Family Day
by Ryan Loos on Nov.09, 2009, under General
It was such a beautiful weekend here in Buffalo, NY- 65 degrees and sunny! I had to work on Saturday, so I prepared to accomplish a number of home projects after church on Sunday. Well, the weekend is over and none of the projects are complete! Driving home from church, my wife and I decided that we needed to scrap the projects for the day and take a family bike ride! This is something we’ve really enjoyed doing over the last few years, and didn’t make time for this summer. It was a great day! We drove along the Niagara Falls Blvd and parked around service road 24. We had a beautiful and smooth trail to follow all the way to Dufferin Island, where we stopped to feed the ducks and grab a snack. After biking back to our vehicle we had a sunset picnic by the river. The kids had a blast and bedtime was a breeze! It was so much fun just being with my wife and kids. It made me realize how precious our time is together and helped me to remember my priorities in life. What can you give up or put on hold to get more time with your family?
