Colton's Fifth

The little man turned five! He's five going on 13 and now he's off and running on his first mountain bike. Happy Birthday Son, your awesome!

THE BOY'S FIRST WAVE

AROUND THE HOUSE

Sherri is now past her due date for our second child so I've been trying to stay close to home. I've been missing the swell but have been putting in long hours at the shop and catching up on around the house projects. Its nice to have good help. I should have a second little helper any day now. -SPK

HIKE

Sunny Day
Sweepin' the clouds away
On my way to where the air is sweet

BEACH CRUISE'N

FEBRUARY SAILING

My kid doesn't give a fuck !

As a parent your always trying to capture that one amazing picture that sums up how perfect your child is... You know so you can show everybody else who doesn't care anyway. You say stuff like "Oh this one? I just snapped it, isn't he cute?" ( in reality you blasted out about fifty seven pictures in less than thirty seconds ) and of course your kid could give a shit that your trying to be the next Annie Leibovitz. Well here are some of the other ones, that now in hind sight have turned out to be the real gems.


Yo buddy you looking at me? I'll kick your ass from here to next week!


I can't even explain what the hell is going on here.


Somebody get this kid a bucket!


Apparently my kid the "farmer" just rode his quad back from his secret field some where in Humboldt.


This is what the scene looks like at your great aunts house seconds before that antique chair gets a very modern stain.

COLTON : FALL IMAGE PILE UP

I can't believe that at one point I was worried having kids would slow me down, Colton is just go go go...








...and these are just from this fall.

COLTON LOVES HIS BIKE

COLTON & UNCLE NATHAN

My son and I made a little tardzinger for my brother's 30th birthday to remind him that just cause you get older you don't have to stop having fun. Colton was so stoked to give it to him, here he is showing off the star he (I) painted on it. -SPK

COLTON : POST HURRICANE CLEAN UP

POPSICLES AND SAILBOATS

I picked up a little snark sailboat for short money last week. Colton looks on while I sail it for the first time. -SPK

THE BOY LOVES HIS TRACTORS

SUMMER FUN

3 wheels of fun

The backlight makes it hard to see the big smiles on our faces but its not hard to see why they are there. Father and son sunset tardzinging. -SPK

On the road

It's been a while since I've posted. It was my son's 2nd birthday this past week so I took some time off to spend with the little peanut. Any time you ask Colton where he wants to go, or were he's pretending to drive to, its "THE BEACH !" So we took him to the beach in three different states. We packed up the old VW van and went north to visit friends in NH, Hit up my Bros house down the Cape and spent time with Grandpa in RI. We had a great trip and Colton had a blast. Happy Birthday my boy! -SPK

Spring cleaning

Colton and the Van

My son might be the one person in this world that likes my van more than I do. I'm convinced if he could touch the pedals he'd be driving it. -SPK
