Happy First Birthday Kiera!!

We got to celebrate Kiera's first birthday with her! It was so much fun, and was so fun to watch her enjoy her cake! I think she did like the ice cream cake (it was a catepillar and turned out so cute! ) because after she was done with her cake, she started licking the tray to the highchair! =) Yummm, yumm!!




We also so enjoyed on Sunday going to Craig & Shereen's for dinner! The kids LOVED playing with each other, and what better place to play than inside the toy box! =)


Daddy and Chet! Cheese!!

Memorial Day weekend!

Doug, Kylee and Kiera came to spend Memorial Day weekend with us! We loved it!!! Chet and Kiera fell in love with each other! Kiera would crawl all over after Chet, and Chet would want Kiera to go where ever he was going! =) Doug so nicely helped Will clear and gravel a pad for Will's new shop! All the action was so exciting to Chet, and to daddy (he is so excited for his new shop!) and I am so excited for him! (happy that he is so happy!) It was such a fun weekend!
Kylee and Kiera!
Chet LOVED watching all the excitement! He was thoroughly entertained the whole day just being outside and watching Doug work on the dozer!


Clearing away land for the shop pad...


Doug gave Chet a ride on the dozer, and he LOVED it!!

Yeah!! Chet loved climbing to the top of the gravel pile..!



Laying gravel...

And Chet LOVES Zoe! Big hugs for her!


I love this picture!!! Chet and Zoe were standing side by side, and Chet just put his arm around her! So sweet!!!!!!!! =) It is so sweet to see how much they love each other!

It is absolutely beautiful where Ryan & Jessica are living at Scott & Lisa's!



So picturesque!

Playing in the Barn!

Chet spied daddy's old bikes in the barn when we were playing outside! He loves to sit on them and "ride!" And he got up all by himself!!

Bringing down the shop!

Uncle B and Nicki came to stay with us for the weekend, and it was so much fun!! Chet loved all the extra attention! He loved reading books with Nicki...one of his favorite things to do, and loved playing with Uncle B who has the same energy level as Chet I think! ;) We also tore the shop down in preparation to make a nice new shop for Will! How exciting! It was the perfect demolition! Chet especially liked the "crash!" and "boom!" of the whole experience when bringing the shop down!

We've Added to our Family!!

We have sheep now!! These are called Barbados blackbelly sheep, and they are the coolest!! I could watch them for hours! Of course, Will likes them especially for their curled horns the rams are known for! They are wild by nature, but if you work with them, they will come to you and even eat out of your hand! Yesterday, they came within 5 feet of me! I am so close and it is so exciting! Chet, daddy, and mommy absolutely love having sheep! It's so fun to add to our little flock! Now all we need is baby! =)!!
