After taking a nap to recover this afternoon, we ate a dinner and then Claire went into her room and shut the door. After a few minutes, she emerged, announcing she was heading to "the ball." (At first I thought she said "the bar" and had a mild heart attack.)
The the three of us headed out for bike riding practice. Having accidentally skipped the tricycle and big wheel stages, she's still trying to get the hang of riding a bike, which she got last year from Santa. Thanks to her big noggin, the helmet she got doesn't fit and we still need to go shopping for another -- thus, Dan's close hand.
We took Claire and her pink and purple girly bike over to the park, so she could have a wide open space to practice pedaling and steering (the real challenge).
The original plan was thwarted, though, when we got to the park and all that fun nearby was too much. Claire opted for slides and swings instead of spending too much time on the bike.
Despite the wind, the weather today was near perfect. I wish summer could last forever.

Great photos Kirsten! Yesterday was indeed a perfect "weather" day - just a tad too windy :-) I'd like that temperature and humidity all year long! We had the girls Saturday and Sunday and we spent lots of time outdoors playing softball and taking the girls' 6 "babies" for a nice walk down to the lake in their strollers :-) Claire reminds me of Hannah with all of her glitzy girlie accessories! It sure is fun to watch them isn't it? Take care and keep up the good work!
That's when you're supposed to take pictures for the blog! Glad you had a good weekend with the girls, though!
