Ever wonder how we get around these days?

Well, after Mya was born ( a month or so later) we rode our bikes like this- with Kenadi on her bike.  We liked that fine, but Kenadi can only make it so far- so we added the seat on the back of my bike and it works great! 


 This week I took the kids to Kenadi's dance practice and to the Library with our new set-up.  It was tiring because I'm out of shape, but it wasn't so bad.  
The little bundle of blankets is Mya.  


 AND now we own horses and ride all over town on them.

We herd cattle and work the ranch on them.

Ok, that is just in my dreams.  ONE DAY we will do those things.  Until then we ride other peoples horses and visit the cowboy museum.

Lets see... there are lots of times in the day that I am carrying Mya around in my arms or in my wrap or sling.  She seems to like it.  It is very handy.

We bought a mini van.  I NEVER wanted to own one, but now it is such a luxury to me.  I love it and I'm not embarrassed about it either.  I even had some guy hit on me in my mini van!  What kind of guy hits on a mini van driver? I thought that was strange.


 We've been having beautiful weather, and Kenadi and Emma love to get around on their bikes.  

Randy's birthday is tomorrow (May 7th) and he's the big 3-0!  SO, happy birthday honey. I love you!

I loved that post! So cute!
Don't you feel like one big chauffeur, day in and day out! Whether it be by car, bike, or back. :)
And Randl: You've had a birthday shout hurray! We want to sing to you today. One year older and wiser too. Happy Birthday, to you!
(ok, so I've been in Primary for a while, but you get the point.)
Have a great day!

I think the bike setup is great! And about the minivan...Josie owns one, too, and being a momma to 4 kids, she seems to think it's great.
It's only a matter of time before Keith and Jamie get one. You'll have lots of good company from afar!
