Bikes

We upgraded the girls' bikes this past weekend.  Before we had one 12 inch bike for them to share (primarily because Audrey had zero interest in biking).  It was clearly too small for Brooke and we thought Audrey would perhaps enjoy biking more if she picked out her bike.  We let them pick their new bikes and helmets from Academy (though as a side note, buy your 16 inch bikes at Wal-Mart because they will assemble them for you and you have to do it yourself from Academy.  Boo)

As I said in the last post, once we got them all assembled we realized that Brooke's back tire had a huge hole in it.  After buying a new tube and some impressive tire changing from D (thanks to all those years of biking the MS150) we were all set to bike around the neighborhood....or at least our street.

Here are some cute pics of them:

First time they were able to ride together

And they rode off into the sunset together.


And here is a video (this is for you Kate and Renee as you saw Audrey trying to ride a bike right before we moved) showing their biking prowess:

Way to go, girls! The horn was a nice touch.
