Cycling w/a little Candy Land thrown in...

 I don't think I mentioned that my husband has taken up bicycling?  He LOVES it and wishes he had discovered it sooner.  He began because he decided he wanted to do the MS City to Shore bike ride.  After spending MONTHS researching bikes & such he finally bought one with money he had inherited when his aunt passed away.  He is slightly with obsessed with cycling now.  Watches it on TV, goes out w/a group once a week, bought a gadget to cycle in the garage now that the days are shorter, and it seems like always buying gadgets/clothing/researching bike races.
   
His other new obsession using the grill as a smoker.  He always seems to enjoy activities  that require  a lot of time & effort.  For example, fly fishing, which has thankfully passed.  So this morning he was up around 6am and off cycling on http://www.schuylkillrivertrail.com/ .

The strong willed wonder and I played a matching picture game, Candy Land, and Hullabaloo.  By 12 I was texting him to get an idea of when he'd be back since I had some things that I wanted to do too. Like shower since I can't always trust the kidlet to stay inside.  She's smart and plans ways to escape and do things like open the garage door so she can run across the street and pet the neighbors dog.  I'm on watch constant fly with her...EXHAUSTING...since it wouldn't be fun to not climb on the kitchen counter or try to steal candy.

This week pre-school and soccer for 3 & 4 year olds begins.  I'm hoping that both go well.
