Way to go Alivia....

So Alivia learned how to ride her bike yesterday. It took about 3-4 times and she was doing pretty good.

She only had one major crash, but no broken anything I am glad to say.

And in the video don't mind the whining Cooper in the background:)

She was so excited, talked about it all night long. Unfortunately she is not feeling well today, and it is a rainy, gloomy day. So maybe bike riding tomorrow.

This week is a big week for Ben, today he had a 10 minute presentation in front of all the STL's (store managers). It didn't go as well as he had planned all the video he put in it to use as an example wouldn't work through the projector. (major bummer) It was a great presentation he used clips from the movie Remember the Titans and they didn't work:( So then he got nervous and sped up he said, so he went through it faster than he had planned. And Friday he has a interview prep session with all the STL's again. Basically he sits in a room and gets interviewed all day long. Ben's favorite thing to do, talk to people and better yet.... about himself:)

  3. When I learned to ride my bike I crashed into the mailbox. My family still talks about it :) Oh the memories! Alivia is so cute! I love all your Allison Krauss music on your blog. I know how you have always loved her :) We still need to plan to get together...
