Fall 2009

The kids helping in the combine this past fall. Joseph especially loved riding in the tractor with Dad and Ryan was quite the little helper to Uncle Bernie.

Jake and Joseph became quite the buddies this fall. Can't wait to see you again soon!! xoxo

Ryan had quite the fall with the few chances he got to drive the 4 wheeler with us.

We had a great spring break. The kids made a list of movies and activites they wanted to do. We had sleepovers and playdates. The zoo was a fun trip. The weather was nice, but a bit cold. It made for no lines!! We zipped in and around exhibits quickly. Ava cracks me up. She just had to be in a picture with these parrots. She is a total poser for pictures. No matter how many times I ask to act "normal" she freezes. She does a little frozen shoulder thing and looks everywhere but the camera. Crazy child.
