Braedi turns 11

WOW!  Braedi is growing up so fast.  Braedi got to choose a family activity  this year.  Her birthday present from us was a new bike, so she decided to do a family bike ride with ice cream afterward.  Amazingly we fit all the bikes in the back of the van.  We headed to a nearby park with a bike path and spent an hour or two riding around.  It was so  much fun.  I wish we had a bike path by our house so that we don't have to load up the bikes. 

Braedi requested cinnamon rolls for her birthday breakfast.  We decided to  try a new recipe that was supposed to only take 90 minutes.  It took a bit longer and they didn't turn out very well--they were hard and didn't rise.  I've decided that if we ever want cinnamon rolls again, we have to let someone else make them for us.  We put a candle in Braedi's and sang Happy Birthday during breakfast.
