Mattern Family: Even Us Parents Like To Play!

Sunday, April 24, 2011

As parents, we too have our hobbies, those things that make us smile.

Bikes are the playground for my husband, the track, his swing set.

This past weekend was track weekend. We had such a blast watching the crazy men as they sped through the corners with knees on the pavement.

We love it. They love it.

I love seeing my man so happy, his face shines when racing these two wheeled machines!

(PS: My man is the one with the pretty green bike.)

Wow! So impressive! He must practice a lot to be able to do that! I've seen that in the movies, never in person.

That is precisely what makes my husband put up with worrying about me, tolerate all the time I'm off riding somewhere, & make room in our budget for moto-expenses. There's nothing quite as wonderful as seeing bliss on the face of the one you love. =)
