Talan's Birthday Present

Talan got a real quad for his birthday. He was so excited. His Daddy had to train him how to use it but trust me it didn't take long and he was off galavanting around the yard. He also got a new helmet.

Ryker got to ride along in the wagon while daddy followed talan around in the lawnmower, not that he could keep up, lol

Ryker's 2nd Gymnastics Class

Ryker had his second gymnastics class tonight, he is doing really good. He gets a little restless at times and has a hard time waiting his turn but all in all it is going fairly well. I am pretty proud of him and he seems to enjoy it!

Walking on the balance beam all by himself, YAY!

Toes to the bar, reeaaachhh!Play time at the end, always fun!

Soccer

This is Talan's spring season of Soccer and he is loving it. He plays every Saturday morning at 9:00. It is such a great program. He plays with a mix of girls and boys and there are about 50 pre-k and kindergarten kids. They practice drills and then they play mini games. He is doing better this season. He is more aggressive and will actually get in there and follow the ball. The last couple games have been really cold so were all hoping for warmer weather.

Over a Year Ago!

Seriously it has been over a year since I have posted anything, life is sooooo busy as you all know. My goal is to start making a better effort to update this blog for all my friends and family. So many of you are far far away and I want to make sure you still have access to what the Parsons are up too! Ryker is 2 now and Talan 5, wow how time goes super fast. Talan is finishing pre-school and more then ready for Kindergarten! Soccer season is upon us and his Dance recital is in two weeks. Tball starts next week and we are also doing Karate and Swimming this summer. Ryker is loving his library class and has just started gymnastics at Twistars. Busy, busy but I love it!! Bird has been working like crazy 9hour days and weekends too! The rain has given him a few breaks but not enough, he is tired! Teaching is going Awesome, I really do love my job :) Trying to manage time between work and family is the most challenging let alone keeping in touch with all my wonderful friends. Stay tuned for some new pic's I need to get them loaded. :)

Trophy Fish

The family went fishing on Saturday! Talan caught this huge crappie fish all by himself. Bird didn't believe him when he said, "Dad, I caught a fish!". But sure enough when Bird made his way over to where Talan was he had this huge fish all reeled in!! They took it to have it mounted on the way home! Bird already has the paperwork filled out to send in so Talan can be a master angular.Talan and proud Daddy!
