Ride, ride ride that pony

We went to farm country with some friends this week.  Luke loves animals and has absolutely no trepidation.  He would just take a piece of corn and put it right up to their mouths.  Except of course for the geese which he though were the worst animal ever.  They were "honking" he told them "no no" the weren't impressed and just kept right along with their business, so he skedaddled.  A highlight for him was to ride a pony. 

Holiday Weekend

 I have been wanting to go to this hot air balloon launch for several years now.  This year we finally made it.  I was really neat and they weren't even able to launch because of bad weather at 500 feet.  So next year should be super fun. 

 

Luke was mesmerized by the fire, that kept the balloons inflated he just kept chanting fire, fire.  So we thought what a perfect time to introduce him to the joys of a campfire.  Later that evening we headed up the canyon for a hot dog roast...a good time was had by all.

It's what fun is...

This weekend we went to an amusement park.  We had a blast, just taking it easy and watching Luke ride the kiddie rides.  Plus there were several rides we all got to go on together.  Hands down the hit of the day was the splash pad fountain.  Luke could have spent all day in there.  When other little kids were timidly putting their fingers in the streams of water, Luke would run full force and tackle it.  He is a water bug through and through.  It was so fun to just watch him having the time of his life, those are the best times. 

Father's Day Pics

Seems like rarely in life do things turn out quite like you expect them.  But Bryan is every bit the father I hoped he would be.  I won't go into details, really just wanted to show the cute pictures.  But I am blessed beyond measure to have these two in my life.

Happy Birthday to the cutest two year old in the world!  Wow time flies!  Luke is just the joy of our lives.  He brings adventure and fun and keeps us on our toes.  He is so smart and friendly, jovial, charming, sweet, and crazy.   I love him to pieces.

Some of his current favorites are:


Running and jumping everywhere that he goes
Water, water, and more water
Mungous (the word humongous...mongous hugs, mongous kisses, mongous suckers, mongous blankets)
Grandmas ( he even finds grandma in the store that aren't his own - he just thinks if you are an older woman you are going to give him everything he ever wanted and never tell him no)
Bugs(we go out and put some in a cup almost everyday)
Bandaids, neosporin, and kisses that heal all
Nemo
Kicking the ball to the moon with Daddy

Some things he could live without:

Nursery
Bedtime
