Walking to Wimbledon

I probably should have mentioned that life goes on hiatus around here during Wimbledon. 

We watch tennis during the day.  We play tennis in the evening.

No blogging occurs.  We're lucky if we remember to eat.

Oh yeah, we did do one thing worth mentioning this week...

</p>

<p>Cheeks learned how to walk on the 4th of July.&nbsp; Talk about Independence Day.</p>

<p>Just as his brother before him, he was inspired to walk in order to get a treat.&nbsp; </p>

<p>And just as his brother before him, he wasn't wearing pants.&nbsp; Classic.</p>

<p>Pants walked just days after his first birthday.&nbsp; Cheeks made the leap exactly two weeks before his first birthday.&nbsp; Ya gotta push it if you want to keep up with your older brother.</p>

<p>Sunday morning is Breakfast at Wimbledon.&nbsp; A tradition at our house and one for which I have to run to shop for right now.&nbsp; Back to normal blogging schedule next week!</p>

<p>Until then, a couple of other 4th of July moments from our perch on the beach where we took in the show and prayed ever fifteen seconds that we wouldn't get shot in the eye by a bottle rocket.</p>
