Yes, we are bike dorks but we are awesome bike dorks....the kind of bike dorks who throw parties and invite people over to celebrate the Tour de France regardless of whether or not they even watch it. Aimee used her creativeness to put together the deliciousness of each leader jersey from the tour and we even made our first dutch oven cobbler (it pays to have a gravel driveway!)
Jackson took home the yellow this year (suck on that Contador!)
Our main goal was to consume as many calories as the riders spent during the final stage of the tour and I'm thinking we came pretty close. We also wanted to see exactly how many families we could fit into our kitchen where our family, by itself, fills it quite nicely.
Next it was time to say goodbye to the 2009 Tour de France in style.....fireworks. The fireworks started with the biggest big bang thanks to the "ball buster" firework (thanks Todd) which was follwed up by roman candles and then came the cops (oink, oink) telling us to put the fireworks away. So I guess fireworks also ended with a little ball busting as well, freakin pigs!
Once the cops left I wouldn't let the man keep us down so the kids stuck it to him with some snaps.
Jackson demonstrated his potential to one day ride the tour as Batman and he even had a crazy fan running along side of him cheering while going up the climb just like in the tour. It was a fun little way to share our nerdiness with our friends in the ville. Thanks to all who came and didn't poke fun a us. (Chambers, Overalls and Craguns...you were missed, I was the only dude there with shaved legs)
On another note, Vive le Piggys! Dang she's cute.
This is what I found when I came home for a quick lunch today, pillows piled on the floor and Jackson teaching Olivia how to make do without a trampoline while ruining a couch. All well, they have fun.

I'll just say it... I think it really gay :0) only kidding- just wish I was there
I like the cupcakes but incase you didn't notice VS added a 5th jersey this year...it was aqua blue and yellow with stripped sleeves. Also, how did your neighbors get away with all the fireworks for 3 weeks and not get shut down??? Anyway we wish we had been there also.
loved the cupcakes, loved the ball buster, and loved preslee running alongside jackson on his bike. i think she loves him:) thanks for the fun party.
Wow, olivia is huge and that hair. I love it. We miss you tons.
