We decided to spend a beautiful Sunday together as a family, skipped out of church and went south to the Provo River Trail. We parked just below Bridal Veil Falls and rode the 2.5 miles up to Vivian Park. After playing on the playground for a few minutes, we headed back down the canyon. The kids did great on the ride except for the occasional yelling about who gets to be the leader. Summer wiped out once. She was riding close to the edge of the trail, looked the wrong way for a second and when her front tire hit the soft dirt, it stuck and she flipped right over. Luckily she was going slow so it wasn't bad. No tears and just a small scrap on the knee. Noah had a bigger wipe out in the circle this morning as we were getting ready. We didn't see that one, just heard the crying and saw the little body tangled up with Major Trouble out in the street. He landed right on his head, his helmet has a nice scrape/indention where he hit. He got a little scrape on his cheek and his eyebrow but now he thinks he's tough.
On the way down the canyon we stopped and payed in the water at the waterfall then had a nice picnic back near the car. The weather was just gorgeous so naturally Dave took a nap on the blanket.
Remember the last post about the REI bike deal? Well we got a call from REI a few days later and apparently we had won some drawings. Dave won a new bike saddle and Ted (apparently they couldn't read Dave's writing) won a really nice fleece lined riding jacket.
Here is some video of Major Trouble in Action
