Look who's getting chubby!

6 weeks old and 11 pounds!

I was soooo jealous of Vance's eyelashes that I had to get a picture for posterity!

Will's 8th Birthday

The "Sheridan Street Lemonade Stand"

The boys opened a lemonade stand and they had lots of customers! Even the police stopped to get some and gave the boys some police sticker badges (they are wearing them in one picture if you look closely). But the best part was that after every customer Vance would come up and press his nose to the window, knock until I looked over, then would give me the "thumbs up" signal. It was too funny!

Sorry for not posting in a while, we have been on vacation! First we went to Pocatello, Idaho, where Ben and Will were at a wrestling camp...that is where all the swimming pool pictures came from. Then we drove on to Yellowstone for a few days, which is where both slide shows came from. We ended up taking so many photos that I was forced to do 2 slide shows so I wouldn't have to choose between my favorite pics! The baseball pics are old, I just forgot to put them up last month. Enjoy!

We made a stop at Yellowstone Bear World just outside of Rexburg, Idaho. The boys had a blast! Not only did they get to see lots of wildlife, but there were children's rides, (including a roller coaster which was their favorite) and a petting zoo!

The stages of Vance's cannon ball!

We have found that as we have gotten older we appreciate the beauty of nature more and more. We found ourselves taking pictures of landscape as much as the children, especially at Yellowstone. It is truely a marvelous place. We were in constant awe of what nature can do! So...if you log onto our blog only to see pictures of the boys, you may want to skip this next slide show. But I see blogging sort of as scrap-booking or journaling, so I couldn't help putting these beautiful pictures on here.
