Frontier Ranch

We are here at Frontier Ranch. We just finished our first week here. It has been a great week. Blake has done a great job with program. They are having a blast and Brayden and I are having fun watching them. Brayden is not walking yet. He still can't quit stand up by himself. He just got his two front teeth in since we have been here and the two beside those are starting to come in.


This is a picture of us at the Western Night. Doesn't Brayden look adorable?




This is Brayden with Chevy and Ford. Josh Loy is Chevy and Blake is Ford.

The Indian is Benjamin Pettigrew.


Blake dyed his hair for one of his characters. He is reading to Brayden before he goes to bed.


This is Ray and Blake's characters, Whoa and Sweet. Blake is on the right. They are Malibu's sons from American Gladiators. They are the game characters, which means they lead upfront games.
Ray with an awesome mullet wig.

Rainy day at Frontier.


Brayden was ready to go to bed.

This is the slide at Frontier Ranch. It is huge. This is a picture of Jamie taking Benjamin down it. We are not sure that Brayden is quit ready for that.



This is when we stopped in Tulsa, OK on our way to Colorado.
Brayden fell asleep in the car with sunflower seeds and toys in his lap.





We decided to take Brayden down the slide. They turned it down for us, so it wasn't so fast. Brayden loved it. He laughed as we were going down. It was lots of fun.



Then we all (Ray, Jamie, Benjamin, Josh, Anne, and us) went down it together in a train. We got a little seperated at the end. Blake, myself, and Anne came first and then....
Josh, Brayden, Jamie, Benjamin, and Ray

We took a group photo after the group slide.



Here is some video from the opera. The opera is a 30 minute culmination of the characters stories. The reason that it is called an opera is because they lip sing to songs through it. You may not be able to understand what they are saying, but you can get an idea. The main characters are Chevy and Ford (Josh and Blake). The bad guy is TNT (Ray). TNT wants to tear down Frontier Ranch and build a firework tent. Chevy and Ford are trying to save Frontier. There is more, but I couldn't fit it all on my camera.














The guys in red are Josh and Ray. They are "Baby and Baby", baby rappers. Thier story is that famous rappers babysat for them and they stole their raps. There are three skits and this is the last one. Blake has been the straight guy who tells them they are crazy, but this time he does a rap to Eminem's song "Lose Yourself". He talks about moving to a big boy bed. At the end of the skit, the assigned team babies come out. Brayden is the one on the left in the red pajamas. He start rockin to the music.

This clip on the right is Brayden and Benjamin wrestling in the bed. We went to get Brayden up and they played in the bed for a while. It was so cute.

Summer Vacation

Here are pictures from our vacation to Florida. We went to Port St. Joe with Ray and Jamie Pettigrew. This was Brayden's first time to the beach and he loved it. Enjoy!










Brayden walked all up and down the beach with his car.
