Jake is back from his trip to Idaho where he had an AWESOME time with his cousins and Grandma Gretchen. Tyler started 2nd grade last week. He wanted to wear his fedora hat the first day to look "fancy"! They broke the mold with him. Jake starts fifth grade this week. Friday he and I went surfing and indoor skydiving. We both had a blast. Saturday Jake had a race (did great) and Tyler did some riding. Tyler has gotten too big for his 50 but is warming up to move up to Jake's 65 next year by learning how to shift gears on Kristin's Kawasaki. Today the boys went to their friend Ellie's birthday/pool party.

 A while ago Tyler got the idea he wanted to build the Titanic with Legos. His first attempt was truly “Titanic”, so much so he didn’t have enough Legos to finish it. So I helped him scale it down a little.

Tyler first in line for cake! (that Kristin made)
