The 4th was spent bike riding around beautiful Lake Coeur d Alene with the Dickerhoof fam, Scarlett experiencing another first while riding in a bike trailer (she didn't like it very much to be honest). There were ups and downs, but it was such beautiful scenery that nothing could ruin our trip...screaming babies, bloody noses and all!! We drove down to the lake and road about 8 miles around the lake to Harrison, Idaho. It was an adorable town with the BEST ice cream we have had in a long time...huge scoops! John, Scarlett and I took a moment to dance to the music of the country band that was playing and I played with Brittan on the play ground. The wind was blowing and the sky threatened rain, but we made it back to our cars after a great workout on the ride back.
With our bodies broken and a grand feeling of accomplishment, Sunday evening was spent laying on the couch enjoying time as a family. It was the PERFECT 4th of July weekend., and we are realizing that every holiday is so much more special now that we have Scarlett...photos to come.
Thank you Reese for making Scarlett's beautiful patriotic bow!
