My Love

For someone who dislikes having their picture take, My Love (Craig) always has such a devious smirk on his face. That is his "up to no good" look. But man, I do love him, smirk an all!

A ranchers work is never done

"I'm gonna help!"

"See I can do it."

"You missed a spot dad!"

Wyatt and Craig painting our "wood" barn.

When we put in our wood boiler, we recycled some old slab barn wood for the exterior. Craig decided it need a coat of paint. So it matched the rest of the "ranch."

Man, there's nothing like watching a cowboy work.

um,um, um.

PS. Craig will probably kill me because I posted these. But I think they are great!! Love you babe!

Great Grandma

We were so blessed to have Great Grandma Betty Emily and Aunt Linda come up to Michigan for a visit. They were here for about a week. It was so great to be able to spend some time and visit. With them living in Missouri, we are not able to see them often.

P.S. Sadly we lost Aunt Linda about 10 days after this picture was taken. It made out time with her mean so much more to all of us. We love and miss you Aunt Linda. But you have come home to the Lord, now. May you find peace in his arms.

Wyatt, Connor, Spencer, and Keaton

These were taken in July 2009 when we were lucky enough to spend some time together while Grandma Emily and Aunt Linda were here from Missouri.

We all enjoyed a few days of wonderful weather and family time.

Playhouse

WHEEEEEE!!!!!

Craig and I built this tree house for Wyatt a couple summers ago. He has so mush fun in it, in all seasons. He has mananged to teach the Gus, the dog, to climb the ladder. So that Gus can play in the the playhouse too. When PaPa Dan comes up, his shoulders usually give out before Wyatt has had enough playing on the swings. The sandbox and sand toys can usually be found scattered from one end of the yard to the other. He just LOVES it!

Have fun buddy!!

Horsein' Around

Looking to see if mom is watching.

"Here, I have a little snack for you."

Wyatt sure enjoy Cimm when she comes up to the fence, to check him out.

Some day I'm sure they will be buddies.
