Its pretty rare to have a warm day in January around here… so when one came we decided to take the opportunity to go for a walk.

One of Bridget’s favorite summer activities was to take a walk to the local 7-11 and get slurpees. So when I suggested a walk she immediately requested that we also go get a slurpee. Why not? Right?

So we headed out on our little trek to 7-11… Spencer in the stroller and Bridget on her tricycle.

En route we decided to stop and visit one of Bridget’s little friends. Bridget invited her to come along for slurpees. Some of the sidewalks on our path were not very well shoveled, so we ditched the trike at her friends house and made the journey on foot.

I was a little bit worried because its a pretty decent walk for a three year old, and it had been several months since we’ve walked it… and even then, SHE had the stroller at her beckoning call. This time it was Spencer’s ride. Whether it was the company of a friend or the promise of a treat at the end of the journey, I don’t know, but we made it. We made it in one piece… happy and even decently warm. No bumps or bruises or scrapes of any kind. And no slipping on the ice. No incidents. Thank goodness.
Ah, sweet victory!

And we all had a great time too! Can’t wait for another warm day!!
