Growing Garden

We planted our garden late this summer and have not gotten a lot of veggies yet (a few cucumbers), but they are growing and will be eating lots of tomatos and peppers soon!

Fun with Friends!!! We FINALLY went to visit Jenea, Cliff and their little girl Cora. The girls were so funny to watch together. Just a few snapshots of them together. Boy where they busy!

Summer...Summer...Summer

I thought that with summer here I would just be posting all the time....But I thought wrong. I think I thrive on busy chaos. Going from here to there. Summer is almost over and there is so much more that I want to do...Pool, Farm, Zoo (again), Camp, etc. We are still busy and growing..all of us (I am trying to do the opposite of grow and slim down by training for a 1/2 marathon in October) . Here are a few pics so you can catch up on what we have been doing.

Spencer turned the BIG 13 this July!!!!!! Can't believe he is getting so old.
Payton at his Shakespeare play "Merry Wives of Winsor". He did a GREAT job!!!

We love the pool. Erin has no fear of water and just wants to JUMP right in.

Trip to Omaha, NE. Boys @ air and space Museum.

Omaha Royals baseball game. A good win and FIREWORKS after!
Omaha Zoo. So Fun!!!

As you can see we have had a BUSY summer. Much more than just in these few pictures. Hope to post again soon before school starts. Not much time left :(

Blue Berry Fun

Erin and mommy went blueberry picking. It was a lot of fun. She loved it. She ate and ate and ate. We picked 14 pounds of blueberries. Some fun pictures of our day.

Right off the vine. Yummy. Just couldn't get enough.

Erin loves the slide. She is starting to go down it herself.

Erin is really starting to copy our actions. She loves playing in her new fisher price kitchen and loves to act like she is cleaning the floors.

Summer fun with the slip-in slide

Brother torture!

Schools out for SUMMER!!!

Well hopefully with school out I will be able to post a little more often than once every couple of months. Boy have we been busy. It just keeps getting busier too. The kids are growing up fast. We have already been to the pool and to a Royals game. Way to start off the summer

Spencer will leave in a week for church camp. We will miss him, but glad he is taking this opportunity to have fun and grow in his faith. He is playing baseball and games start tonight.
We will be running from game to game from here on out. He is playing many positions this year, Pitcher, First base, catcher and short stop. WOW!

Payton decided this year he did not want to play a summer sport. He is enjoying hanging out with friends and He is quite the talker. He will be attending Shakespeare Camp for kids this summer for two weeks. It is all day and they will be acting, learning to set up a stage and even putting on a mini shakespeare play. It will be a lot of fun for him and he will be in the spotlight which he loves.

Miss Erin is just growing and talking and a busy bee. We are so thrilled to just be able to watch every moment of her growing up this summer. (Something I can honestly say I took for granted with the boys when they were small) She is such a little sweetie but is getting quite the personality. She learned to stomp her foot when she wants something. HMMMM...wonder where she got that. Daddy of course.

New Pics...How they Grow so fast.

Spencer is looking like a teenager.

And our baby turned ONE!!!!!! We are having so much fun....busy, but having fun.

She is so cute and just warms all of our hearts with her little smile full of teeth.

She loves it outside.

Big Blue Eyes!
