Of course, I'm way behind again, but here it is anyway...
On Memorial Day, we (Jared) wanted to take the boys fishing in Midway. Due to school and other things, we didn't get to stay over, but just drove up early in the morning. Chandler and Preston got new fishing poles for their 'end-of-the-school-year' presents this year and were anxious to try them out.
Chandler fishing
Preston fishing. He actually had a lot more fun playing with the worms that sitting still holding his pole. I know, you're shocked about that, aren't you?
Jared demonstrating his boy scout, knot-tying skills. Judging by the number of 'bobbers' that ended up in the pond, he may need to practice more. :)
After fishing, we went home, let Ashton have a nap, and then went on a bike ride to Bridal Veil Falls with my family. This is a pretty long ride for little ones; especially since we had to start from our house and not from my parents' house where everyone else started.
Preston and Ashton enjoyed a nice nap in the bike trailer on the way.
My Dad at the 'rest stop' we had to take on the way up.
The whole family! We made it! I was so proud of Chandler for making it the whole way. (15 miles round trip!) His bike only has one gear and he must have looked pretty funny on the way down trying to keep up with his pedals. He had the cadence of Lance Armstrong and then some.
After the ride, we had a barbeque at my parents' house.

The bike ride sounded great! You guys should get one of those "tag-a-longs." We have one and loved and used it since Mara was about 5 years old. I guess it was a necessity because we needed the trailer for Mark and Jeff. She loved feeling like she was on a big bike though. :)
