Hard Worker

This last weekend was spent not only enjoying all the Easter festivities, but also re-doing the landscaping in our back yard. It's quiet small so it really doesn't take much to move things around. We have a garden, but it's running out of room, so we decided that we would extend it to run along the entire back fence using some fence blocks that we got for FREE. Cole and I being the mean parents that we are told the kids that they had to help and be outside with us the whole time. HA HA! Needles to say Lincoln was the only one that went to work willingly and stayed outside the entire 3 hours. He was so happy following his dad around and using the shovel. He truly is our little helper. Whenever I need anything done Lincoln is the first to run to my aide. This little guy steals my heart!

Fun in the Desert!

Seeing that this is most likely the last nice weekend before summer we thought that we'd take advantage and have some family FUN!

Cole's parents and nephews met us out by Florence so that Cole could play with his new toy and actually see what it could do. He's had it for about a month now and keeps telling me that just driving it around the neighborhood is NO fun. So even though it was quite windy out yesterday I decided that it was time to let the boy out to play and I think both him and the kids loved every second of it. We really enjoy being able to get out of the house and let the kids run wild for some time. The shreeks of excitment are enough reward for the efforts put into making it happen!

Lincoln and Mason cruising in the jeep!


Cole even let Lynden drive for awhile. She was laughing and squealing the entire time. You could hear her over the engine.


Of course all the kids had to take a ride with Grandpa! Thanks for making it SO fun!


Addison our little monkey.


Hayden has to be the COOLEST kid I know!
