MAJOR Catch up!

I haven't posted anything since Christmas! Super busy with fun outings, Spring Break, Crossfit, school projects, talent show and a Birthday.  So here is a quick run through of recent events!

The Texas Rangers baseball team had a Fan Day.  
Running the bases, touring the locker room, dugout and waiting in line for autographs!
Little Man and his friend P as Sports News guys!

Spring Break 2017
We traveled up to Oklahoma for the tail end of our Spring Break.



Watched cousin J's riding lesson


While LM and his other cousin J played with the dogs.

And of course I had to take a pic of other animals at the farm.

This is the only pic I have...I think the rest are on Dads phone.


4th Grade Famous Texans Wax Museum
The 4th Graders at LM's school have a project for Open House night.  4th Grade Wax Museum!  The pick a famous Texan and do a presentation (to be read in the first person) during open house night.  LM picked J. J. Watt from the Houston Texans football team.  Although he wasn't born and raised in TX, J.J. is a Texas favorite! ;)

Fun with friends!
The last day of March was warm enough for swimming and playing outside in your swimsuit!  While the Moms visited and relaxed...ahhhh.


Post swim fun!


And because I thought this was funny....LM, not so much!



Geez Mom!


Biking!
LM has been moaning about the fact that he can't run around the neighborhood and go to his friends houses by himself.  We explained that if he learned how to ride his bike, he would have much more freedom to get where he wanted to go!  And a new bike for his Birthday.  
It finally sunk in!
We called the local bike shop for pointers and LM agreed to try again.  The local guy said to take the pedals off his current bike, have him push with his feet and lift them up to coast.  Once he gets gets used to balancing, put the pedals back on.  
I couldn't get the videos to load!!!

Day 1 - Using his feet to get his speed up and then lifting them up to coast around!  Got it in no time!

Day 2 - Put the pedals back on and he was off!  Riding around the parking lot and up and down the sidewalk.


Birthday!!!
10 Years Old!
We have a double digit Birthday Boy!

Since he learned how to ride his bike, we pooled his Birthday money from the Grandparents, covered the difference and bought him his first big guy mountain bike.
He was so excited!  The bike has shocks, a water bottle cage and gears!  Such a big deal. :D

And of course, the tradition of The Birthday Hat!
