Jacob

Jacob finished school at the end of May. He had a wonderful teacher, Mrs. B! She took all the kids on some wonderful learning adventures. On the last day of school, she invited the class to her backyard. They released 250 ladybugs. Mrs. B told the kids that just like the lady bugs were ready to be released, they too were now ready for Big Kid School!

The kids were very excited and they really enjoyed seeing all the ladybugs. It seems like yesterday Jacob was a little baby, and now he's ready for kindergarten!

We will miss you Mrs. B!

Funny Pictures

I love how determined he was to make those dandelions seeds blow off! The last picture has the best expression. I guess those seeds weren't ready.

Scapbooking too!

I haven't posted anything related to scrapbooking yet. So today is the day! Thanks to some really great friends who were able to babysit for me I attended a digital scrapbooking class and learned a few new tricks. I love the pictures I used on this page. We used Elements 6 to create the page.

Isn't she a cutie! We are so blessed!

Thanks lobbsters for taking the kids, all three! Auntie and Uncle have the magic touch because they managed to convince Sarah to take a bottle. Yeay!

Backyard Fun!

Jacob wanted to show me some moves. Some Indiana Jones moves as he called them.

Nathan posed for me on the slide.

Taming the Jungle!

With all the rain, camping and Chris being away there has not been much time to mow the lawn. Finally the rain stopped and the boys were able to cut the grass. Jacob and Nathan both have their own lawn mowers, and the really like to "help" out! It is fun to watch them copy Chris's every move. Needless to say, the yard looks so much better and the tall jungle like grass is gone.

I forgot about....

While we were in Montana, we also visited the MAZE. The kids like trying to find their way to all the letters and spelling out MAZE. This place also has bumper boats which were very fun. We had great weather that day so getting wet was not a problem. The kids also drove in the cars. Nathan was very excited, he was too small last year to do this. We ended this day by mini golfing. However, when you are golfing with Nathan it becomes speed golfing. He also liked setting up his ball as close to the hole as he thought was necessary. Jacob and I tried to keep up with our speed golfer. Thankfully no one else on the course in front of us and Auntie Kathy was behind us.

Camping in Montana

We had a great weekend camping with our friends in Montana. The kids loved playing at the park, roasting hot dogs and marshmallows by the fire, and even a dip in the pool. We checked out the Mysterious vortex place and I have to say, we saw some unusual things that made us wonder. Another highlight of the weekend was feeding the baby animals in the petting zoo with these giant bottles. We had a little rain but for the most part the weather was pretty good.
