The Lake

We went to the Lake Friday night and the kids had fun playing with Maverick and Izzy. Of course they drove Brad nuts when they kept messing with his little tree! Below are some of the pictures I got..finally got to play more with the new camera!

Hunter posing by the lake for me.
Lexi sitting in the chair and giving me this look like..mom not another picture.

Lexi loved Brad and Mel's bear and angel. She kept calling the angel "baby".

The Geese..I love the baby ones. Hunter kept trying to sneak up on them when they were on land because he wanted to pet them..they did not like that and fled to the water.

Izzy posing for me in the grass..she is so cute.

Maverick then wanted his picture taken, he sat down and said cheese.

Hunter's 4th Birthday

We had a small get toghether to celebrate Hunter's 4th Birthday on Saturday. My sister helped me decorate rice crispy treat Spiderman Heads. They actually turned out pretty cute (I was worried when I started to make them).

Aunt Tina and Uncle Ryan got Hunter a tool set with the hat and belt..he loved it and wants to work all the time now.

Me and my little man.

Emma (L) and Lexi kept wanting to sit in the same chair.

Lexi and Aubrie

Ok I wanted to post these because I know Aubrie has the same jammies and I think her and Lexi look kinda alike in these pictures. You can tell they are related. If you look at Emily's blog she has one of Aubrie on it with the same jammie..check it out.

Park Visit

Hunter and I decided to stop at the park in Oneida on our way home last night. We got to spend some Mommy and Me time alone because Dirk had Lexi. He loved it and he even let me get some pictures with my phone. Sorry they are not that great and they look crooked to me.

What a ham!!
He was still too little to do this himself so Mommy had to help several times.

He thought the bridge was pretty cool.

loved the slide too

His butt is still too little for the swing but he liked for me to push him high, although he kept stopping with his feet and it drove me nuts.

Papa's Birthday

It was Papa's birthday last week so we had dinner at his house. Since he never tells us what he wants the kids got him flowers for his flower pots outside. They even helped plant them. Here are some random pictures.

Lexi kept trying to get into the car.

Playtime

They loved playing at the park.
Lexi thinking she is big stuff up there

say cheese!

She was so cute looking through the window

Hunter was at Uncle Ben's games so Lexi drew on the driveway. She was so cute.

Helping Landscape

The kids were helping me landscape the front yard. They were such good helpers. We have planted 2 of the bushes and put some of the rocks down, but I don't have any pictures yet. Next step grass!!

Fun at Hy-Vee

Ok, I had no idea that Hy-Vee had these carts!! I am usually at Wal-Mart and just get the groceries while I'm there. The kids loved these! I will now shop at Hy-Vee for food. It will be nice to not have a 2 year old stomping on the food in the cart. I know I'm a dork but thought I would share this with you all. HaHa.
