Boatload of Stuff

Holy cow, I get it.  I've been bad at updating the blog.  I have a good excuse, what with opening the new business and all.  But the boys have continued to be adorable, even when wearing their underwear wrong.

 Ryker's got some bumps and bruises on his cute face.  He had a fight with the stairs, and it looks like the stairs won this round.

Rock mastered climbing on to the roof of the playhouse.  He was pretty proud of himself.

But he also wore himself out.

After naps they munched some yummies from Grandma and Grandpa.

They both want to ride the four wheeler, so they finally compromised into a sharing agreement.  They ride it together until Rock pushes Ryker off of the hog.

Rock's cousins came to the lake to play with his uncle Dave.  He was happy to spend time in the water.

 He loved following his cousin and playing with her.  I guess she has a reputation for not being 'friendly', but she and Rock got along very well.

He likes spending time at the beach, because then he gets to ask where the weight room is.  Is it over there?

 He likes his guns.

The office has gotten off to a nice start, so we are very happy about that.  I really like having Rock and Ryker come visit me whenever they want.  Apparently Rock doesn't understand what 'business casual' means.

 He loves showing off his underwear hat.

 Meanwhile, we had a pretty cool evening down on the lake, and this was the sunset.  It didn't turn out well, but trust me it was awesome. 

 See!  DeA loves it!

So, I have so many pics that I have lost chronological order.  Here is Rock from his golf outing with Papa Dave, Aunt Windsey and Daddyo.  He like holding the flag on each hole.

 We got a good father and son pic with the lake behind us.  Special.

 After we all got done putting Rock got to take his turn playing the hole.  His tee box was a little closer than it was for the others.

 Here he was on a longer hole.

 He did get a little impatient waiting for us to finish.  Here he is trying to get Lindsey to hurry up and make the stinking putt!

 Here was one of his shorter holes.

"D'oh!  Too many muscles!" 

The school did a potluck to celebrate (wait, is that the right word?  More like commiserate?) the start of the school year.  They showed How to Train Your Dragon on a monster screen.  Rock made sure to make our spot with authority.

Ryker made sure to eat the Oreos with authority.

 Here's a better look of his scraped up nose from the fight with the stairs.

 Halfway through the movie Rock stripped his clothes off and started changing.  Once again he just wanted to show off the cannons.

 Rock went up to Stehekin with Papa Dale to check out Rainbow Falls.  He kept telling Papa Dale that it was the best water ever, and that he had to get a sip.

So he made sure to get a good sip.

"Ahh!!  Refreshing!"

Here's the whole crew that went up to the falls.  Intimidating.

"Whoa!  Check out that bighorn sheeps!"

All this being adorable really wears the boys out.
