Warmer Weather at Last

Finally, a day in the 50s!  This year spring seems to be taking its time, I guess I've gotten used to the last few years of outdoor activities in March.  Finally, a beautiful day, not warm but warmer. (Notice that just yesterday she made a snowman with PopPop!)  We decided to take Allison to the park to play, and we brought her bike along.  We parked the car about a half mile from the playground, and Allison started to ride.

She was a little tentative at first, but she got the hang of it very quickly.

There was just one time when she was going downhill too fast and forgot all about the brakes, with Mom running along in a panic behind.  Her Uggs were kind enough to help her stop.

Finally we reached the play area and she could shed her coat and helmet and get down to some real fun!

She wasn't really interested in leaving the park, but she was willing to ride the bike back to the car.  I thought it might be too much uphill riding, so I had walked back to the get the car.   We convinced her it was time to go by reminding her that she was having a sleepover at Pop-Pop and Gram's.  It was such a nice taste of spring time weather to come!
