it was christmas, and James was very thoughtful. he had bought me the most wonderful present i've ever recieved. dancing lessons! but not just for me. nope. jamie went the extra mile, and signed himself up for learning how to dance right along with me. it's been loads of fun. we've dominated the swing dancing techniques, learned the cha cha, and about 2 weeks ago, we learned how to waltz. i've loved learning how to dance with him. ....but mom says that i need to be a good girlfriend and go mountain biking with him. it's something he's always wanted me to do with him. and if he goes dancing with me, i should go biking with him. right? i agreed. we went biking. just me, jamie, matthew, and a little thing most people refer to as a near death experience. little to my knowledge, when jamie said: "mountain biking", he actually meant: "fly down a cliff and try to survive plowing through gigantic logs and small woodland creatures, and then flip over your handlebars into a marsh wilst trying to make a ridiculously sharp right turn." huh. not that it wasn't extremely fun, but getting huge bruises, attacked by bugs and producing enough sweat to make a lake, maybe i'll pass on the next biking adventure. i'll let 'mountain biking' be a bonding experience between jamie, nature, and other invincible boys who actually own helmets.
we'll have to find some other quality time activity that doesn't involve falling. he likes coffee. and books. and camping. that seemes safe. maybe we should just stick with that.

You and Jamie should come biking with Jennifer and I on an easy trail sometime - like the LRT trail from Shakopee to Hopkins, or Victoria to Hopkins.
Ooo! an easy trail? that would work. and, of course, it would have to end in ice cream. =] you should let us know when you have a free day or something, so we can all go!
ummmmm, hi guys. this is Jenn.
We have kids. does that mean we pull them in the Burly, or do we leave them with some unsuspecting I mean, lucky grandparents? :) ps. kudos, Christine on going with Jaimers. It's always good to try and do something they want to do, even if it's not you first choice.
