Sunday Morning Breakfast Bike Ride

The best things in life just need a little jump start. You have just the littlest thing trigger your mind and the best things can come from that spark.

While starting my ritualistic weekend pancake breakfast I made the discovery that we were completely out of syrup. This caused panic. The first pancake was already complete and cooling on a plate waiting for its sugar bath.

In a rash decision I stated, "Anybody want to pedal to Braum's for breakfast?"

After much applauding, changing of clothes, pressurizing tires, and high fives we were off!

Parking was very spacious at Braum's.



There was a small "snack" after breakfast.



The boy and I got a little bit more tan.



Our navigator made bicycles more fashionable than they have been since they had one giant wheel and one tiny wheel.

Tactical Diver and Mermaid


Tactical Diver

Master of all things aquatic. Can splash and run through water like a seal. Likes to go down slides and jump into pools from the side. Can swim all by himself using 'floaties' attached to the arms.



Mermaid

Enjoys standing in water up to her chest. Clutches to Mommy or Daddy when going through water falls. Pictured in her not-so-favorite new swimsuit. Her preferred swimwear makes her look like a ladybug.

First Long Distance Call for Kate



Kate racked up some minutes on a couple of calls to Granny. There were troubles keeping a connection while Kate utilized Mommy's Crackberry to monitor minutes and adjust the volume. Squeakers hasn't learned to text message yet, thank goodness! But I'm sure that will happen before she turns 2.

Cheers,
Jon
