Just hanging out ... on the only furniture in the living room that they're "allowed" to eat on :)
Making Mommy's cherry cheesecake birthday cake - yummy!
Happy Birthday Mommy ... another great celebration!
My wish came true! ;)
One of my birthday gifts ...
... the Ninja - woohoo!
Everyone enjoying the Fancy Nancy drink concoction Madison made - it was deeeeelicious!
Honest Abe here ... I mean Maddie!
"Come to Aidan's yard sale ... even though its really cold ... come to Aidan's yard sale!" That's what Aidan and Maddie yelled for quite some time. His merchandise were original Aidan drawings that he has in the old Ninja box because it was so windy he couldn't have them on display like he wanted. After quite awhile of no one showing up Aidan finally let us buy some of his masterpieces! Some great artwork in there!
Mrs. Potato Head!
Best buds ... usually!
One night I couldn't find Hobbs when I was heading to bed and look where I found him ... with a matching pink blanket and all ... so cute! He was sound asleep until I took the picture :)
Gotta start them young!
She's definitely a hugger! Sisterly love!
Caleb was for a short time fascinated by how the leaves looked under our outdoor table ... so curious!
Love our Hobbsy!
A chalk masterpiece!
Giddy-up! Our horse Maddie and cowboy Aidan ... ride em' cowboy :)
More hugs! Love it!
Part of the gang hanging out ... Madison, Jenna, Aidan and Caleb (not ours)!
One of my favorites!
Makayla would just be tickled pink if I would let her sleep in a bed and not her crib ... no way not going to happen any time soon! She's lucky she gets to lay there while I sing a song but that's where I draw the line!
Our first backyard campfire - so fun! Poor Caleb passed out and missed it all but we'll have a summer full of them this year so no biggie! Here we are eating marshmellows but we roasted hot dogs too!
Big bite!
How close to the fire daddy? A quick lesson when they catch on fire - ha ha!
Two huge birds that have been hanging out in our tree - just happen to catch them together.
Uncle Chuck and Aunt Kelly's house - fun, fun, fun!!! They were so nice to let us do so much and the food was terrific too! We all got a gun lesson from the expert Uncle Chuck and we all got to shoot a .22 too! The kids got to shoot his bow and arrow, we got to have a four wheeler ride or two or three. We got to get up close to his cows, the kids got to shoot off some clay disks etc. etc. etc. Such a great day! And the kids (and I) still have our bullet casing as a souvenir :). Thank you Uncle Chuck and Aunt Kelly ... we will be talking about this day for a long time!
Uncle Chuck and Pres
Poor Caleb had fallen asleep on the ride over and missed most of this afternoon too - poor guy!
Our lesson!
Love this one ... lining it all up :)
Uncle Chuck and Spencer
Uncle Chuck and Aidan
Uncle Chuck and Maddie
It was so much more fun than I thought it would be! I could hang out in his backyard for quite awhile :)
The Cranford Men - should have magnified this first - oops!
Hanging out hoping the horses would show back up ... a little scared off from our shooting!
Aidan and Spencer playing a little soccer.
