10 x 10

Everyone is so excited when the end of school rolls around, but no one moreso than Liam.  Summer break means late nights, later morning wake-ups, and most importantly our annual trip to Fruita to celebrate our very special little man.

This year was a little different than most: this time it was just the Deming clan among a ton of other campers, who the boys quickly made friends with-(biggest fire competitions among campsites will always draw a crowd), the weather was not so much "windy cactus" as it was "pleasant soggy", and this year meant longer, more technical rides for a now 10 year old boy!

10 reasons to love a 10 year old boy:

1. You can ride a wheelie longer than anyone I know

2. You're jokes are actually pretty funny

3. You say "please" and "thank you" without being reminded to

4. You try 

5. You talk a big game, but are secretly sensitive

6. You are an amazing athlete

7. Everyday is an adventure, sometimes good, sometimes bad

8. You are quick to laugh & cry

9. You have a great imagination

10. You are so dang cute!

Liam: you are all about airsoft guns, your cowboy boots, and sports of all kinds.  You are especially fond of your littlest brother, as he looks so much like you did!  You are as sassy as you are sweet.  And your friendships mean the world to you, which became so clear as your All-Star baseball team ended it's season and the tears flowed.  Not because your team lost, but because it was over.

Liam, we love you.  You keep us challenged, you keep us laughing, and you keep us guessing.  You are an amazing boy full of piss and promise!  We wouldn't have it any other way.
