upon H's request!

Butterfly Charmer!

Harvey finally talked me into purchasing a butterfly net. He has been really wanting one for about two years and he got a pretty awesome one. So we headed up Pattee Canyon on the hunt for butterflies. We found lots despite of the cloudy not too hot day.  Harvey was able to calm the butterflies and have them hang out on his hand for a long while. Awesome!

A Dollhouse Found!

After our run/jog/bike ride in Greenough Park this morning we hit a yard sale seeking a basket for Harvey's bike. No luck with the basket, however we did get an amazing deal on a dollhouse. H has been wanting one for ages and this was perfect. The minute we got hit home he wanted to decorate it (he never wants to do this) so I said go for it. The art bin came out and H had a blast painting, glitter glueing and using markers. It is a work in progress with touches from Eric and me. E and I have been staining boards for the new fence today.
