Harvest 2009

Last weekend, we went home to help with wheat harvest. We were only there for a short time, so I didn't get to take too many pictures, but I did get a few priceless ones. It's always nice to go home, especially around harvest time. It brings back so many great memories, which I am thrilled I get to share with my husband & kids.

Brooklyn & Braxton in the daisies!! LOVE IT!!

I was in the combine with dad when I took this one...I didn't get as close as I wanted, but I thought it was good.

Kory/Braxton, Arica/Brooklyn, Mom, Patrick/Brody

Braxton & Brody with Grandpa. Braxton only lasted in the combine for about 5-10minutes before he got too wiggley!! He is a busy busy boy!!


Snack time at the field with Grandma & GG

Sprinkler fun before nap!!

Braxton got his 1st summer buzz cut by Aunt Trudy. So cute!!

It's pool time....

Today we got our little pool out, since it was sooo hot outside. The kids had a blast & mommy got some rays too!! Brooklyn started swimming lessons this week & is doing very well...she is our little fish and surprise surprise, Braxton has NO fear of the water either.

Thought this pic was too cute not to share!!

Summer Fun!!!

Hope you are all having a great summer!!!!
