Kentucky Derby

Marci and I have a semi tradition of watching the Kentucky Derby every year. We could care less about horse racing in general, but, it's true what they say, the Kentucky Derby is the most exciting 2 minutes in sports.

This year we had a party and invited some friends over. Since the Derby is all about big, ugly hats for the ladies, the rule was that the women had to wear hats of some sort.

Here were the results:

Gavin got into the act as well:


It was a really fun day. Homemade hamburgers, good conversations and the kids even had their own horse race with stick ponies after the real race was over.

Rock climbing Caleb


We had a stake activity called "Family Fun Day" - basically a small fair type thing at our stake president's farm. They had a small climbing wall there that Caleb REALLY wanted to climb. He did okay - this picture is essentially as high as he got before getting scared.

Marci did it too and got all the way to the top.

Bathing the boy


Gavin really likes having a bath. It's great fun (apparently) to splash around and (again, apparently) chew on the washcloth.

He's just stinkin' cute is all I have to say.
