meg rides a bike


Meg has been working really hard at riding her bike with no training wheels. Check out her form and style (Ellie was providing some coaching as well!). We want to be able to head out for family bike rides this summer all together. Somehow, I think that I will be the weakest link!
Otherwise in April... Ellie started back up soccer (no pictures yet), Meg is finding her edge in hockey and Henry is rediscovering fishing (its still a little cold but he headed out anyway). Dave continues to build his 9-hole contribution to Northside Elementary. He and our PhysEd teacher have cooked up a benefit evening of putt-putt golf, snacks and a movie. Another school year at Michigan is wrapping up for me - its been a tough third year but I have a good plan for the summer and hope to have lots of progress to report come September. 
Tonight there is a chance of flurries BUT my irises, lilies and sorrel are all a couple of inches out of the ground AND my peonies and lilacs promise fragrant days ahead.
