Our summer in pictures

Wow, it really has been a while since I posted,  but I have a valid excuse.   Our computer is dead...lightning got it.   We have had a crazy and fun summer so far.   VBS, County fair, July 4th tractor pull, Church camp and much more.    I am just going to post so pics of all fun...Enjoy!

A perfect summer sky.
Sorry about the crazy layout, but I am doing this from my ipad and I have know idea how to get my post the way I want them.     Sure hope the rest of you are having a great summer.  We go on vacation next week and then I have to get everything ready to start teaching Piper Kindergarten.   :)

Summer is here!

Well summer has arrived in Iowa and we are loving it.   I have gotten back on my cleaning schedule,  so mornings are cleaning and laundry...and afternoons are for crafts, naps and playing outside.    We are trying to make this summer very fun.
I found a recipe for Puff paint on Pinterest,   Equal amounts if Elmer's Glue and shaving cream and a few drops of food coloring.   Stir until you get stiff peaks and them paint to your hearts content.   Takes awhile to dry,   but so much fun.
Mr. Blake in need of a haircut.
He is not a baby anymore...he is now his Daddy's mini me.
Summer evenings are great for family walks down the dirt road and taking time to pick the clover.
It is also the time for kite flying.       Hope you all are having a great start to your summer,   Stay safe.

Spring has sprung...

 My nephew came for a visit, so of course we had to take some pictures of these cousins together.
 Two five year old, they are only four months apart.
 Here is Miss Piper on Easter...she is getting too big.

And of course the duo...double trouble, double fun, double the love.

Life is moving on!

Piper had some dental work done at the hospital last week,  she loved being entertained by the clown before had.    Kudos to the hospital for this..it was great.
My three loves are growing so fast.
We are loving that spring is slowly making its way to the Midwest.
These two love laundry baskets.
