MAJOR pic update

ok, if anyone who like to give me a blog tutorial.......all my pics are always backwards and on TOP of what i write! good grief.....but you get the point right?
this is the new garage.....finishing step:) the boys working away (steve, Tyler, Nate)
The boys watching daddy mow the lawn.

Jared doing his two favorite things: standing and playing by the bath tub!




Tim has decided to be nice to his brother......most of the time:)



play hard.....sleep harder...(but he obviously didn't want to take a nap, which is why he ended up there!)











ok....this is partly bragging my child up and partly pure fear as a mother of a climber.....he was just 6 months when he did this! (next 3 pics ....start at 3 and move up, backwards sorry!)

























this puppy momentaritly melted my heart.....but no worries he's not a permenant member of the family!











terrible coloring, but still.....my family:)







































feeding birds with daddy at the zoo:)





As we all know: I just am not very good at updating. So, I will try to let you in on our summer with one big blog.

Honestly I am not quite sure where summer has gone. We have done lots of fun stuff though! We have been to the zoo at least 5 times! The boys love it. (and thanks to grandma, it's a cheap way to get out of the house!)

We have spent some time with my cousins at the lake in June and then a couple times at my Aunt Esther's pool. That was great! It was especially wonderful not being the only person with kids, we can commiserate a little. (that's a new concept for me....my friends are still working on adding babies to their families)

THis month it seems we've spent plenty of time in Grandma's pool too! (if there really was reincarnation I think Tim would come back a fish, although his first choice would be a lion....he roars at anyone and everyone, including the lady behind us in the checkout aisle at meijer).

We've also been at Grandma Boone's helping grandpa and daddy and some other guys put a new garage on their house!! lots of fun....lots of mess!!!

The next couple weeks are going to be packed with fun too. This weekend we'll be going camping in Ludington with a girlfriend and her family!:) they are adopting us for a few days....it's been a LONG time since I have camped up there, should be lots of fun!
The NEXT weekend Steve and I and two other couples are piling in the minivan and heading to Cedar Point to celebrate our anniversaries! We decided to go a little fancier for the occasion and are staying in one of the cabins on the lake, Rebekah is even bringing cupcakes for the celebration!:) Can't believe it's been 5 years already! that sure went fast!

ANYWAY.....here are some new pictures. In case you've forgotten what we looked like:)
