A playdate with Leah

Jason loves to have playdates with his friends. Leah Burnet is one of his favorite friends from AMA. They had a lot of fun playing volleyball, swimming and playing in the backyard. Leah has been Jasons longest school friend. The one he kissed in the tunnel this last year. We wont forget that story.

Mr McGregor - Happy Birthday Day!

Everytime I look at these pictures I think of Mr McGregor and how sometimes I feel a little like I am not doing everything I should. Sometimes I am sneaking around the garden! This is my Dad and he is amazing, he has done well in life. He has overcome a lot. These were also taken on Dad's birthday. He is 84 and he loves telling people his age. Most people think he is in his 60's I imagine. He can still probably walk faster than anyone.


He told me he was growing something like 70 tomato plants and when I asked him why its because he wants to give away a lot of tomatos.

The State Fair

Another tradition...we love the fair. Always milking the cow or goat, seeing the new born animals (we have yet to see one birthed) and the petting zoo, the rides, the terrible food (well slurpees and fruit are not so bad!), riding the sky tram and trying to catch more exhibits. This year we did catch a few more exhibits and we did a few less rides. David came with us and that was a lot of fun.



I wanted to have the boys crawl inside this pen and take a picture right in front of this big guy!



This mom was trying to get two young ones to latch on, I cant imagine!

Summer Gymnastics Challenge

Jason has really been enjoying gymnastics. He is so strong. I cant believe he can do the things he does. And when he gets in a competition he can find a whole can of spinach kind of muscles.

Crazy Faces

We have some crazy faces....

AMA buds over for some summer fun

We had Jasons AMA friends over...are these goofy boys or what. Jason is definitly a ring leader. Signs of times to come. Crazy boys.

Roosters....what happened?

Our two favorite hens turned out to be noisy roosters. Hedwig and Izzy. Both loved to have Jason hold them. They are the two he trained to take a nap when they were little. So sad to give them up, but they went to a good home with lots of land to run around on.



We got rid of the first crower and then the next one starts crowing. 5:30AM is a little early to hear crowing.
