A Breath of Fresh Mid-Winter Air

Saturday morning we woke up and enjoyed the already warming weather.
Mike went for an early morning walk. The whole family (kitties included) enjoyed sitting on the porch and enjoying bright mid-morning light pouring in.
We even let the kitties outside and Spike quickly zeroed in on a small patch of grass near the garage he could eat.

After gymnastics Adam, Amy, and I headed over to the Village Peddler to look at kids’ bikes. I had gotten it in my head that it was important to get Adam a 2 wheel bike (with training wheels) to enjoy the warm weather. Adam picked out a blue Trek bike (20” frame). He was so excited he tried to ride around in the store. As soon as we got home we got ready to go on a bike ride. I pulled my bike down and put some air in the tires.
