Rodeo and Legos


Last weekend we took the boys to the Stockshow and Rodeo. They had a pretty good time watching the horses and cowboys - but they were most excited about having a corn dog and lemonade for lunch.

They even got their own clown nose. Unfortunately at this point, my camera battery died. After the rodeo we went to Fort Collins to have dinner with Tim, Stephanie and family.

On Sunday, Ryan was excited to put together the big Lego set that he had bought the previous weekend. Luke tried to help him out at first - but Ryan really wanted to do it himself and Luke lost interest in just watching.

Ryan proceeded to spend 4 straight hours putting together a 400 piece, 3 book instruction, Lego set almost completely by himself. He was so proud of himself and I loved seeing him so focused on something for so long.

Luke watched for awhile - but then he got to go to Costco with Greg - which means a hotdog for lunch and free samples.

When Ryan is really concentrating, he sticks his tongue - just like his Grandad.

The boys have had a good week - they've stayed busy with school and they are making such great strides in reading. We were reminded once again this week how fast they are growing up - Ryan has a loose tooth. He is so excited about it and Greg and I are in disbelief that we have a child old enough to lose a baby tooth.
