Saturday, October 24 –

Bella, Axel and Mia came to the Ranch today. The kids always have a lot of fun. This visit, I had something new for them to try. I picked up a couple of little “Velo” bikes made for toddlers. They don’t have pedals, but they do teach kids to balance on a bike.

We found the nearest place on the road that had a little hill and they started trying to figure out how to glide down the hill on the bikes. Axel thought it was more fun to try and crash his bike in ever new and creative ways. I started calling him Evel Knievel. They wanted to know who that was so I told them all about the famous daredevil from years past. Not to be outdone, Bella informed us that she also had a new moniker, “Abel Kenobi”!
