My Dorothy Bike and Doodle Tag

This was such a fun surprise to wake up to on my birthday! I had been saying I wanted a bike, and I love this vintage style.
Blue made me walk down the stairs with my eyes closed, and once I made it safely to the bottom, I found this bike with a camo balloon tied to it, and cards in the basket. (oh, I love the basket!) I love it! (I just have to learn to “dismount” without crashing. I have been used to riding a friends’ bike, which has a male bike, so I have to swing my leg over the back when I get off. When I stop on this bike and try to swing my leg over the back, I tip over.)
Then a couple of Days later, I got this in the mail. It’s made from a figure drawing that Aiden draws. This is so special, I adore it.

Thank you Brody for some amazing birthday gifts!

Wow. Those presents are incredible! What a fun surprise to get the bike and I know you will cherish Aiden’s drawing charm. That is precious!

What a wonderful day for you! And then to have it extended yesterday when your necklace came! What an awesome idea! Leave it to Brody to find that kind of gift. I know having lots of family last week was another blessing. What a great PPT! I won’t forget your birthday! My day was kind of quiet. My excited, little girl lives too far away, but my husband makes up for it.

Where did Brody get that pendant made? I would love to get one of my granddaughter’s drawings.

Hey Kristin! It was so nice meeting you and your family a couple weeks ago. I found your blog through your comment on Danielle’s. By the way, I LOVE that bike, kid seat and all. I tell Adam all the time I want a bike like that with a big basket on the front to collect flowers in.
What a great idea of Brody’s too with that necklace. That is so cute.
