A cool husband, once again!

So I come home the other day and what did I find? Something I have been craving for the past couple months..... a clothes line! I know, it's silly but true. The weather has been soooo warm out and every time I do laundry I say, "I wish we had a clothes line." What's the point of wasting energy by using a dryer when the sun is just baking our back porch? Plus the clothes get that fresh air smell that can't be beat. Do I sound like a commercial yet?

Yes, I know. It's the little things in life that make me feel special. But isn't Jake the coolest? I say something and zim-zam-slappity-jam it's done! A simple yet much loved rope strung across our back porch!

THEN, I come home the next day and what am I to find? Jake is over the top! We had borrowed some old bikes from our friends Shane and Lauren for the summer. They aren't anything too flashy (or comfortable to sit on) but Jake fixed them up enough to be road worthy. We've enjoyed a couple of good cruises together. But apparently, Jake didn't think it was good enough for his lady and so I found this waiting for me in our living room yesterday!!!!

I've been on an orange kick lately. I LOVE this bike!

That is a CUTE bike. Mine is not nearly as flashy but I have named her Debbie. Did you name yours? I have a thing about naming my vehicles, my car is Emmett. Mom says to say, "They're so cute. When are they coming again?" Did Jake end up with a bike too? I know he was looking.
