Happy Fathers day

Never a dull minute when daddy's around! He found grandpa's famous Budweiser hat and had to make a statement!

I love this guy!

Yummy, Yummy!

What a grilling man!

Yesterday was that special day for our Fathers and it was a great day at our house. We had family over and had a cook-out with shishkabobs, dutch oven potatoes, salad, rolls, and can't forget desert! It was yummy. We decided we needed a grill so that was Kirby's big Fathers day present. The kids had a great time telling dad they loved him all day. Rusty had his own saying that went like this- Your the best dad in the whole wide city!:) (too cute)

I am so glad my children have such an amazing daddy that loves them. Not to mention the best husband too. I hope you know how special you are to your family.

We love you daddy!!! :)

Guess Who's Walking?

My baby Lacey is walking! She is 13 months old! It seems like she could have walked a month ago but she wasen't so sure about herself. Yesterday we were getting ready to go see our cousins and Lacey stands up in the middle of the floor and walks to me! And since then she has been going around. We are all so proud of her even her brothers were excited!

Rain, Rain, Go Away!

Here is Kirb starting to mow.

Moments later he was drenched!

Saturday is always kind of our catch up day around the house. Since it had been raining for the week the grass was more like a jungle! (thanks Ty!) So Kirby was determined that the grass might be wet but it wasn't raining. So he started mowing.

It was pretty hilarious, it started to sprinkle and then their was no holding back the rain came down! and I mean DOWN!

Kirby didn't give up. He was soaking wet and still mowing strong! What a guy!!!

Funny Things Kids Say!

I guess I should call this: The Funny Things Rusty Says!

1# The other day I was out in the garden weeding. Kirby was using a jack hammer that was breaking off concrete from our fence posts so it was pretty noisy. Rust asked if he could help me in the garden and I told him no, because it was muddy and he didn't have a weeder.
Rusty replied, Yes I do, do you want to see it!
It took me a minute to catch on to what he had thought I had said. I started laughing and had to reassure him that he did have a weeder!!! What a silly boy.

2# Today I was getting lunch and Rusty was up on the kitchen table. The rule is: Stay on your chair! When I reminded him three different times and he was still on the table. I walked around and spanked his bum. (Just to get his attention) He them jumped down and ran into the living room. I let him be alone for a minute and then went in to find him laying on the couch. I said, What's wrong? And he said in a very sad tone of voice. You hurt my life!!! I busted out laughing and said you mean your feelings? He then joined in laughing and realized he said something pretty funny.

My kids always give me a lot of laughs, I love it!!

So It's Your Birthday!

My Rusty man is 4! How do they grow up right before your eyes? Rust is definitely the spunk in our family! He keeps us in check. I love that he is so all boy but at the end of the day he still loves to snuggle and be babied. I hope it stays that way forever. Rusty can melt my heart with his sweet smile and saying "Mom, I love you, your the best!" Their is nothing better.

For his birthday we had a party. Last year I had just had Lacey and Rusty ended up with the flu on his birthday. So we had food, presents, and cake! It was a great time celebrating Rusty's special day. We love you little man!

Happy Birthday Baby Girl!

Here's the birthday girl!

Lacey begging to be held.

"Happy birthday to you" Daddy had to hold her hands so she didn't get burned!

Enjoying her own cupcake!

I can't believe it has been a year since we brought our baby girl home to our family. Where does time go? Lacey is so much fun and fits right into our family. I don't remember life without her. (thank goodness) She is so girly, from bows to bracelets to shoes to kisses. She is the princess in our home that we adore. for her 1st birthday we just enjoyed it with our little family and it turned out really fun. Minus the fact that she is 1!!! Happy Birthday Lacey girl. We all love you!
