James' First Day of School

James' first day of the new school year. He was so excited to get back to school!!!!!!

Lukey looks almost big enough to go to school with him! The second day I picked James up from school his teacher said, "We watched a video on cooperation and James raised his hand and gave the definition of cooperation." It just melted my heart. That's a special little man I've got there. I just know he is going to be a wonderful man one day. (and probably the boss too!)

Thor. . . the Norse God . . .

We have a little joke about Lukey being our Norse God, Thor. He is so big, eats everything, and loves the cool morning weather. He will be stumbling down the sidewalk in shorts and a tee shirt giggling and James is tip-toeing behind complaining that he's cold and wants to go in. They couldn't be more opposite. Here we are out to dinner with Lukey man-handling a corn cob.

California State Fair

We met Tony after work one of the last days of the fair. It was the first time we went in the evening instead of the morning, but it was a nice time to go. Tony and James started off by riding the huge slide. We kept seeing little kids go by themselves and scrub really hard. Even landing and falling over on their heads. The men running the slide wouldn't let Tony and James go together so, Tony last minute grabbed James onto his lap and rode with him. At the end the workers were yelling at Tony' "No more ride for you!!!" Ha ha ha, thanks Tony for the good lookin' out! ;)
James, enjoying a little fair food. I have to say I over-indulged a bit. Tony and I each had a giant corn dog and shared a deep fried veggie platter. Then topped it off with a funnel cake. Need I say more?
James on his first Pony ride. He got a kick out it when they stopped the horses to "scoop the poop." James also won his first fair game. He hit enough balloons with a dart to win one of the Bees from the movie. Bzzzzzzz . . . He was so proud.
After it got dark, Tony and I went and listened to the Eddie Money concert. "I've got two tickets to Paradise . . ."
