Jack's new/old bike...

Jack learned to ride his bike this summer without training wheels. Quickly, he was ready to move up to the next size and we decided to take one of Maxine's old bikes and give it a makeover. I'm so bummed I don't have a decent before picture. If you look at this old picture of Juliet, you can see the bike in the background.


Basically all you need to know is that it was very pink. Since it was a D.I. special, the tires were done after Maxine so Merril invested in some new tires and black grips. Jack picked the colors for his new bike, decided which part got painted which color and he and Merril took it all apart and painted it. He is supremely proud of his new bike!
