To School

It's not Back to School for FRD, cuz it's his FIRST TIME EVER. Last week wasn't the most tear-free, smooth sailing week in recent memory, but we survived. Here are some shots from the final throes of summer.

That Sneaky Fox

So yeah, we let him watch a little tv.

Just Freddy being Freddy

Lake, Bees, Waterfall

FRD took a little August family vacay to Lake Lure. It was a beautiful weekend - great views from Chimney Rock, a lovely morning out on the water, and a ball of a time getting covered in yuckies at the beach. A few less yellow jackets and ever-lurking turkey vultures, and it would have been perfect. Of course, Freddy reports that his favorite parts were watching Dora the Explorer in bed and counting the four air conditioning vents in our hotel room. That's our boy!

Hot New Shades for a Hot New Do

Not sure what to say here

except watch out ladies . . .

Summertime

and the livin' is easy . . .

and at other times (such as when you snag GranJan's glasses), quite perplexing.

Playing with Dad's New Toy

A Completely Ridiculously Behaved Father's Day

The weekend kicked off with a little ride out, but FRD was as skeptical of the moto as his mom is, so the boys didn't really make it past the driveway.

Soon it was time to hit the pool. Literally. This was apparently hilarious.

Then a stroll in the birthday suit. This was also hilarious.

And finally a couple of cold ones at the end of the madness while you kick back, watch some baseball, and hang with dad. Happy Father's Day Dada!
