Riley's Birthday

Since it's been a month, it's time for another blogpost! On May 12, Riley turned 8. He got just one present, a new bike! And since his dad is a cyclist, Riley got a pretty cool bike! We all went to a couple bike shops and rode a few. We were hoping for a Trek, so he could be just like mom and dad, but he really like a Giant, so that is what he got. He can't wait to be able to go ride in the mountains with dad. He sure looks good with his new bike!

(Look at the beautiful dirt behind Riley...it goes well with the neighbors grass, don't you think!? Hopefully soon that beautiful dirt will be cement!)

Since Riley got his beautiful bike, we didn't let him have a birthday party, so we took the family to Boondocks for the day. It was supposed to rain and it was very windy, so not many people went there that day. We got there just after 10 and didn't leave until 6! The first thing we did was ride the go-karts and Riley was the only one on the little track for the first few runs! At first, he was very hesitant, and didn't go very fast, but like most drivers, that didn't last long! Brock couldn't go on the go-karts, but Tyler could ride with either mom or dad. We wished we had had a helper for Brock so we could all go ride at the same time, but it was still lots of fun! Brock's favorite part was the miniature golf and video games. Tyler and Riley loved it all and Tyler keeps saying that he wants his birthday party at Boondocks as well! It was a great day spent with our family!
