Cowboys and ....more cowboys

I went out to get a haircut tonight and this is how I was welcomed home......

Yet another reason why we need a daughter.




Sam went out this afternoon and kicked his cowboy obsession up a few notches...



He even got a gun....

A real man

A real man rides a tricycle with an army helmet on....




AND
Watches TV with his hands down his pants


How to Stay Busy on a Rainy Day

1. Get out ALL toys







2. Brush Hair


3. Unload Dishwasher


4. Measure Steps

The Best Part of Having Cable

Clearly.....
The best part about having cable is the buttons that come on the box.
DUH.




Sam: "just a little reprogramming and we should be able to get horse racing on here all the time Luke"




Brothers digging for toys.


If I hadn't caught it on camera I wouldn't believe they were playing together & sharing toys....

The new face of TROUBLE

Go Hoosiers!!!!!

Saturday night we took Sam to IU for a football game!!!!!
(poor Luke didn't get to come on this trip)





3/4 of our Family at Beck Chapel where we got married almost 4 years ago....


Grandma & Mr. Ray met us for the fun & Sam snuck in a few kisses....


On the kids field, Knothole Park, for the game.
Fraternizing with the enemy.


Ugh! It's SOOO Hard being an IU Fan!


Two Lifetime IU Fans....
With a combined 39 years of cheering between the two of them...



Daddy & Sam


Mommy & Sam


Back home Sunday....
Now that Luke's crawling we busted out the tunnel.



Brotherly love


Uh-oh! somebody got stuck!!!

This Sums it up.....

This weeks pics

We started off the week by going to River Downs for the last time as it's now closed for the season and won't reopen until after we move



"Whats the big deal about horses??"




I'm sure we won all of $.40 in this race




Then Grandma & Pada came to visit!!


Sam in heaven. Holding a lawnmower while watching horse racing on an iphone


Three Generations of Thompson's mesmerized by Elmo


Sam likes to ride his horse like this because that's how the jockeys ride.
Sign # 359 We go to the races too often.



Sam giving Pada VERY specific instructions on how to draw horses ("nay-nay's"), jockeys ("Giddy-up men") and Barns ("Nay-nay houses")

Pulling myself up is SO much fun!!!!!


Nothing. But. Trouble.

Harry

During a weak moment at Kroger I bought Sam a Horse Balloon




Who he LOVES!
He named him Harry, feeds him carrots and puts him down for naps and bed.


He refuses to let Luke anywhere near Harry.



But when Sam's napping......

"Ya snooze ya loose....."

The Blame Game

I'm not sure which side of the family to blame for Sam's athletic abilities.......
