Summer Fun

Summer has finally arrived in Seattle and we were all excited to get out and enjoy the nice weather. Today was the annual summer solstice parade and it seemed to be the perfect thing to do. We decided to ride our bikes and take Maddie on the maiden voyage in her bike trailer. We were a bit concerned that she wouldn't like it, or rather, she wouldn't like wearing the helmet, but she seemed to really enjoy the ride. We mostly rode on a local trail (I'm not really comfortable taking Maddie on the road in the trailer.) and arrived just in time to watch the parade start. Eric wore Maddie in the front pack and she had a great view of the parade. She seemed to really enjoy all of the colors and sounds as the parade participants and floats went by. It was then time for Maddie's nap, so we rode home. All in all, it was a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon and we can't wait to go on many more biking adventures!
