biking, dancing and photography classes

our family has a new favorite activity. Bike Rides! We have been having so much fun riding our bikes around the neighborhoods. They are all old enough to have a nice long ride and keep up with each other. the kids really love the hills especially! they scream and laugh down the hills, it really cute.
Reed has been having a lot of fun riding the trails here in NM. Reed and his buddy go out and get all muddy and sore and have a blast, it's nice to see him having some time to do something for himself, he works so hard for our family.

Becky gave us her bike trailer and kylie and max really like the ride. I have the trailer hooked to my bike so i can go on rides during the day too. Max is so funny while we ride, he is always the back seat driver. "mom why you stand up?, mom don't hit a car, mom why you go so fast, mom stop you bike." I've decided to bring my ipod from now on.

caleb loves to ride. He will ride his bike everyday when it warms up. you can bet on it.

carson loves to ride too. it's so fun to have older kids.

maia can ride like a pro. we had a little scare the other day, she was getting close to a stop sign and I was yelling maia stop and I saw a truck coming, she didn't stop and the truck was way to close, I was in tears. Needless to say there are new family rules for riding.

here are my babies in the bike trailer. the look so cute back there.

I started a photography class at UMNLA the local college here in Los Alamos. I just had my third class Thursday. It has been really fun to learn more about my camera, light, and the settings on my camera. Its fun to learn again, its been a while since I've been in school :) I'm going to post my homework on my craft blog, HERE

i would love some constructive feed back.

Maia is in a dance class called Scottish highland dancing. It's so adorable to watch. She had her first performance last weekend. She did a great job, i was so proud of her I got teary eyed. Carson told me that was embarrassing.

here is their piper. the perform with a piper, it's so great. I need to upload her video of the performance so you can see her cute little dancing. I'll pull it together for the next post.
