Camping

We went camping again this weekend. We love camping if you haven't noticed. This time we went with our church. It was really fun. The only bad thing was that the mosquitoes were out like crazy. Poor Parker looks like he has the chicken-pocks.

Riley always has to be dirty.Parker always wants to go for a ride.


The boys spent most of their time in the water. I don't know if Jacob ever got out. He was working really hard to get that dam to not brake.


Parker loved the corn. You can see the bites a little better in this picture.We had a ton of fun and made some great new friends along the way.

Park-Man

Parker is getting so big and he is learning all kinds of new things.


Parker loves to swing. I couldn't get him to get off the swing.

Parker has also turned into a monkey.


He figured out how to climb up the bunk beds. I am so excited about that, NOT! He has to stick out his tongue as he climbs up, maybe it helps him. It is really funny. When he gets up on top of the bed, he is so proud of himself, he starts laughing and gets really excited. Funny stuff. He also stays as close to the back wall as he can, good for me, because he doesn't want anyone to reach him and take him off. What a crazy kid! We have a lot of fun together when the boys are at school. He walks around the house like he is the big boy. What a personality he has.

Birthday time!

I had another birthday last week. I am posting about only because I want everyone to see my awesome cake that my sister Stevie made for me. (Thank you Saundra for posting these pictures so I could steal them). It is a mad hatter cake with edible pictures of my wonderful family on it. Stevie is just amazing.
It was also really nice that I had all my sisters there. It seems like it is a lot harder for us all to get together these days. So, when we do we have a lot of fun.

Back to school



I can't believe that I have 2 kids in school. Crazy! I think that Riley was the most excited about school starting. He got all ready and he still had 20 minutes until we had to leave. Jacob was also excited but he knew what was going to happen, Riley didn't.
Parker isn't going to know what to do now that it is only going to be mom at home. I think is will be great.

Lacey Nymeyer

Lacey is so awesome. She swam in the 4x100 free relay Saturday night and took home the silver. She will be swimming again tonight in the individual 100 free. I am so very excited to watch her. I have known Lacey all my life. Our families are very close. Watching someone you know really well, makes the Olympics way better. Lacey you ROCK!!!

I also really like watching Michael Phelps, really who doesn't. He is amazing.

New dew

I chopped all my hair off yesterday. I have never had it this short. I think that I really like it. Sorry for the shine. The flash was on when it didn't need to be and Jacob was taking the picture.

Apple Annie's

We went out to Apple Annie's to pick peaches. We had so much fun, even if it was really hot. This is Jacob and Riley on the tracker ride out to the peaches. It is always fun going on a tracker ride!
Parker trying to figure out if this is a ball or not. He really likes balls and so he things everything round is a ball.
Here are all the peaches we picked. That is a lot. I think too many, but oh well.
