Jack's thoughts

This afternoon after Devin left for work Jack said "When I am a Daddy I will go to work with my daddy. But I will take the car cause I won't feel up to riding my bike. Will you drive me to work because I won't know how to drive a car?" "Sure" I said. "Yeah, then I can ride in the front seat." Jack replied.

He has also told me that he won't get married since you have to love someone to get married.

Ryan's prayer tonight

Here is an excerpt:

"...and please bless us and my friends because they are important, but not the wicked people. And please bless that we won't have any storms and send the storms to the wicked people and not us."

Cyclocross Pictures...

I will force this upon you guys...I know family hardly ever goes to my cycling blog so here:




Busted my crank arm off on the last lap of this race. It was my first time racing the singlespeed class and my first race on this particular bike that a friend built for me...as in he brazed the frame from a set of steel tubes so that fit me exactly. It was a difficult, slippery, muddy race. Loved it except for the crank arm issue.

Colin Cooking, the Video

He is a funny kid. Good memories here.

Chef Colin

Colin like to help cook whenever we let him. He noisily requests to come up on the counter and wants to stir or pour stuff in to help mix whatever is cooking. He is actually a pretty good stirrer.

And when it comes to eating he likes to eat like everyone else. He uses forks and spoons, even if he has to use his hands to get the food on the utensil. This means it will take him longer to eat than with just hands, but that is not the point with him. He just wants to be a big kid. This morning he was eating waffles and putting four bites at a time in his mouth so that food was nearly bursting out while he was still getting more food on the fork. In the pic below, his mouth was not nearly at its fullest.
