family fun...

i am loving the fact right now that our family can go on bike rides together.  it is such a great activity that we can all do together.  all six of us enjoying the fresh air, getting some nice exercise and just being together having fun.

we are so fortunate to live in such a beautiful area with some great restaurants that we can bike to.  all we have to do is ride down central (the most wonderful street in phoenix!) to grab a bite to eat.  we rode down to Sam's Gyros on saturday evening for a scrumptious dinner.  it's a little dive (no frills and i mean none) with the best gyros and fries.

we had a great dinner and a wonderful bike ride home in this beautiful weather.  we are hoping sam's gyros will be able to survive this economy and want to help spread the word about their great food.  stop by and get yourself a gyro, you won't be disappointed.

***there are also 'frilly' restaurants on central and man are there a lot of them now...i'll have to post on them sometime when just chris and i go.
***bomberos is one of them - really cool wine bar with amazing scenery inside and out and great food (and of course wine).  john and i bike up there just about every tuesday for a wonderful storytime they have @ 9:30 - its been outside all year but they will move it inside once it gets too hot.  check it out, the woman who does it is awesome and you can get some scrumptious illy coffee to sip and meet a friend to catch up with.
