the weekend

taking a break from the bike ride while jp takes some pictures

This has been the greatest weekend. The temperatures have finally been warm enough for me to want to spend every minute outside. Yesterday, johnpaul and I spent a few hours on a really nice bike ride, exploring the greenbelt in Boise. I will admit that really I was exploring, johnpaul knew exactly where he was because he runs on the greenbelt almost nightly. It was really awesome. Later in the day we walked to the CO-OP to have a little look around. It is always fun to check it out.

this is Wendy and I taking a walk during our latest Portland visit

I started a blog for johnpaul and his friend wendy to have a weekly photo contest. They take a picture each week, post it to their blog and then people can vote on which they like best each week. Hopefully, they will keep taking and posting pictures. You should check it out. It's called Two Photos. Anyway. Johnpaul took a few amazing photos for the blog while we were out riding and walking yesterday. It was fun. After he decides which one he is going to post on his blog, I will post a couple of our nice day here.

This morning I was happy to be outside working in the yard. There is this squirrel who lives somewhere near my house and he has decided that he is my new best friend. He likes to hang out...even coming up close and to visit with me! He eats out of the bird feeder and watches what is going on. It is kind of bizarre, but I do like having him around. I will post a picture as soon as I get one off of johnpaul's camera. I am thinking about giving him a name. Any good ideas?

a new bike

I have to be the luckiest girl ever! Johnpaul bought me this new bike from REI this week. We went on a nice bike ride after planting our new fruit trees and blueberry plants (more on this later) the other night. It really feels like spring is here. I can really cruise on this bike. It is so much more awesome than my old bike and it has a really cute little bell on it.

I know I've only been on two rides, but I am loving it! xoxo Stephanie
