No Training Wheels

The twins were inspired by one of their good friends here to learn how to ride their new bikes without the training wheels. So, one evening last week, Sam & I took off the wheels & pushed them on their way. They had it down within the first 20 minutes! We realized then that they were probably ready to master this skill quite a while back. But, they have it down & they are riding around the neighborhood like they have been doing it for years!

Sydney learned how to swim on her own here & now they have both learned how to ride a bike here. The relaxed, outdoor lifestyle we lead here seems to suit us beautifully!
