Josh rebuilds his bike

Posted in Good Moments on February 14th, 2010

Josh decided that he wanted to redo his bike after Noah got a new bike for Christmas. Josh got a Nintendo DS instead . . .

So we took the whole bike apart – sanded it down – primered it with bright white primer then . . .

First decision was a color:

It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything . I am learning again. It’s fun! We have a new dog – Say hello to Casey: And  . . . a pitcher in the family: And he hits too . . .

Josh’s team is in first place as of last Saturday. They finally beat their arch-nemesis “The Dogders” – beat them 9-5 . Josh walked, hit a single, stole 2nd, then 3rd and scored a run. He’s having a pretty good year.

Here’s Noah with Casey.

And here’s Chris and Casey. Casey and Chris have a special bond. Chris rescued her from the pound and Casey is grateful.

And Mom keeps showing her strength . . .

This was a tough winter for Mom. She traditionally hibernates in the winter and it affects her well-being. It seems to get harder every year. But again she fought her way through it – a little calmer . . .
