May

When we got back from our Mother's Day trip we came back to reality. Our washer had broken right before we left and this time for good so we had to make the decision to get a brand new or buy one used. Thankfully Kyle's cousin had an extra washer and dryer from moving into his new house so he sold the set to us! 
Getting our new set installed!


Kyle's parents stopped by one day to show Kyle's grandpa all the progress we have made on our backyard and house. I had to take advantage of the moment and get all four generations of men in a photo!
What most days look like during our summer....lots of water and sunshine

Caught Jamin mid-change. He likes to tan in the buff...jk

My cute little helper at 'work'. Kyle and I, along with his cousin Ryan's family have been cleaning TRAX for extra income. It's perfect for us because it's only a couple hours per week and I can bring the boys if I need to. With pregnancy complications I have not been cleaning for the past month though. 
 SURPRISE!!!!! I surprised Kyle with his beloved canoe that he's been wanting for the past couple years. I used Christmas and birthday money from my parents, credit card points, free shipping and $100 of sale to buy this beauty! The boys couldn't wait to get in it!
 Planting my garden the week before Mother's Day. Thankfully it survived the frost and snow storm that came on Mother's day.

 Silly and sweet moment with the boys sharing a sleeping bag
 Kyle had to work a ton at the beginning of May. His dad/boss was out of town for two weeks so Kyle took over to help. There would be many days that the boys didn't get to see him because he would leave at 4 in the morning and come back at 9 or 10 at night. He would eat dinner, say goodnight to the boys if they were still awake and then go back to working on his computer until about midnight or 1. It was a rough couple weeks for all of us because of how hard my pregnancies are....at this time in my pregnancy I'm still nauseous, exhausted and my pubic symphasis is hurting really bad.  Thankfully we have amazing neighbors and friends that brought meals and stayed to hang out or play with the boys.
We made a 'daddy' to help us get through the couple weeks. The boys thought it was hilarious and would feed him and make jokes with him lol. 
 Some randoms from my phone from Mother's day weekend....


Letting Jamin drive to get gas

After dropping off the RV and getting back into Kyle's truck. They were both pretty tired. 

My crazy and amazing sleeper
 Silly moments in May.




Landin sleeping away on Kyle one afternoon. lol He sleeps just like Kyle 
 Going to visit daddy at work one day. The boys like to look official!

 Helping daddy load some wood into the car at HomeDepot.

Little helpers!
 Kyle and I had a Date night in May. My parents watched the boys for the night and Kyle and I went out to dinner and shopping. We went to Tucanos. Also known as Kyle new favorite place to eat because of all the meat. He had 3 rounds...plus buffet. He was a happy man!

I have a video of this moment but decided not to share it. I wanted to capture Kyle snoring lol
 Another summer day!
 We are finishing out basement! I had to take a picture of all the supplies getting delivered. We had to haul this back to our basement that day. Kyle was working late and I knew I could only handle so many trips up and down. Thankfully our neighbor Jayden was willing to help and everything was put away in about 4 hours.
 Watching the Air Force Graduation Thunder Birds show! The boys love jets! We met the girls from our small group at Bass Pro Shop to get a great view!

 Summer days at the pool!
 Getting creative with a cardboard box.
The boys helped me make a RV!

Watching our nephew Logan for the night while his two big sisters danced in their recital
 My silly Landin! I love him so much :)

Wonderful little company!

Yesterday I had the honor to watch Nathan. Nathan's parents are Matt and Sonya, friends from our small group at church. We had a blast all afternoon. Both the boys didn't take naps so I thought it was going to be a rough afternoon but I think they got energy from one another. I was nervous for dinner time too but they both did great. Both ate like champs...even ate their vegetables!  I put these two to work right away lol Busy building something great! We went outside for a bit. It was hard to keep these two together in the front so we headed out back! Nathan loved exploring! Showing me a sweet rock that he found! Jamin exploring too! Wondering where he should go next. There are so many things to see in our backyard  The boys looking at the rocks and weeds lol Nathan showing Jamin the treasure (weed) that he found! We played on the swings for a while too. One would be in this swing while I held the other in the other swing! (Sorry my...

4/20-4/24

I couldn't really think of a title for this post so I decided to just states the dates lol. Last week Jamin and I went to Focus on the Family with our friends Sonya and Nathan. I just got done reading Bringing Up Boys which was written by the Founder of Focus on the Family, Dr. James Dobson. Although Focus on the Family is a place I would hear about while growing up, I really didn't know a lot about it. My friend Sonya went to their Institute and so our trip planning began to go visit it!  Group picture after taking the tour  We can never get a great shot of the boys lol These were taken in their really awesome play area! Love this picture! Stroller parking!!! A smile that makes my heart melt everytime! Jamin and Nathan Mommy was way too big for this little boat lol Silly faces  We also went to the zoo with Sonya and Nathan last week. Here are a few pictures! We even go the moose in the picture! Jamin got scared of the big hippo :( ...

Road Trip Part 5

Monday morning rolled around and we decided to make our way from Bozeman down to the West Yellowstone Entrance. The drive was amazingly gorgeous!  Just driving in Harvey!  We made it to West Yellowstone but were turned away from two different RV parks because of the amount of kids we had with us. This was the first time I have ever felt looked down upon and discriminated against. I literally had one man ripped a piece of paper out of my hands because he didn't even want to consider letting that many people stay in his park. I explained to him that they are all young and well behaved kids but apparently he has had way too many bad experiences with kids. We didn't let it get us down though. We finally found one that didn't have any concerns letting 4 adults come in with 5 kiddos. The place was actually brand new and the closest RV park to the west Yellowstone entrance so we really lucked out!!! After we got checked in we decided to go into the park ...
