Family Bikes!!




So We woke up Saturday morning and decided to go hit some garage sales. We were on a mission for bikes. :) Every time Caden sees a bike he can't help himself he has to get on it. So we decided it was time for him to trade in his tricycle...and another piece to the big boy puzzle is put into place. Ooohhh it happens so fast!
Well anyway I am happy to report we were successful!!
Chris' Bike = $35
My Bike = $15
Caden's Bike = a whopping $1.00
Family Bike Rides Priceless :)
As a side note can you believe we got Caden's bike for $1. It was a little girls bike so Chris sanded it down, and spray painted it orange and black, put on new grips, and added on my training wheels from when I was a little girl:) and presto new bike!!
Just this morning Caden and I enjoyed a morning bike ride together to the park. I look forward many more sweet times...
Enjoy the pics...I will post a video soon :)

Family




One of my favorite things is family time. It doesn't matter when or where or if it is just us three or everyone from both sides, there is just a warmth that fills you when you are with your family. This week in Florida I had a lot of time to reflect on what a precious blessing God has given us in Family. A family is made up of people so it is not perfect by any means, but our situations, strengths, and weaknesses are what bring us so close together...

Caden is getting to a really fun age. He also has his fair share of opinions, and whenever it was his turn to choose what we did, he chose putt-putt :) We played twice last week! He also enjoyed his fair share of the pool and the beach! Being out in Gods beautiful creation with my family was the best!

Please stay tuned. there will be more soon.
