Ogden City River Walk

As a teenager we used to tube down the Weber River.  Probably wasn't the safest thing to do.  I don't know how we even floated down it, as it's not very deep.  Now, it seems like the beavers have built all sorts of dams. 

There were so many lovely trees and gnats.  Made me miss playing soccer...running through the grass, sweaty, right through a swarm of gnats, trying to eat your eyeballs out.  Ah.  The good old days.

Once we get our bike trailer going, we'll be riding down this area!

 Also, there are a ton of cherry trees along the trail.  You better believe I'll be back to pick some. 

As usual, the husband ditched me.

Dark helmet

I know, I know, it looks like she's holding on for dear life.  She really was having fun.

 

I don't really like this show...but she totally reminded me of Dark Helmet.  She's so little...with that giant helmet.  I mean, it was hilarious. Plus, she makes these weird throat noises all the time.  She may have to be Dark Helmet for Halloween or something.

 I never understood why kids named their favorite stuffed animals "dog," or "monkey."  I always felt they were very uncreative children, how wrong I was.  It's the parents.  Now, I understand.

Let's not forget him.

Yes, she really is this little, with this slightly large head. 

Even though the helmet left her slightly off balance, it actually made me feel better when she tripped.  Head protected right?

We actually didn't get to try out the trailer with a bike...we were missing one piece, the one vital piece that connects the trailer to the bike.  A slightly important piece.  Luckily, Amazon saved the day.  I plan on making this a regular thing this summer.

Mothers

Thankful for these ladies.
