The other night I told Coleman that it was time to learn to ride a "big boy" bike. I was also really mean and told him I would not take the training wheels off HIS
bike until he learned. So he picked up Mackenzie's old bike and took off. Luckily I was sitting there with the camera so I could take some pictures. When Mackenzie was young (only 1 1/2 years ago), Curt and Dorisann had to bribe her with money to learn it the "big girl" way! She got all excited to get money and she got on the bike and literally took off riding! It was like she knew what she was doning (granted she was 7 years old!)
I was not prepared for her to do that so I didn't even have the camera with me! Needless to say, I now have 2 big kids riding big kid bikes!
I also found this picture of my sweet older sister, Jeannie trying to teach me ride my big girl banana seat bike back in 1982. I was 5 years old. It must have been on a Saturday because we both have curlers in our hair and we always had curly hair for Sundays! Also something that is kind of fun, is that all of these pictures were taken on the same street! I would like to say that all 3 of us became "big kids" on the same street, but when Mackenzie learned, we were at our friends house out in Tooele....(Thanks again Curt & Dorisann!)
