We went for a family bike ride on the Sumner trail. We went 7 miles in and 7 miles back. Piece of cake for Richelle. Phillip was a champ. We pulled the trailer just in case he needed a break and let him ride his bike. He rode about 10 miles of the 14 miles. We were impressed especially when he had only been riding without training wheels for about a month.
One of his cousins ended up riding in the trailer and Dallin, always needing an extra challenge, pulled the trailer on Dad's bike. (Poor Dad was left to Dallin's some what shorter bike, he was a champ too.)
It turned out to be a beautiful day for a nice bike ride. We enjoyed seeing cousins and getting out in the fresh air for a bit.
We rode to the Park and had lunch there before we turned around and rode back to the parking lot. 
When we were just about back to the car Phillip kept stopping to walk for a bit and then he finally said,"Mom, by butt really hurts." I bet it did so I hung his bike on mine and Phillip, Angela and I walked for the little distance that we had left.
We decided on that ride that Phillip was a bit small for his bike. So, the next day we got out Dallin's old bike that had been run over and straightened it up so that Phillip could give it a try. He rides it great.
It is so fun to see our kids growing up.
