William is 2

Our little  guy turned 2 and we couldn't love him any more! He is so delightful in every way and we can't get enough of him! He loves cars and trucks and thinks he can do everything Justus can. He talks so much and says so many funny things.."I don't yike it and top it!" He doesn't like moths or flying bugs and hates hairy or fluffy things that move in the air.It's pretty funny to watch! He wants to say the prayer and loves when dad gets home. He is too smart for his own good. It's hard to trick him. We all love him to pieces!

Heritage Days

We enjoyed the parade this year!

Isabelle is 11

It's hard to think that next year she will be in young womens. Isabelle is so much fun! She has a contagious laugh and you can't help but join in. She is so good with her younger siblings! She will make such a good mom some day! She loves to cook and is becoming quite good at it. She loves to create things and still loves to play house, barbies and little girlie things, but is growing up and wants to do big girl things too. I want to to be little as long as possible! She has lots of friends and loves school. We sure do love her!!

Her cake turned out pretty cute!

Cuteness

I can't even say how cute he is! He just is!!

Pallet fences. Vern built these for our goats and dogs.

Deer

We have had 3 deer hanging around our yard. Gracie caught 2 of them in a picture.

Camping

We love camping so much! I wish we could do it more often, but we enjoy it when we do go.

Gracie had fun playing with my camera. She got some fun pictures!

Daniel loves to chop wood and make all sorts of creations with it. He chopped and used a saw  the whole time. He loved every minute of it. He makes us all laugh and has such a good heart.

We have enjoyed having grandma here! She stayed longer than we thought she would and we are not ready to have her leave. We have all missed her so much! Now if Papa was here..

We went on a walk and picked some yarrow.

Dutch oven food is the best!!

These 2 were trying to get out of the picture..

My Gracie turned 17 this year...I still can't believe that she is that old! I am so glad that I have 2 more years left before she leaves me, which I am not looking forward to at all..but we don't need to worry about that yet thank goodness! Gracie is such a good kind person! She is always striving to do whats right and is such a good example. She is going to be a cheerleader again this year, which she is looking forward to. She is an amazing artist and gets better an better all the time. I love spending time with her and seeing what a good friend she is. She has so many talents and is a great help to me.  She really is beautiful on the inside and out! Ps.. her cake turned out lame, so we are going to do another one soon!

It was Isabelle's birthday the next day and she wanted to open presents and wait for her cake.

I got pretty lucky in the husband department! He is my best friend a good dad and for sure a 10!!I love him!!💗
