Early Birthday Present

Logan & I went to town the other day to run a few errands.  Taylor stayed home with James.  In the middle of our errands, I get a text message from James...

with this photo.  Somebody got an early birthday present! 

Taylor had really outgrown her old bike.  She needed a bigger one.  Her birthday isn't until October.  So we decided to give her the bike early, so she could enjoy it during the summer.

She LOVES it!  It has hand brakes, a front shock and a kick stand!!!  Wow!  Such a big girl bike.

After riding it up and down our street a few times, she was ready for some dirt! 

James & Logan have gone on mountain bike rides together, but Taylor could never go because she didn't have the right kind of bike.  Well, now she does and she can't wait for her first real mountain bike ride with her dad.

She's doing great adjusting to her new, bigger bike.  Hopefully she'll get more dirt under her tires today.  She's our fearless girl and is always ready for an adventure.  

She says her favorite part about the new bike is, "that I can do more off-roading with it."  

Happy Early Birthday, Taylor Girl!
