Fireman Sam

After all this time, Noah still loves Fireman Sam.  Now he has gotten Jacob interested in it too.  The folding chairs just add to the experience!

Is It Any Wonder?

Is it any wonder why so many people say these two look so much alike?

Yankee Doodle Dandy

Jacob can be a pretty serious little fellow on occassion.  Perhaps he just takes parades and the Fourth of July very, very  seriously.  This is a pic from the Hyde Park CDC parade that they do every year.  Even Chip Roy was on-hand to give some remarks before the parade.

Who Can Blame Them?

 

When some of Austin's finest want to get a good picture from the parade, they know right where to go!!!

Family Pic at the Parade

We even found time for a quick family picture before the parade got started.  Memo to Noah and Jacob.....you love the parade every year and we loved being able to walk out the front door some fifty feet, plunk down our lawn chairs and enjoy the parade.

Fourth of July.....

 

....pics all week long.  Both Noah and Jacob loved the balloons before the parade and we must have gone through six of them as they either flew away, got popped, etc, etc.  We also showed our patriotic colors on one of our favorite holidays.

As It Turns Out....

.....the lockers at the YMCA are just Jacob's size.

An Outtake from Noah's Birthday

We were attempting to get him to hold up four fingers for his this momentous birthday occasion.  Instead, this appears to have turned into the picture of a greeting that has not been common for the better part of 70 years from somewhere deep in his ancestry.  Anyway....he still loved the blueberry pancakes!

Happy Birthday Noah

Noah turned four years old yesterday and what better way to celebrate than with blueberry pancakes!
