Uncle Bro and Ketrons birthday cake

We went to the lake on Saturday evening for some swimming and to watch the Stockton fireworks show from the water. Ketron got to do his first sparkler.

I think the boys have been watching too much National Geographic, especially Liam. By the time he was done throwing dirt on himself he looked like an aborigine tribesman. I guess he thought it would help keep the flies off. Hopefully he doesn't turn to rubbing dung all over himself. Needless to say the boys had to be hosed off before they could head for the shower. We couldn't be prouder of our boys.

Had a very exhausting Sunday morning cleaning up from the lake the day before. I don't have any pictures of the lake this time but Ketron had another wonderful day. I was so proud of him. He jumped off the island at Stockton where Brent and I spent so much time as kids. It was about 4 foot out of the water and he jumped right in without hesitating.

Last week Ketron stayed with Poppe Queenie and Liam. They took a trip to the boys great great uncle and aunts dairy farm. They got to bottle feed the calves and pet them but they were far more intrigued with the farm equipment.

Jon said if Ketron was all he had to pack around in the military his body might not be so wore out.
