First Day of Kindergarden

New shoes and a New backpack!

I love see all the new stuff!

Waiting for Cayden at the bus stop!

Blake's 1st day of preschool!  I think they like there shoes!

As you can see he loved his 1st day of school!  Long day for mommy but seeing that smile at the end of the day I know he'll be ok!

Sorting out all the supplies on the first day of school!

Reading area!

Cayden and his Kindergarden teacher Mrs. Webb!

And here's Andrew being mom!

House Boating!

Justin's Aunt and Uncle have this great house boat on the St. Croix and we have been lucky to be invited to spend the day on it for the past couple of summers.   Our boys absolutely love this and spend the next week asking to go back out on it!  So Thank you Barb and Tom for such great memories are boys make each year we truly love being invited!

This year they discovered jumping off the top deck!

This is my favorite part of the day!  Laying in the hammock taking a nap!

4 Wheeling

 My boys absolutely love going to Great-Grandma's house!  The 4 -wheeling with Grandpa is all they talk about for days and if they don't get GG's homemade mac n cheese it's not complete! 

If we could visit them every week we would!  Thanks for spoiling the boys grandma and grandpa!

Coke photoshoot with the boys

 Last summer I did a Coke themed photo shoot with the boys.  I was just wanting to try something a little different last summer then my normal.  The boys had a ton of fun especially since they got to have a coke!!  But taking pictures of your own kids is always a lot harder then taking pictures of other peoples kids.  But we still had a good time even though they were more into drinking the pop then having me take there pictures!

 And this my friends is how it usually goes when taking pictures of my kids!!  There always running around in circles!!  aagghh!!

August 2011

 The boys trying out the new Kayak that Cayden got for his birthday!

 The boys have figured out lots of ways to explore with it as well! 

 Does Justin really have a book in his hand?  First book that he's finished since we've been married!!  I'm so so Proud of you honey!

 Testing out the new wakeboard and both boys have succeed on getting up and around the lake on the boom!  Now to get around the lake behind the boat.

 Andrew definitely knows how to hold his own!

 And Mister stud here has too make sure he can do it one handed!!

Boundry Waters

Justin took the boys to the boundary waters last summer and they loved it.  Sound like there was lots of swimming, fishing, eating, and mosquitoes.    And I think Jamie almost burned down a tent! 

Blake was so proud of his fish that he caught!  It was the first fish he's ever caughten that he was able to eat!
