SNOW!!

The other day it finally snowed again in the valley.  Look at all the snow up on the mountains!

Unfortunately for Rock, it snowed less than an inch.  But, that didn't stop him from getting his snow plow ready to push snow.

"Look how good I do at clearing snow!  You can't even tell that there was any here!"

I don't think that Ryker ever realized that there was snow on the ground at one point.  He was just happy to be outside where no one can smell his stinky baby farts.

Rock found the one patch of a snow-like substance and went sledding.

It was a long ride of at least 18 inches.

Oh well, at least he had a good time.  All night he just kept talking about how he shredded the hill like it was cheddar cheese.

Saturday night we had a birthday cake for Rock.  He even blew the candle out all by himself.  Happy birthday big guy!

Wait a minute, it's not his birthday!  Apparently he talked his aunts into singing for him before they cut the cake that they bought for themselves.  He's a little schemer he is.

Meanwhile, at Deseret Books the other day Ryker ran right into the corner of a table that was set up.  It left him with a giant goose egg and bleeding cut.  This is the best picture that I could get that shows the goose eggedness of his injury.

He finally got over the pain by playing with Elmo on the iPad.

He loves to count animals and have adventures with Elmo on the thing.  He and Rock fight over it all the time, unless Mama Rae is there to protect it.

Ah, look.  With the bandaid you'd never know that he has a big owie.  DeA like that because it keeps the judging eyes from judging her judgmentally.

Oh, and he likes the game with the train that plays the same song over and over.  I get it, someone is in the kitchen with Dina and they are strumming on the STUPID BANJO!

The other night Dad and I were watching bullriding when Rock joined in.  He noticed that the cowboys were all wearing vests.  He did what any good cowboy would do and found the only vest that he owns.  Now his cowboy getup looks like this:

Yes, that is a dress vest similar to what a banker would wear, complete with the pocket square.  But you try telling this cowboy that it's not the proper attire.
