June, in a snap.

We did a lot in June to keep ourselves busy!

We went to the Boise Zoo! Rode the rides!

Hayden Graduated from Preschool! He loved every minute of going to preschool and is uber excited to be able to attend Kindergarten in the Fall!

Hayden with his teacher, Mrs. Brooks!

We worked on some projects at home:

Ben working on his project car! Cleaning PARTS! FUN, FUN, FUN. and I acquired some awesome deals at yard sales (notice one piece of furniture in backround).

Ady and Hayden built some pretty spectacular towers !

We also had the opportunity to go camping with some friends. We had fun, even though it rained 89% of the time!

Hayden building towers with the fire wood!

Cute Family! I believe Ady and Hayden broke the record this weekend for the most junk food eaten....EVER!

Sitting around the campfire!

Ady is so proud of her artwork!

On the one and only summer day in June! We managed to squeak in a few minutes of slipnslide time!

Daddy being silly!

Ben's Mom and Step dad, Jack, came to town during the free fishing weekend, and motorcycle rally. Saturday morning we headed out fishing. It was a good day of fishing, as Hayden won the kids contest, for 3 different things. I think they are for Biggest Trout, Biggest Blue Gill, and Longest Trout! He got to pick out 3 different prizes/

Next, we headed downtown to take a look at all of the motorcycles!

Of course we had to stop and get charlies ice cream!

Ady fell asleep on Ben's Shoulders! I think we wore her out!

Just a few of many motorcycles!

Ben and I!

May: came and went.

May was a busy month. It flew by in the wink of an eye. At the beginning of May, we took an unexpected weekend getaway to Washington. We went to the TRI-CITIES, stayed in a hotel with a pool, went to an awesome playground, and did tons of shopping!
Here are the kids ready for the day! Family shoot first!

We went to a great park they had there, i believe it was called discovery cove, or dream land... but I can't remember. It was a huge wooden park, with tons and tons of toys. We didn't stay long because the weather did not cooperate.

Ady's favorite thing to do is swing.

Hayden enjoyed all aspects of the park.

Ady and Daddy having fuN!

On our drive home, notice the nasty weather, there was the end of a rainbow right in front of us. I was expecting my share of gold, but no, not this time.

We also managed to make it to Boise in May.

Here is Warren, my nephew, and I, on his blessing day! Isn't he adorable?

Dana, Britnae, and Warren... Too cute.

While in Boise, we had to take the kids to their favorite spot, MCDONALDS!

Hayden has been attending CARAVAN at a local church, and he graduated from Benson Buddies. He was pretty proud!

All of the Benson Buddies!

APRIL in a flash

APRIL...where did you go?

Our little man turned the Big 5 on April 16th. We had quite the party for him at our home. Good thing it was a nice day out, or else we would have been in trouble with all the people that attended.

We had a Ben 10 bash and I think Hayden really loved it. Here are a few pictures!After the party died down, we headed to the lake, which is only a 20 minute drive... We decided to have a family camp fire.But before the fire, we hiked down to the beautiful lake.My Mom and Dad! What a great picture!My mom with some of her grandkids!We tried a little fishing, but had no such luck. Oh well!Dana and Paisley!Ady and Grandma!Ben and his Dad!Dana and her two youngest! Aren't they cute!
