The Burch Creek 4th Ward Primary Bike Parade
This evening was the Burch Creek 4th Ward's Primary Bike Parade. IT began with the kids decorating their bikes with balloons and paper. Next, we devoured "hot dogs", chips, and water. A cop in our ward than taught the children about bike safety, and than the parade began. Julian and Harrison got on their bikes and then took their respective places behind the cop car, as it lead us around the church twice.
Harrison took his time riding around; he took the time to wave to all the parents and grandparents who had gather to witness the parade. Olivia was sitting behind me on my bike, and Julian was riding neaqr the front with his classmates.

The very first shot Harrison took, he actually hit the cup on top of the wall and knocked it off.
We proped a soad can up and when we hit it we could hear the BBs rattling around in it until they came to rest on the bottom of the can. We spent an hour shooting (it was the fastest hour in our lives).
On the way home from camp the boys were making arrangment with Grandpa to go up again next month for more shooting.

Daily Harrison
The boys were outside in the front yard playing foam lightsabers with a neighbor kid. I poked my head out the front door to check on them. At the time I was eating a piece of chicken. Harrison wanted to share a piece with me, so I tore him off a piece of it. He quickly grabbed it and ran back to play with the boys.
As I turned back to go inside, I heard him yell to the others, "Now stop, I'm eatin' chicken here!"

To Make One Pause...
"The certainty that life cannot be long, and the probability that it will be much shorter than nature allows, ought to awaken every man to the active prosecution of whatever he is desirous to perform. It is true that no diligence can ascertain success; death may intercept the swiftest career; but he who is cut off in the execution of an honest undertaking, has at least the honour of falling in his rank, and has fought the battle, though he missed the victory."

Harrison
This morning we were sitting on our bed playing with Olivia (actually we were arguing as to who would feed Olivia her breakfast), when Harrison came in to join us. He quickly accepted the mission of going into the kitchen and getting his little sister a Graham Cracker.
A short time later we hear him struggling with a new box of crackers. The next thing we know the box of crackers popped open and fell to the floor and then "OOHHH! I didn't 'spect that to happen," Harrison exclaims.
We could hardly contain or even disguise our laughter as he came triumphantly back into the room with the broken cracker pieces in hand.
That boy makes me laugh.
