Fishing

One of my favorite things to do is fish with my kiddos!  On this day Lexi caught probably a 3lb catfish and just as Hunter was grabbing the line it snapped off.  You should have seen her struggling to get that thing in LOL.

Happy 8th Birthday Lexi

Lexi had her 8th Birthday party at the Hawthorne Pool this year.  She had so much fun and so did the kids!!

First Day of School

 5th grade and 3rd grade

our first morning school picture. 

I love this comparison picture.  They have grown so much in the last couple years.  Especially Hunter.  He just keeps getting taller and taller.

New Windsor Rodeo

Once again we went to the New Windsor Rodeo and had a fun time!  Lexi just loves the horses and bull riding.  Of course this year she was a little antsy sitting there watching and kept wanting to go ride the rides.

She may not live on a farm but she is a country girl at heart!

Making Pickles

Lexi helped me can some pickles with the cucumbers from our garden.  She did all the spices in the jars and even helped stuff them.  Such a big helper!!

Wisconsin

Hunter took another trip to Wisconsin with Grandpa and Dad to go catfishing.  He has grown so much since last year!!

Oneida Sweet Corn Festival

We decided to take the kids to the Oneida Sweet Corn Festival.  They watched the bed races and played in bouncy houses while the adults tried some sweet corn.  Fun afternoon :)

Kamden's Baptism

Our precious nephew had his baptism.  He is such a sweet boy and we couldn't love him more.  We are not only proud to be his Aunt/Uncle we get to be his god parents too.

Hunter just loves to snuggle with him.  They are so good watching him.

Pee Wee Team

Hunter had so much fun with baseball again this year.  He played several spots this year.  Pitcher- which he did good for never pitching before.  Catcher and baseman.  So proud of him.

4th of July Weekend

We spent our 4th of July weekend out at the lake and had such a fun time with friends and family.  We also had the annual club picnic.  Alicia and I ran a fishing derby this year and it went great and the kids had fun (wish the fishing was better though).

We played 4 wheeler capture the flag with the glow bracelet.  The kids loved this!!

Tina and I made the kids a tent out of sheets to play in.  Even put lights up for when it got dark.

Relaxing in the lake with great friends!!
