Easter fun
Easter came and went with tons of Easter egg hunting and family time. The boys really got into the hunting this year and couldn’t wait to get going. Hunting at Granny’s and they are off! Little H found the golden egg with 1 dollar in it, but Sam wanted to hold it. We also dyed Easter eggs […]
A Pillar in our Family
Tomorrow we lay to rest one of the greatest men I have ever known. He was a pillar in our family, so strong, smart, loving, silly and perfect. Yes, I said it. Perfect, he was and still is a perfect man in my opinion. He lived a long and full life, with a wonderful wife […]
Stuck at home
I wish I could say the reason I haven’t been blogging lately is because we’ve been traveling and enjoying life, but the sad truth is we are stuck at home with the flu, slowly hitting each member of the family and lingering it’s way through the week, blah, blah, blah……. I will be back to […]
Cell phone free tractors
The boys will be happy for days, since we got to go ride on the tractors. Poppy and Pop-po were plowing up their rice fields to prepare for this year’s crop. And of course we took full advantage of the tractor rides. For some reason I find it funny when farmers (aka my dad and grandpa) always […]
Oh, Christmas Tree!
This Christmas the boys are 3 and very interested in helping decorate their own tree. I simply set out their ornaments and they started decorating. They took the job very seriously and loved hanging the ornaments, wherever they would stay. Which resulted in some unique decorating tricks. While they were decorating their tree I was […]

A Tractor Birthday Party
We celebrated the boy’s 3rd birthday last weekend with a tractor themed party. We rented this “train” that you pull behind a lawnmower. Really that’s all they needed, they could have ridden this thing all day, it was a hit. We also had my niece’s bouncy house. and a tractor tire full of corn, and […]
Witches, Monsters, and Cowboys.
Our Halloween started Saturday with a fun trip to the carnival. We played lots of games and visited with friends. We even ran into a super Witch! Little W was not to thrilled about this witch (Brooke) so she had to make a quick exit. Then for Halloween the boys dressed up as cowboys. They […]

We started off cutting the tops off and scraping seeds, Little H was was handy with his small spoon and tiny pumpkin. *notice the […]
