Hard Earned Money

After several months of chores and special cleaning assignments, Kenda and Makiah finally saved up enough money for their much-anticipated bikes. Right after we got to Idaho Falls, we headed to Walmart to pick the perfect bike. After some deliberation, Kenda chose a Misty bike that was perfect in size and Makiah ended up with a Barbie bike that even has an attachable plastic bike for her Barbie doll to ride along on. Kiah is also sporting a Dora helmet. It is amazing how quickly commercialization fits back into life. All of a sudden we are surrounded by Hannah Montana, Dora, Barbie, Elmo etc. That is one thing that Louis and I will miss about the island!
