Facing Fears

Some may know, others may not know but, my dear Andrew has a little fear of horses (little...or a lot). His boss on the other hand is possibly addicted. Back in May, when the Celtics actually were playing well, he made a bet with his boss that if the Celtics loose he will ride one of his boss's horses for 20 minutes. Well, we all know how that turned out--so Andrew had to face his fear and COWBOY UP!
The time went down to 9 minutes by allowing the rest of UVU's Student Life Staff watch. It then got down to 4 minutes, by wearing this get-up.
Each item was 1 minute off (hat, shirt, pants, belt, and boots).
Here he is, being led by his boss, Phil.
(He is freaking out inside)

Jack begged to go too. I'm glad the irrational fear isn't being passed to our son.
(With Jack on with him, the fear grows)
I am so proud of him. He said after, "I will be perfectly happy never doing that again".

Emma Update:
(I know I should just make a separate post, oh well)
She is growing way too fast. She has started liking the mobile & the toy hangy mobile thing on her bouncing chair.

She has also found her hands, and enjoys sucking on them.
ENJOY!
