It’s a Nice Day for a Bike Ride

Today was one of the nicest days we’ve had in a while. It started out on a sad note. An older lady in our church passed away Saturday night and her funeral was today. I played and led the congregational music. Kerri was asked to cater the event.

This afternoon, Kerri and I went for a kid-free bike ride. We explored additional ways for me to get to the church from the house. I’m trying to do anything I can to save money on gas. We rode about 15 miles today. Beautiful weather and Waukee, Clive and West Des Moines have some GREAT trails. Very beautiful ride.

After dinner, we rode with the kids to the ice cream shop in downtown Waukee. The kids have come to love this ride, especially the treat! They did very good. Even Jaden did well on the 3 mile roundtrip ride. Nice quiet evening after that.

Storms a-coming

Today was an average.  Kids had field day at school.  I ran video cables at church in preparation for the LCD’s to be hung next week.  This evening Kerri went to dinner with the Preschool workers and I played piano at a funeral visitation.  

Tough storms are making their way through the state right now.  I see lightening as I type.

13 Years and Counting…

Today Kerri and I celebrated our 13th wedding anniversary.  We enjoyed a nice steak dinner and then some grocery shopping at Costco.  WOW..Who would have thought 13 would be so exciting.

Cool weather and rain here today.  Not quite used to 50 degree weather in May.  I assume it will warm up soon!

Kerri is busy this week with multiple catering events and a cake due this weekend.  She hasn’t missed a beat in the catering are since we moved.  I think she is as busy as she wants to be.

Ain’t Yo Momma??

While at the grocery store today, Jaden requested the animal pancakes for breakfast and told Kerri the reason he hadn’t been eating them a lot was because she wasn’t buying the right syrup.  So, standing in front of the syrups, Kerri asked him, “So which syrup do you want?”  Jaden pulled out this one and said, “She momma.   I’ve gotta have Ain’t Yo-Momma’s because it is the best!”  Thought you’d enjoy!auntjemima.jpg
