Annalise growing up!

Pigtails that actually (for the most part) stayed in!!

 Safety first. Here I go...

Feeling the love!

They actually really like reading together! Each with their own book of course!

Rides on Great Grandma's walker!

Swimming Lessons

Wren just loved his swimming lessons. He learned all sorts of new 'tricks'! We had a great week for weather and can't wait for next year!!

Too Quiet

As I was finishing up dishes I had one of those 'uh oh, it's too quiet' moments. Checked on the kids and this is what I found:

What a mess!!

Thanks Pinterest for this fun activity! The kids loved it. Made 'slime' out of Metamucil and water. But what a mess!! Impromptu bath in the middle of the day! 

Wake Up Time

Smoker experiments!

Had a great time celebrating Colin's 30th birthday with friends! 

We had lots of delicious experimental food including a few on the smoker: atomic Buffalo turds, swinapple, and a fatty! Mmm so good! 

My Farming Family!

Jake Chenier

Enlightening our children about the musical talents of Jake Chenier! 'I Can Hear the Train' is an instant favourite!

Mommy and Me time

Enjoying mommy and me time while Wren was helping grandpa with the combine. 

Apparently she was thirsty...

And here comes our little farmer with a HUGE grin on his face after his combine ride!

Spray plane

Living under the air show!

Little Bean Helper

He took his job rather seriously! 

So many beans!

Annalise helped too. I'm still finding beans all over my house :)

Tinkertown!

On the carousel! More pictures to come from the camera...

Uncle Morgan

Just had to snap a picture with uncle Morgan so the kids remember him for next visit!

Life at the lake

Paul's (great neighbour) sand box is a frequently visited place!

Digging holes

My happy camper!

Giggling with grandma!

Pool time by the water's edge...
