Bikes and a Bucking Hog

Now that the weather has finally cooled down some, David took Sammy and Charlie on a bike outing today so the girls could ride around and get some fresh air. Plus, Mommy needed a break and wanted the house to herself for a few hours!

Hard to believe but true—this was the first time the girls had been on their bikes in months. They went the entire summer without riding around because of the heat and humidity. Texas summers suck!


OK, first stop—Leon Springs Elementary, where Sammy attends kindergarten. Charlie looked quite fierce as she pedaled around on her tricycle.



Next stop—Mi Casa Tamales, an awesome restaurant in Boerne that serves yummy tamales (like you couldn't tell from the restaurant's name what the cuisine was). The girls rode a coin-operated bucking hog. As the video reveals, Sam had quite a lot of fun at first until her rear end starting hurting because she was sitting on the hog's caboose.

And finally, the girls were in the mood for a spa treatment but settled for a bike ride in front of an empty salon and spa up the road from our neighborhood.
