Kaylee and Regan had our last Friday with the kids off school. So Jon took the day off and we had one last day of fun as a family of seven.

Jon had been wanting to bike the kids over to the foot bridge for the last year. We thought it would make for a fun last adventure. Jon had three kids on his bike and I had two. I was SO excited about this bike ride. We used to pop Kaylee and Regan on our bike and zip around often before our placement. It was a bit trickier to load five onto two bike. We had to wait until Monkey girl was big enough, and buy a trailer.

The kiddos thought that the foot bridge was pretty awesome. We stayed and watched cars drive under us for quite some time. Mostly because I felt like I was dying and needed to recover. I am SO SO SO out of shape! I haven’t really done any cardio in the last year…..

My whole body was shaking by the time we got to the bridge. I’m planing on getting back to being fit. I want to be able to bike my kiddos places and not need hours to recover after.

Halfway home I had to just get down and walk. My legs were shaking so bad I couldn’t peddle anymore. The girls hopped off the bikes to walk and Jon got this sweet picture of them. Apparently being walked while sitting on a bike is just not as fun.

The boys stayed in the trailer the whole ride home. The three big kids did lots of seat swapping between bikes and places to ride. I did like getting to chat with each of them when they were on my bike. That was nice.“Let’s go on a bike ride to the foot bridge. It will be fun.” Lies! Mostly because we didn’t realize just how out of shape I am. Things to work on.

Also we are going to miss these kiddos so freaking much! Saying goodbye was really hard. 🙁
