Another adventurous Saturday

Craig decided he wanted to buy a bike so we can do some biking. He thought it'd be a good idea to look at Yard Sales and if we couldn't find one, we were gonna go to Wal-Mart cuz he found the one he wanted there. We stopped at a Yard Sale that The Baptist Church was doing. We arrived 2 hours before they were done. In doing so, the lady in charge came up to us saying anything we can fit in the brown bag (in the pic to the left) was $1. I found a bunch of books, a teddy bear backpack, and the ball popper toy. On our way to leave we found the baby bath and the lady told us .25! We borrowed Dathan & Kel's with Jaycee so we needed one for the next baby we have. Then to make it better we saw the DVD/Book rack and she told us $1. We got to the front and she told us...$2.25! For all this?!! We were stunned. It was a donation Yard Sale so we just wrote out a check for $10. I must say we got a good deal! AND Jaycee loves her new books and toy!






Well we didn't find the bikes at a Yard Sale. We headed out to Skowhegan to Wal-Mart and to check out the New Balance Factory. At Wal-Mart we found both these bikes that were clearanced. The red one is Craig's. This is the one he found online and wanted but it was $188 and he didn't want to spend that. We found it on clearance for $122. He was stoked! Then as we were going to leave I saw the yellow one marked down to $52! He couldn't pass it up and convinced me to get it since my old bike needed at least $25 in work. So we ended up leaving wal-mart 2 bikes richer! We got home and right away we had to go on a ride. There are bike/ATV trails everywhere! We rode up to the grocery store to buy Lysol Wipes to clean the books & toys and then rode a long way home. All together I'd say about 4-5 miles. After not riding a bike forever I couldn't believe it was kinda tiring. I'm excited to start riding a lot more! Craig is really excited too because I found out he has a wicked past of riding bikes. I never knew that. In fact, he was so excited that we rode them to our friend's house for a BBQ and he rides his bike to work. We're excited for our new adventure of Mountain Bike Riding. We haven't bought a trailer/carrier for Jaycee yet. I put in a bid at Ebay hoping to get it cheaper than what Wal-Mart wants for one. As of now, Jaycee gets strapped on Craig's back and she loves it! We love Maine and the fun things to do here!
