Bike Rodeo



Through Lexi's Cubbie class, they had a "Bike Rodeo". Each child was in charge of decorating their own bike (with the help of their parents), and they got to ride it around in the parking lot and stopped at different stations to play games. We were all excited. Lexi won last year for "best decorated bike", so we were all excited. After weeks of planning, we came up with the idea of "Super Jesus"....(well, with the help of Ashley M.). So I made a cape for her with 1 Timothy 1:15 on the back.... "Jesus came into the world to save the sinners...." Herman, Clarence, Lexi, and I stayed up SUPER late, decorating and making the bike look like it belonged to a super hero!! That day, we spent most of it, looking for things for Lexi to wear,.... we found some awesome socks that Kelley had crocheted, tights (every super hero needs them!!!), and my old drill team silver sequinced wrist and ankle things! SUPER CUTE!!! Well, Lexi had fun,.... however she did not win the contest. The ironic thing is, the kid that did win, had decorated his bike very closely to how Lexi's was decorated last year!! Hmmmm..... Lesson learned to Lexi: "You can't win 'em all!!!"..... Good to know!!
