It Was a Pink Christmas

My boys got me the PINKEST BIKE in the WHOLE WORLD for Christmas! It's awesome. It's called Roxie. It's a baby-girl pink Schwinn cruiser with whitewall tires. Ian and Lucas added a pink basket, a pink horn, and pinkish handlebar streamers, just to make it extra girly. To top it off, they got me a matching pink helmet to go with it.

Then Ian put Asher's baby seat on the back. It's not pink, which is probably good. I wouldn't want Asher to be embarassed about having to ride in a pink seat on a pink bike.


I'm looking forward to TONS of Good Family Fun on Bikes in the coming years. I'm anticipating lots of time on the American River Bike Trail. Picnics on the trail this spring, anyone?

    So cute. When you told me you got the pinkest bike ever I was all smart-mouthed and asked if it had streamers, and you said YES! *And* a pink basket. You were totally right. 😀

    I love Asher’s little serious look: “Wow. My mom sure is a girl.” =)

    It may be more like, “Oh shit. Is she qualified to drive this thing?” It was his first time sitting in that seat and riding on a bike. He coped pretty well, all things considered.
