1st Tractor Ride

A few weeks ago when we were in Idaho, Dane went out on his 1st tractor ride with is Grandpa Turpin! Dane just loved it! (Even though the look on his face isn't proving it) I can't wait until he gets older so we can go to Idaho in the summers and he can help out his grandpa and uncles on the farm!

Family/4th of July

We had the opportunity to go to Idaho over the 4th of July. My brother and his family were going to be there from Washington and its been 9 months since we have all been together! To say the least, we had a BLAST! Our trip consisted of laughing, eating, swimming, drinking diet cokes, laying out, laughing more, fireworks, playing, roasting marshmallows, fishing, golfing, playing games, late nights, Micky Mouse pancakes. We were able to capture a family picture too!!

Bo and Steve fishing. That kids seriously LOVES to fish. He just couldn't get enough of it!

Dane loves his cousins! It was hard to see them leave because he was just warming up to them but we know that we will see them again hopefully sometime soon! Dane loves music and so Vy would go and play the piano and Dane would sit in front of her and bounce up and down and clap when she was done!

Whats a 4th of July without going to the RUPERT parade? We all had such a fun time. The parade wasn't too long and it wasn't too hot either. Notice how Dane has his binki in his mouth in every picture...reason being, whenever we would put him on the ground to crawl around...a rock would go in his mouth!! We then came home and had a bbq and just laughed and talked more!! Thanks for the fun time family and can't wait to do it again!!!

M.I.A.

We've been M.I.A. the last little bit and boy are we having so much fun!!

Will post more pictures when we get more time!

Lil' Fish

It seems as though we have a fish on our hands! Dane LOVES the water. We went over to a friends house the other day and played in the water and he just loved it! We also decided to take him to Seven Peaks this last weekend and that was a hit too. Glad we got season passes because we will be putting them to good use!! HAPPY SUMMER!!

Lima Bean Wreath

So I have a very talented friend and she has an awesome craft blog. She made this fun Lima Bean wreath and I'd figure I would try it out! I was a little picky with my color to paint it so I ended up using a paint brush instead of spray paint. It actually turned out very cute and I'm proud of it... considering I'm not much of the crafty person!

Fathers Day Weekend

We had such a great Fathers Day weekend! I tried to make is extra special for Brent since this was his first Fathers Day! It started with presents on Friday night...since we can't keep gifts from each other! Dane got him the game Zelda for the Wii and I got him Season 9 of Scrubs! Then on Saturday we went out for lunch at Goodwood!! Then we came home for naps and then we decided to take Dane out golfing to see how he would like it. Boy was it a hit, he LOVED every minute of it. He was so good. Then we headed to The Santaqueen for a treat! We ended the weekend with having to speak in church. Brent did such a great job. I'm so thankful for him and for such a great father that he is to our little boy! Thanks Brent for all you do for us!

Love ya!!

Go away bug...

We've had quite the week trying to fight off the flu! Dane had it on Monday then Brent got it on Wednesday and I got it on Thursday. Luckily when I got it, it wasn't as bad as Brent & Dane. Dane was feeling better on Tuesday and then on Wednesday night he started to feel yucky again! So to say the least I have cleaned the house inside and out today to get rid of this bug!

We have done lots of cuddling and rocking along with drinking lots of pedialyte like its going out of style and watching lots of cartoons!

And today we are finally starting to feel normal again...just really tired! Here is Dane showing off his "brushing his teeth" skills!
