Boating with Adam

Tonight Kevin, Benny, and Claire went out on Adam's boat.  They came home exorbitantly excited to tell me of the speed of Adam's boat :)  The night before, we went to his house and rode his four-wheelers.  Adam is raising the next generation of adrenaline seeking thrill riders.

Random pictures from our phones from the spring/summer that make for good memories :)

Benny likes to pretend that he is dropping Claire off at the store :)

Blueberry

Yes.  We are expecting baby #3.  We found out quite awhile ago that this one is a girl!  I'm so far behind on blogging that now I am 31.5 weeks along.  Benny fondly calls this little miss Blueberry :)  We even had a fun 'gender-reveal' party.  Here are the highlights:

Little Fishy....

Benny can swim the length of the pool!  Afterwards, I told him he was a good little fishy.  His response?  "I'm not a fish Mommy.  I do not get my oxygen through gills."  That kid.

Easter Joy!

 This Easter was particularly fun with two cuties who both were excited.

Easter egg coloring with Ella and Luke...

Claire and Luke helping out the bunny...

Our bunny always comes on Saturday.  He knows Mommy is awfully busy on Easter Sunday.  The Bunny selected these awesome sunglasses.

Community egg hunt with the bunny.

Her egg collecting skills have significantly improved this year.

A speedy egg hunter...

Post Easter dinner at Lindy and Stevie's house=playing with chickens.



It is sort of hard to see in the photo, but Stevie and the kids made a kite.  Success!


My mom is a twin.  She and her sister celebrate their birthday tomorrow!  Birthday cake for dessert!
