We decided to get a babysitter for the kids and ride our bikes up to Three Rivers, MI to celebrate our 11th wedding anniversary. (50 mile round-trip bike ride - fun!). We rode past the downtown area and a Bed and Breakfast that we stayed at many years ago on our way from Chicago to Ann Arbor for a Michigan Football game. We ate at a place called Frankie's. It was a restaurant recently remodeled (and menu updated) by the Food Network. (the show will air on the Food Network on September 5 @9EST). The food was resonably priced and tasted pretty good. Little did we know that the excitement of our evening would be trying to "beat" the approaching storm home to Sturgis :)
We had cake with the kids and showed them our wedding and honeymoon album.
oh.... and a "small" biking accident too :) Ross was pretending to be a BMX biker (who was actually riding a road bike!) and jump over some railroad tracks.... he made it over the first set... but ... not the 2nd set... i slowed down in reaction to Ross falling and didn't unclip my left foot. As i was talking to Ross, my tire got caught in the railroad track and I lost my balance..... when your shoe is still clipped to the bike and you loose your balance.... YOU WILL FALL - ugh! so here we are showing our wounds :)
the sky started to clear.... AFTER we got home. (We did have to stop on the way home because i was a little nervous about the lightening strikes.... we stopped at a place that was having a garage sale set up in tents.... no one was around for the evening so we took cover for a few minutes!) An Anniversary to remember for sure!
