Fishing away!


We have been having so much fun fishing at Foster Lake! It is so nice to be so close to all these fun spots!  The boys love fishing and get so excited when a fish is on and they each get a turn reeling it in!
 
 

Sitting down for a nice little snack! ;D  What goofballs!

A quick trip!


We woke up in the wee hours of the night (2:30 am!) to head down to the Eugene airport! Puppy came along for the ride with Reid! So cute!  They both did wonderful!

Reid absolutely was enthralled with everything at the airport! Airports are super fun!

Casa Grande convention!!


We loved going down to Casa Grande, Arizona for the weekend of convention!  Reid, Lily, Will, and mommy flew down to share some special time together while Chet and Zane got to sleepover at Zoe and Kaia's! They absolutely loved it!!  This was Auntie Angie's first time to see Lily, and she was soooo excited!! So glad that we were able to come so we could share our sweet little bundle!

It was so wonderful for Reid to get lots of special time with everyone, and getting extra loved and spoiled! Reid is such a fun and cute little boy!!

Cute little Reid!

Reid and Papa are super special buddies!  (even wanting to go to Papa instead of Nana! gasp! =D) How fun for Papa and Reid to have a special relationship!

Lily was very much cuddled with during convention! She is super snugly to snuggle with! =D  Loved seeing Robyn and all the special workers!

All dressed up for Sunday! It was super hot at Casa Grande! 100 degrees on Sunday at 5 pm when we left convention! Reid and Lily did great though, and Reid loved being cooled down by Auntie Angie's water bottle being poured on his head! =D

Sweet time spent with Reta F.!

Little sweetie!

Exploring Bass Pro!


What funner place to go than to Bass Pro!  Of course daddy wanted to look around, but Reid was also thoroughly entertained by all the cool things!

Reid loved seeing all the mounts around the store!

Wow! What a big fish!

Reid tried out every 4-wheeler, hopping up on one, making a 'zroom' sound, then going onto the next one and doing it all over! It was fun to watch!

Papa and little Miss Lily!

Wildlife Safari!!

We loved heading down to Wildlife Safari with Carleen and her girls, Jessica and her girls, and our crew! We all got tickets from Groupon and had to use them up before they expired, thus the quick trip after school on Monday!  It was super fun as none of us had ever been there before!  There are animals from Africa, Asia, and America roaming around on their 600 acres!  Chet was super excited about seeing African animals because they are his absolute favorite!! We've watched videos on African animals, but they are even cooler in real life!  The park has a village area that you can walk around and see animals, and then the main part of the park you drive thru in your car to see the animals! It was a fun day together, and as always so fun to be with special friends.  =)

Driving around...


Lily got to snuggle with Jessica all through the park  =)


A giraffe and a hippo.  The other giraffe they have at the park got stuck in the pond!  We had to wait an hour to drive through the park as they got it unstuck!

We were so excited to see tons of African animals!  Chet looooves African animals so it was extra special!  We saw zebras, rhinos, wildebeests, oryx, and gemsbok on this hillside!


And we saw Chet's favorite animal!  A cheetah!!  We also saw three cute little cheetah cubs in a different area!

Cute little kiddos!


Reid and Lily! Can you tell what I was doing to try to make Reid smile? =D

Zane and Reid have been having fun playing 'meeting' together lately!  They both grab their hymnbooks, and either drive or walk to meeting (the couch) and sing Tell Me The Story of Jesus, and then Zane gives his testimony.  So Sweet!

Little Miss Lily is getting so strong lifting her head up! Such a sweetie!! Already 1 month old!
