Step 2 - Show off crazy hair

Step 3 - Laugh hysterically

What's so funny?

Here is a video from a few weeks ago that Kaylee's friend took.  Ryan thinks his Aunt Kaylee is hilarious (and he loves her very much!!)

Who wants to go bye-bye?

Leaving the house has become one of Ryan's favorite things.  He loves pointing at the door as if saying "please get me out of this tiny condo".  This is good because the last few weeks he has spent a large amount of time not at home.

We recently returned from a trip to Wisconsin Dells with the Golden family.  Ryan enjoyed showing off his beach body at Noah's Ark.  He even went in the wave pool!

Having fun with his Papa


Ryan has spent the last few days bonding with his grandparents while his parents were hard at work painting.  Highlights from his trip to Memaw and Papa's included riding a fire truck, swimming in the pool and a playdate with Mia!

Ryan loved to get on his truck but could not get off!

This must have been when Mia stole Ryan's shoes :)

Ryan finished off his grandparent time with a trip to Dwight with Grandma and Grandpa Sand.  Highlights included a golf cart ride and sword fight with Grandpa.

Breckenridge or Bust!!

How to describe our trip to Breckenridge??

a.  Fun
b.  Exhausting
c.  Oxygen depriving
d.  All of the above

As you can probably guess, the answer is all of the above.  We had a great time but it was extremely tiring!! It turns out Ryan does not function well (or sleep well) at 9,603 feet.

Some highlights included breakfast at the Blue Moose, a family bike ride to Frisco (ask Matt about hauling Ryan up a 200 foot incline) and white water rafting (minus the kids - Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Sand!!).  Despite the lack of sleep, we had fun hanging with the Sand family and are looking forward to a return trip sometime soon!
