Adam's hair cut

He was so good and so sweet-

At the Berry Patch

We went to Berry Patch Farms with our friends Amy, Davis and Savannah in early October. We went on a tractor ride and picked flowers but we spent most of our time picking rasberries. There are hundreds of bushes.

The perfectly ripe sun-warmed rasberries were hard to resist so we snacked as we filled our baskets. It was a beautilful warm day.

I'm so thankful that Amy took these fantastic pictures and I'm so glad we made the trip.

Campin' at Yogi Bear

Every year Gamma and Papa take Jana "camping" at Yogi Bear park for an early Halloween celebration. This year we brought Adam up for the last night too. We all stayed in their big trailer and it was so much fun.






The kids went on a wagon ride with Yogi and Boo Boo, decorated pumpkins, played bingo, mini golfed, went trick-or-treating, and boogied at the dance party. The outdoor dance party was complete with a DJ and Disco ball.

1st Day of 1st Grade!

We're so pround of our little sweet. Jana is adjusting to 1st grade and she's doing great. She loves to stay busy all day. Adam and I love to walk her to the bus everyday and wave. I can't believe my baby girl is getting so big!

Nana & Grandad's Visit

This time my parents were out to visit, it was a working vacation! My mom kept Adam busy while my dad and I worked. We (he) removed a couple of tons of rock from our backyard, planted 6 trees and 15 plants, laid a flagstone walkway, built a swing set and put a slide off the deck! No problem!
I'm very thankful for all of the help and miss them now that they're gone.

sometimes they actually get along!

Especially when sleeping...

"Best Buddy Guy Man"

Just the other day Adam told Mike " you're my best buddy guy man". Mike melted and the title has stuck.

Visit from Gregg

My cousin Gregg was in town and came over for dinner this summer. We hadn't seen him in years and he'd never met the kids. It's too bad we don't see eachother more often. I'm so glad we got a chance to catch up and hear about Brian and Tara's family too. We're hoping it won't be so long before the next time we're together

GO ROCKIES!!!

Mike and Jana went to their annual Rockies fireworks game on July 3rd. They were there with our friends Brian, Cherie, and Ella. The kids had a great time running around on the field. The game went into the 11th inning but it was worth it because the firewoks show was one of the best they'd ever seen.

Visit to Hurricane

Here are some pictures from our visit to my parents place in Hurricane. Jana and Nana had fun creating their own recipes with strawberries. We went swimming in the lake, pool and hut tub. Jana, Nana, and I went to see the play "High School Musical" and it was really good. Jana's never seen the movie but knew some of the songs and had a lot of fun.

Adam got his tiger face at "kid palooza". He loved looking at himself in the mirror and he roared all day! The trip was well worth the drive and we're planning to do it again next summer.
