A day at the museum

I took the boys to the science museum to see the dinosaurs. They love dinosaurs now.

Stephen could hardly contain himself! Jaxon just kept pointing and roaring

Then they found this pirate to torment. Luckily he was fake. Or just a really good actor.

The highlight of the day was when one of the guys that worked at the museum let Stephen hold this fossilized real dino poop.

He's still talking about it!

Family Art Night

We went to Family Art night at the boys school.
This is Stephen's "art" face. See, more "art" face

I think Dave's the only one that made anything

Am I the only one that smiles for a picture anymore?

Don't we look creative?!

Dewberry Farm

It was time for our annual trip to Dewberry Farm. The boys had a great time, and it was a gorgeous day! They went down this huge slide made out of rollers.

Weeee

Jaxon looks so happy!

We jumped on these big "pillow cases". Not the most graceful moment I've ever had. Stephen and Jaxon loved it though.

We have no need for seats!

Jaxon loves these bridges

Stuff to play on everywhere!!

Stephen really loved this swivel bike, he's really good at it!

We went to the barn and saw lots of animals.

Baby chickens were by far their favorite thing.

Jaxon loved "goosing" the chickens.

Poke poke

This is my favorite picture. The guys got their first carmel apples and loved them. I love the kids face next to Jaxon! Needless to say his mom ended up getting him one too.

Happy guys!

What a great day at Dewberry Farm!

Friday Movie Night

Friday nights we have movie night. Now that Jaxon is a little older we've started blowing up this air matress the boys LOVE it! You can see Phoebe and Paddy are ready to get in on the action too! Getting cozy

Ready to start the movie!

Jaxon didn't make it too far into the movie and Stevie and Paddy crashed out early too!

A day at the orchard

We went to an orchard, when we got there Jaxon climbed in the wagon and Stephen took off. It's almost like they've done this before?

It was a really beautiful day, the boys loved running around the orchard!

We picked Asian persimmons. I have NO clue what I'll make with them, but we had fun picking them.

Then Jaxon ran off and found a shed filled with his favorite thing! Balls!

DarthStevie. This was totally random and hilarious. Stephen was so excited to find this helmet!

They also roughed up this log cabin. Stephen fixed the door...we can't go anywhere!

A park!

And a giant tire swing!!

Are all orchards like this?

There was also a little swing for Jaxon. He would not put the ball down.

Remember these?!

First Day of School!

I got these awesome pics of the boys the morning of their first day of school! They were so excited!

Brotherly love! (or maybe Stephen was squeezing too hard?)

Find your class day!

Last week we had find your room day at the kids new school. Stephen is in preschool and Jaxy started in mothers day out.
I tried to get a picture of them going in but Jaxy found this really interesting brick on the ground... Oh well...

Jaxon seemed to really like his class

he jumped right in taking all of the other kids toys!

he wasted no time becoming the teachers pet

Stephen was really excited his class had a calculator

and a mailbox!

Then we did what all kids do after school. We played on a tractor!

Perks of coming to horse shows with mom

I hope he won't think we'll drive a tractor every day after school!

if he could just reach the pedals we'd all be in trouble!
