Spring Event at School ...and bike riding (at last!)

Mom and Dad went to see Ian at his spring school fund raiser last week. It was a beautiful evening for the outdoor event, with games and a small song and dance performance given by all the children. Ian played lots of games and hung out with various school friends. It was all a lot of fun.

Ian has also been learning to ride his bike and finally went 'solo' this past weekend. No longer does Dad need to run along behind holding the 'handle' to keep him upright! Dad is now planning a mountain biking expedition (ok, not quite just yet!).
