Party at the Ranch

Went to the Ranch for Uncle David's 60th birthday party and Andrew's 18th birthday party. Byron told Aunt Patti that he wanted to ride Opie (the horse in the picture). Opie was so sweet with the boys. We had a lot of fun. Except when Rich and Byron walked right past a rattlesnake. It was beheaded and all the boys were fasinated with the rattle. It was a 6 rattle rattlesnake. Had a great time visting with our new friends Dani & Mckay and their son Caleb. They are living with my mother in law for the summer.

Summer Fun

We had a blast on the 4th of July. Byron had so much fun helping daddy light fireworks. He loved playing with the sparklers. For about a week after ward he wanted to light fireworks every night. He was so much fun. My little pyro!
We have also been having fun in grandma's pool. At first Byron was a little nervous to get in. Now we can't get him out. All he wants to do now is go swimming at grandma's. He won't wear the floaties anymore either. Jumping off the side of the pool and off the diving board are acouple of his favorite things. He is fearless which makes me a little nervous but when daddy is in the water with him I am ok. Byron is my little fish. He loves the water, which I love. I am so glad that he is not afraid of it. It was funny yesterday in the pool. He tried doing the butterfly stroke. Daddy was doing it, so he decided that he wanted to. It was so cute. He looks like a little frog doing it.

I'm so tired!!

So last night we put Byron to bed around ten o'clock. I went down the hall to go to bed about fourty five minutes later and found Byron asleep on the hallway floor in between his room and ours. When I asked him this morning why he was asleep on the hallway floor, he said, "wanted to watch big tv", and I said, " you didnt make it did you?" He said, "no I tired".

He is so cute. Darn kid.
