Our oldest turned 11 on Monday. We have extended his birthday celebration out over a few day so I'm also going to extend out this blogging entries. I took a ton of photos & don't want to overwhelm the entries. After all, I'm still in the dark ages when it comes to the world wide web...I have ::gasp:: dial-up!
On the way home from our friends place on Saturday we stopped & let him pick out a brand new bike. I had blogged earlier in the spring about how he was finally able to overcome his fears & learn to ride a bike. The one he was riding we had bought him when he was about five or six. Needless to say he's done a bit of growing since then & the bike didn't really fit well.
B wanted one with gears and real brakes. :-) Here is what he ended up with & he loves it!
Great new bike! What fun! Now you and B can get some rides in together.
ReplyDeleteCool bike!
ReplyDeleteOh, doesn't it sometimes seem like WE are really the ones who get the gift on our dc's bdays?!
ReplyDeleteI remember the bike problems you mentioned awhile ago. How exciting that he's now riding a new one! And.. I'm so glad you take time to post pictures even with dialup! I know that must take FOREVER. It wasn't that long ago that we switched from dial up.
