Thor called in the big guns

As many of you know, Thor busted his bike last fall.  He has been putting it back together slowly hoping to race soon.  He finally has all the parts and is very close to getting it together.  However, he needed  a little extra help and had to hire a specialist.  One with tiny hands to get in all those hard to reach parts.  You know how expensive specialists can be, fortunately this one worked in the currency of chocolate chips.

Our Backyard

There are many reasons why we count our blessings everyday.  Moving to Idyllwild is just one of them.  When we wake up and look out our back door and see this, we just have to smile and say thank you.  Gus thinks it is so cool.  Don't you think it is time to come visit Poppy?

How Thor keeps in shape

 Thor has been trying to keep in shape for his racing.  Gus is doing his best to help out.  Notice Thor chasing Gus around the house.  They did this for a good half hour.  It was great, it tuckered both of them out.

Dinner Party

We started last week off with a little dinner party.  We had some friends come over with their two little girls.  Also in attendance, was our friend Jaime.  Poor Jaime didn't know what she was getting herself into having dinner with 3 kids under 5.  At one point, after cooking all day and enjoying the fruits of his labor, Thor laid on the floor.  All 3 kids took this as an invitation to hop on Pop!  It was hilarious!  Here are a few pictures.  Notice Gus putting the moves on Naya in the second picture.
