  Oh @TJ1979, E is so cute on her bike!!! How does she like it?

  
  

  Oops, forgot the QOTW: G has had a few trims at home that went horribly wrong. His hair grows really fast, so I started taking him to a local kid's place. His stylist did a great "boy cut" so we go to her whenever his hair gets down into his eyes. I didn't keep a lock of hair.

  
  

  We went to the fair last Friday and had so much fun! This is G riding the barrel horse
