Radio Flyer

I have a love with anything Radio Flyer.  It probably stems from my childhood and this fabulous picture.

It used to hang in my room. 

Radio Flyer = sunny days, family fun and lots of laughs. 
My sisters ride the radio flyer wagon down the hill at my parents house every summer since I can remember.   That is a guaranteed laugh.
In fact I'm pretty sure that Rocky and the boys (Jaxon and Carson) rode it down a hill in our family 5K.
Oh the memories.  *sigh*  I love that wagon.

I can see you loving radio flyer too.  Oh and that deep color of red, it's about as American as it gets.

Anywho  - I have an incredible Aunt who remembered the cute picture above thought it would be fun to give James a little Radio Flyer of his own.  At his baby shower I opened up a card from Aunt Sue and a little picture of a Radio Flyer wagon fell out.  I thought, how cute.  Then I read the card and screamed.  A little red wagon was being delivered to our house that week.   I know, probably silly to scream but I was just so darn excited. 

I pulled it out for James today and I'm pretty sure he was feeling the love to.  Or maybe that was me feeling the love for both of us.  Oh well, we spend A LOT of time together so I'm sure if he isn't feeling it now he WILL feel it eventually. 
Yes, Mom, I feel the love too.
Checking this thing out, need to make sure it is sturdy
REALLY checking this thing out.
Oh, yeah!  This is good!
This is the proper way to ride the wagon down the hill (mom made me promise to not do it anytime soon)
The Radio Flyer model pose
Checking to see how it tastes.
Just made mom sigh with this photo (she loves it when I do that)
 Thanks Aunt Sue.  We LOVE it.

I love the model picture. It's perfect. And I heart your camera. Thanks again for coming over the other day. We had a good time, and I hope James had a good time with the big boys. :)

I cannot believe how animate he is, and how many cute faces he makes all the time! He is so adorable! The "radio flyer model pose," where he is looking off into the distance, is SO CLASSIC! Love it!
