I have outdoor plans this weekend. It’s an event I’ve been anticipating for a couple months now, so I’m hoping the weather pans out for Saturday. As of right now, it’s supposed to be sunny and in the mid to upper 90s — perfect for a 30-mile bike ride to one of the state’s best microbreweries.
In other biking news, Leah gets her bike back today. She had an old frame in the garage from a bike she used to ride years ago, and I had some other misc. parts lying around going to waste, so we sent the mess off to mechanic extraordinaire Kenny Lefler to have him work his magic. I can’t wait to see what he’s come up with. Unfortunately, Leah won’t come along on the ride this Saturday, but the bike will come in handy when she wants to come along on family rides with me and Ava to get ice cream…or whatever.
Speaking of Ava, today is swim day for the two-year-olds at day care! Ava’s very excited. She’s just entered the stage where she fusses when we try to leave her at “school” in the morning, but today one of the workers asked Ava if she wanted to help fill up the swimming pool, and Ava’s face exploded into a big smile (according to Leah). “Yes! Yes!” Leah went inside to drop off a couple things, and when she came back out, Ava was standing at the edge of the pool with a hose in her hand, gleefully filling it up. Leah walked toward the car and said, “Bye bye, Ava,” and Ava just looked over at her with her big smile and said, “Bye bye. See ya!” Well, that was easy. Were only every day swim day.
