Collecting Sea Shells - Simon Says Stamp DT Card

Good morning peeps,

I nearly did myself a very serious mischief yesterday!

We bought my beautiful nephew a BMX bike that he's been longing for as his broke ages ago, he's brilliant at all the jumps & stunts on them so he needed a really good one. I did break out in a sweat while punching in my debit card pin thinking OMG that's about 60 Magnolia stamps worth of bike lol. It was a complete surprise for him so when we got to his house Gareth & I parked round the corner while hubby rode his motorbike up to Rob's & got Rob to come outside by pretending he needed some water for his motorbike. Me being me decided it would be a good idea to ride the BMX up to Rob. OMG girls DON'T ever try it unless you are a contortionist! That seat is unbelievably painful, your knees end up shoulder height & you have to have your legs wide open to be able to pedal because the seat is so low. I wobbled up to Rob all hunched up riding with my legs splayed like frogs legs & he still didn't realise it was for him, he looked at me a bit startled  and said "why have you rode your bike Auntie Moo?" I struggled to ride it 9 metres let alone the 9 miles to his house lol. He was so thrilled with it he was near to tears aww, he even made the tender nether regions worth it but I will never, ever attempt that again lol.
