Colton

Colton is a month away from turning 4! I can't believe it! He can be SO crazy & silly one minute, and then incredibly loving & sweet the next. The crazy and silly is more common though.

He definitely has a strong mind of his own. He decided he wanted to take his training wheels off sometime in late July or early August. Next thing I knew, he was riding around as fast as he could pedal. He scares me, always seems to walk on the line between Fun and Disaster. :)

He started in the 3/4 pre school class last week. He screamed and cried on the first day. The second day he didn't even look back when the doors opened. I think he'll have a blast this year. His best friend (the only person he knows in the class) is Brooke. She's a cute little girl, she's the sister of one of the boys that was in Garrett's kindergarden class last year.

Updates on the Lutz family

Shrimp! We went to Friday Harbor in the San Juan Islands for the 4th of July. Garrett spent hours laying down on the Dock, net in hand trying to get these little buggers.
4th of July Parade on Lopez Island, a short ride in the Dinghy from Friday Harbor.

My parent's took us on their boat for Garrett's birthday. That's what he wanted to do ;) He spent the afternoon fishing and picking starfish off the bottom side of the dock.
Here's Colton "fishing". He has to do everything his brother.
Garrett is still into Power Rangers. He's broaden his horizon to include Transformers, Spider man and "Magnetix." Yes, we've talked about the dangers of putting those things in their mouths. :)
More 4th of July

Snow boots in July

So far summer has been pretty uneventful. The boys enjoy riding their bikes and playing with the neighbor boys.

Check out Colton's feet. On this particular day it was near 100 degrees, one of the hottest days on record!

Colton is the "Champion"

Oh my, it has been a LONG time since my last post! Colton is our little actor! SO dramatic, everything he does is over the top and melodramatic. It's funny, he kind of sounds like someone else I know................could it be his daddy??? ;) In the Youtube video Colton thinks he is racing Garrett. So, when he gets to me he thinks he "won" the race. What race? There wasn't a race. Garrett was playing with someone else. Colton's overactive imagination was in overdrive. :)

Garrett's last day of School

Last day of School Sunshine Mountain

Garrett "graduated" from Kindergarten.

It was a fun day. Family and friends were invited to spend the last half of the day at the school as the kids had a "field day," playing games and showing us all the fun things they learned during the school year. After the fun and games, we sat down on the floor for a little picnic.

Click on the picture, I posted a "web album".
