This being off of work stuff is great. Saturday morning we drove up north to Rutledge so visit Tom's dad. Dylan went fishing for the first time. He caught two croppies with his spidey fishing rod. He had a really good time, and he wasn't a bad fisherman for his first time out. We got to ride around the property on his dad's golf cart, and we brought home some homemade maple syrup. All in all a good visit.
Tom's dad also gave us some mountain bikes that he and his wife no longer use. The intention was that today we would go on a family bike ride, but it did not work out as planned. Dylan refuses to learn to ride his bike. The kid has no balance. He just allows himself to flop right over. Instead, we went for a picnic at Minnehaha Falls. When we got back, Tom and I went for a bike ride around Lake Nokomis. Going with Tom was good motiviation to get my lazy ass active. We decided we need to ride together at least a few times a week. Hopefully Dylan will eventually go with us.
I gave Ren a couple of ideas for tattoos I want last night, and she's going to draw them for me. Eventually, she will also be doing them for me. She just got her gun and everything, and still needs to practice a bit. I'm excited, because she is a good artisit. Oh, and the free tattoos part is a perk too. She's actually moving to Chicago in a month, but hopefully they won't be there for too long.
2 more days before I have to go back to work. There's so much more I want to do!
