New Bike

Adam mentioned that he gets teased for having a pink and purple bike, so Grandpa Angus promptly upgraded him to this one. It's black with cool red stripes, 21 gears and oh so awesome! Adam is loving it.

Cousins in town

 We are full swing in the middle of lots of family and cousins coming to town. Adam is loving having Alex and Gabby here from Indiana. They are three peas in a pod, and we've had no fighting at all!

These pics are from the bike ride to Bridal Veil Falls. We've also been swimming, playing games in the basement, and riding bikes around the circle by Grandma's house.

Another Lost Tooth

Adam worked on this one for hours, and could nearly twist it all the way around. In the end I gave it a long, hard pull and he was free!

Rodeo

Here are the boys, ready for the annual Lehi Roundup Rodeo!

We had great seats, and the boys loved looking over to the side to see all the horses and bulls getting ready.

I tried my hardest for two hours to get Jacob to have a nap, but instead he just fell asleep at about 9:30pm, crowds screaming and loud speakers blaring. It was sad because he slept through the motorcycle jumpers. But he did get to see and hear the train go by right next to the stadium.

It was one of the better rodeos we've attended--the cowboys who rope the head and the feet nearly all had success, and we saw two injuries. You know that when people get hurt, it was exciting and the animals were bucking well!

New Helmet

Jacob is really good at riding his little two-wheeler bike with training wheels. So we decided it's time for a helmet. 

 His face looks goofy in this picture, but I posted it so you can see the sparkly blue eyes. They look like bright blue marbles.

He's a happy boy to be so big, and to have a new helmet!

Happy Boy

Here's a great picture of Jacob--his hair has gotten long, and it even looks styled because I spray sunscreen in it! He was downstairs playing with his trucks, happy as a lark.

Discovered Photos

I pulled out our fancy camera to take some gardening pictures, and found these:

Could the eyes be bluer? Could the face be any rounder? He looks the same, but he's so different now!
