As the girls get more involved with school and friends, their fitness now includes participation in organized sports in addition to our outings as a family.
It is a bittersweet transition, somewhat like when your first child goes to school and starts learning from someone else.
The kids' schedule now includes baseball games and mountain bike camp and the usual swim lessons. I know the sports schedule will get busier and busier as the girls get older, but I can't think of a better way for kids to spend time with their friends outside school.
We can always count on some family adventures on school vacation. In April, we were lucky to travel to Arizona, where the girls enjoyed climbing the red rocks in Sedona.
For the most part, we'll be right here in the Green Mountain State of Vermont, where all of the spring rain has made it especially green.
Though I'm saying farewell to the blog, my Fit Family book is still available and it makes a great gift for expecting parents.
Happy Summer.
