harvesting drift wood...

we have been getting our garden together and we are building a few "trellis" like structures to grow things vertically. The other day after mike got home i suggested we pack a picnic dinner and go out to the river and get some drift wood. it was a georgous day and finley had not gone to the river in a long time. win/win! we discovered that strollers are great for pilfering drift wood!!! and maggie is great for it too!

Bethany's soccer game

Bethany had her first game of the season last night. Owen loved to watch all the kids running around! Bethany scored a goal too! I am not sure the final score and I am not sure they were even keeping track. Bethany didn't know at the end. :)
He also go to see his big sis that he never gets to see. Of course I snuck a picture! This is Kaylie for those of you who do not know. She is 17. (the reason why we don't get to see her much!)
This little girl is the cutest. (the ref isn't bad either!)

Owen is sleeping on his tummy

I used to think that when babies played with their toes it was the cutest thing ever. I think that has shifted! I think it is now when babies sleep on their tummies and their bottoms are sticking up in the air. I had to attack with my camera the other night! How stinkin' cute is this?!

new addition to the family

NO I AM NOT PREGNANT AGAIN!!! We got new baby chicks! aren't they cuties?!
