Camp Out With Dad

Jackson talked Lane into setting up the tent and doing a camp out. Andrew was not to be left out. I popped them popcorn and then they watched a show on the I-pad. About 11, Andrew woke up and was screaming...probably didn't know where he was...so Lane brought him in the house. Too bad he didn't make it all night. At least they weren't in the wilderness!
Jackson loved every minute of being in the tent with his dad! They are two peas in a pod.

Saving Woody!

While Lane was working on getting a drip system put in for some flower pots in the backyard (hence the railing taken out), Andrew put Woody on the ride of his life...and then he couldn't get Woody out! Luckily Lane had the tool to make the extraction possible!
Andrew was devastated throughout the entire process. Dad and Jackson knew just the trick! Woody is saved! Reunited at last.

Lovin' My Garden!

We planted an awesome garden this year. It is full of things I love and not of anything I don't love! (I was soooooo tired of zucchini and squash!)
We have lots of peppers...2 green, 2 yellow and 2 red, plus a jalapeno. Five tomato bushes, including one Roma! Yellow and red onions. Plus the chives that lived through the winter and cilantro. Last, but not least...cucumbers!!!! I can't wait for all these veggies to be ready to eat!

Saving the Strawberries

Our strawberry bushes were very happy and produced lots of baby strawberry bushes last year so we decided to extend our little patch. Jackson was Dad's big helper and they made an awesome cover to protect our strawberries from the birds.Then we decided to enjoy some of our strawberries that were ready to eat!Lane tried to show me a collection of berries, but they didn't even last long enough for me to get a picture. I was hoping to have enough strawberries to make lots of jam this year, but I don't know that the boys will let me!!

Our Water Slide

We set up the water slide for the boys this weekend so they could enjoy the 80 degree weather without us going to the neighborhood pool. They had a blast to say the least.
Chillin' in the pool. Jackson. Andrew. Climbing up. Big Splash. Loving Life.

First Day of Swimming!

Jackson talked his dad into taking them swimming tonight. He had been asking me all day, but I thought it was too cold...70 degrees and windy. The boys had so much fun though so it was good. We also had the pool all to ourselves, so I wasn't the only one who thought it was too cold! As you can tell, all these pictures are taken from outside the pool...I still thought it was too cold to get in! These boys are too cute.
Andrew was a bit nervous at first, and he thought the water was a bit cold. The boys' acrobatics! Just chillin' in the water. Jumping to Dad. High flying. Jackson was a bit more responsive to leaving the pool once he found out that the pool will be open for the whole summer!! He was too excited. Here is to many more days and nights of swimming.

Fun at the Farm!

This will be a photo post for now and when Lane gets home from work, he will add some text in for us! There are a lot of pictures here...
