Bikes and Beanie

When the kids were little, I bought them balance bikes because they seemed to be all the rage and I didn't want my kids to miss out.  I mean, I never learned to ride a bike as a kid, so I didn't want to deny my kids the opportunity and if this was how they could do it best, so be it.

Of course, the bikes were too big for them, so they sat in the garage for a year…until now.

Oh, and of course there's the new hand-me-down croquet set to play with in the back yard.

And then we got to take Bean for a walk! Uncle's girlfriend's sister's dog, Bean (or Beanie, to the kids) is a ball of white fluff with whom Caroline, particularly, is in love.
