Thorn in my side...

                    ...well just the tire but that is bad enough!

Nicole was sweet to send me a surprise to help brighten my day, a BOB Revolution.  I was so excited to take it out on a walk.  I got the boys ready on their bikes, made a bottle for Strider, strapped him in, and headed out for our 3 mile walk.  We got about 1/2 mile in when the stroller started pulling to one side.  I looked down to see a completely flat tire.  As I inspected the tire I found a big 'ol thorn stuck in the tire.  Grrr, it made me so mad.  This is the second stroller that has fallen victim to the nasty thorns in our neighborhood.  So, I called my very helpful neighbor, Dad, and he came and picked us up.  I guess our walk will have to wait until tomorrow. 

By the way, I love the stroller, Nikki!  Thank you so much, it did brighten my day.
