Helping brother walk...

There is nothing like homemade ice cream and homemade lemonade...:)

Chris and I were married almost 4 years ago in this very spot, and now we have two little boys. I can hardly believe how time flies!

We loved having Damon, Tessa, Deuce and Dante stay with us on Saturday night. Deuce and Hazen loved playing together while Fischer and Dante went fishing with their Dads.

The view from our front deck...

Summer Days...

I have a picture of Fischer last year about this time standing up and looking out G'ma's window. Now baby Hazen is big enough to do the same thing....










I couldn't resist taking this picture today...

Fischer rode with Daddy for a couple of hours today in the swather...

We loved having baby Maya and her parents and baby Corbin and his parents visit last night. I didn't take a picture of baby Corbin, but we sure enjoyed seeing everyone!

Fischer and Daddy fishing...

I had to take a picture of Hazen's "Sunday outfit." His sandals were so cute!!!

It's that time of year again...

Can you tell Chris wants me to stop taking pictures and get into the tractor so he can start baling again? I think I am going to take my mom's advice and slap him upside the head everytime he makes a weird face and ruins the picture! Don't you think this would have been a great picture if Chris would have been smiling too????

Can you see the hawk sitting on the bale? He waits there until a mouse comes running out of the hay, and then he swoops down and catches it.

We have at least 20 baby antelope on our road. Fischer always says that the "baby antelope are running to their mommies" when we pass by.

I had to add this picture because it seems like Hazen has grown up all of the sudden. Yesterday I put all of his 6-9 month clothes away, and now he is in 12-18 month clothes. He is pulling up on everything, and into everything. He can crawl up the stairs like a pro, but coming down is another story. He is also obsessed with our fire place.

Lots of baby antelope....

I have lots of other pictures to post, but for some reason the internet is not working. I will post more tomorrow....

Dad brought a horny toad home...





My walking partners....

My internet is working now! :)

I hope everyone had a Happy 4th of July! We sure had fun. We took the kids to a parade in town, and then went to a cookout.








Fischer especially loved the fire engines and free candy at the parade!

Aunt Emily came with us to the parade.

Chris and Fischer enjoying the deck out front. Our whole family is enjoying the deck. It is so peaceful to sit outside in the evening. We still need to do a few things to finish it. It will be alot safer once we put the railing up.

Daddy and Hazen riding together.

Chris has his normal camera smile on....:)

I think Fischer enjoyed spraying his brother more than he enjoyed playing in the pool.

Fischer sitting among Mommy's flowers. I couldn't resist taking this picture. :)

This is a tribute to our stairs that served us well for several years until we were able to build our deck out front.

It was a good thing we started to build our deck when we did because these poor stairs had about had it!

Fischer had to help with every little project while we were building our deck.
