It is that time of year when Arizona is beautiful, truthfully why most people live here (it's definitely not because of our HOT summers). The temperature today 80 degrees, gorgeous. I have been thinking about how crazy life is and how it seems like our Saturdays come and go with not to many memories being made. It's time for a change. I really only get to be with them so little of time with school, sports, friends, callings and life. What could we do to spend fun time together? 
I came up with an idea for today, go on a bike ride outside our neighborhood. Called Papa and Gramers Morris and asked if I could use their truck? Why of course (thank you so much)! Talked to a few of my siblings and off we went for a fun fitness day riding bikes enjoying nature and time together. What a blast we had. 
Started our adventure with a picnic in the back of the truck. Kids didn't eat to much, I think they were excited.
Sienna wasn't quite sure where we were and what we were up to. She is such a cutie!
Logan and Larissa enjoyed this fun fitness day with us. 
Cole was ready to go. He loves to go on bike rides.
If we were to give out awards Ramie would win the best sport award. She learned to ride her bike without training wheels about a month ago. Here we take her to a place with other bikers, runners, walkers, hills and roads and she smiled and pedalled her little legs without complaining. She had a smile on her face the whole time. The one time she crashed she jumped up and got right back on. She even went down a big grass hill with no problems. I love this girl she is so fun to be around. 
Carly did a fabulous job too. Her confidence in riding her bike improved today. She made it up the hills and laughed and had a great time. 
Conner he is a great kid. He is such a good sport. He could of lapped us several times, but he was patient and had a fun time.
After we rode around several times we stopped for a potty break, drink and time for the little ones to walk around. Logan, Larissa and I had a little one on the back of our bikes. Poor little Sienna cried for awhile she wasn't quite sure if she wanted to go on a bike ride. Kylee smiled and was as quiet as could be, she is so easy going. Cole got to put his hands in the sprinkler as we rode by, look for Sharks and Nemo (in the lake) and carry our water bottle (he hates the camera). We had a great time!
Carly and Ramie best little cousins (next time we are going to have to bring the Steverson's and Larsen's)! I think Oma and Papa should get bikes (it is great exercise and fun)!!
Aunt Larissa was funny on her bike, she hadn't rode a bike for awhile let-a-lone one with a child seat on the back. She did awesome! (thank you Lance and Heather for letting us use your bikes). I am going to tell Uncle Johnny to get her a bike wagon for Christmas (sh, don't tell her).

On our break we sat and watch as people (athletes) came by preparing for the Ironman event(an intense triathlon) tomorrow. What an amazing event - wish it wasn't on a Sunday or I would go watch.
Kids have so much energy!
Yeah, I got him...my little man is getting so big!
Uncle Logan, I love that he will come hang with us and all our kiddos. We have so much fun with him. He is so patient with the kids and up for trying new activities. I admire his love for being healthy, this morning he ran 8 miles. He is dedicated and faithful to keeping his body healthy. I love you!

Wow! I'm jealous! Wish I was there. Although Ramie probably could have beat me up the hills!
YAY you for making memories. So many times I was overwhelmed with many children and I had no energy to do stuff like that.
Looks like everyone had a great time! Sorry we missed it!
We LOVE our bikes. Unfortunately, my oldest girls have grown so much they need new ones. Everyone else can just move up to the older kid's bike. It guess it's a good thing Christmas is close!
Can we say WAY FUN!! We had a blast..outside, bikes, cousins, aunt and uncle, something different...FUN!!! Thanks for the invite and great idea Aunt Lori. We always have fun hanging with you. Next time maybe we can recruit more people!!! thanks again for a great day.
Wow how fun and adventurous! You are brave to take all those kids...but it looked like they had fun:)
Again....when is that guy gonna get caught by a gal. Logan's gonna make a great DAD! Sounds like a wonderful time.
