Bike rides are fun

Last Saturday I took a bike ride with my SIL Jen & BIL Ryan. We have this little route that goes to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple along U111 and then onto our house. 
I went 21 miles on Saturday and did it in 1:32min. Pretty impressive. 
There were lots of hills, plenty of time I was thinking what the H am I doing?
There are other moments, when I think this is nice to have ME time! Time to think about the weeks goals, life challenges and how I can be better mom, wife and all around gal. Also enjoying the beautiful surroundings. The best part of the ride is getting up to the Temple. Riding around it and just being outside of it feeling the peace and joy that it brings to me. I regret we haven't been as much as I would like these last few months. Knowing that the Temple is there and that I will try harder to get there. 
After having the peaceful fun ride, it's hard to come back to the reality of life. (insert kids screaming) Bike rides are fun!
