Daddy...You know what I always dream about?.....

A few weeks ago we were all just driving along when Damon said "Daddy? You know what I always dream about? SPORTS!!!"

We thought it was pretty cute, and it did not surprise us one bit to hear him say that. This kid really is obsessed with sports. Although we complain that he doesn't show as much interest in other things as we would like him to, we do love that he loves sports.

his first day skiing

i need new pictures of him on his bike. He goes up ramps and off curbs now.

he gets down in this position and tells me we are going to play "ready hike", rather that just playing catch.
