blueberries and bikes

On a not too hot Sunday we spent a great family day picking 20 lbs of blueberries. We are all stocked up for the winter ahead. It was fun watching them pick and mostly eat the blueberries-(miss Issabelle) And then we headed over to the bike park. ALL of the kids love to ride their bikes and try out the pump tracks and obstacles. Such fun!

another day at the lake

A bit overcast with some waves to make it extra fun. Always a good way to spend the time with friends. And the two little ones love being in the kayaks by themselves. They think they are hot stuff.

We spent the morning on the base with friends learning about some pretty awesome historic events an then got to check out a jet, since one of our friends dad's works on them.

summertime treats

Enjoying summer in all its glory. Two super sweets for two super sweeties.

18 month photo shooot

18 months! Time is flying by and we are loving every minute of watching this little lady grow. She is so funny and right now trying to be so very independent. But will come running back to Mama, Daddy or one of her brothers when needing a hug.

She mimics everything we say and do and wants to try all that her brothers can do. She is talking so much and understands all that we say. Most of her teeth are in. Sleep is a funny thing. Nursing is going strong. Hair is wild and crazy. Bangs her head  a lot. Has a a few tricks up her sleeve- like locking herself in the bedroom. Gave us all a scare but Daddy got her out.  Loves doggies and broccoli :) She'll rough and tumble with the boys and then be all sweet and cuddly.

Simply love and joy!!
