Well, it's been over a year since our last post. Did everyone think we forgot? We kind of gave up since dealing with anything online was so slow and frusterating. We still don't have superfast internet service, but we do have a new computer and that helps a little. Here are some picts of the family. The boys are busy with baseball, scouts, youth activities and other stuff. They are the principle weeders and pickers in the garden, which is huge this year. Van is working a lot which is good for the money but hard otherwise. Rachel is doing great and eating a little more. I am still hanging in there, enjoying the kids being home from school even if it is crazy.
Here's the garden in April. Van almost doubled its size from last year. Can we keep it up???
Wyatt had a piano recital in May -- he played his favorite composer -- Chopin
Van, Ty and Rachel built this sand castle in the arena.
Ryan will be 12 this July. He's excited!
Rachel likes to eat plain sour cream. Also -- chocolate milk, honey bbq fritos, toast and quesadillas with sour cream.
Wyatt got a letterman's jacket for his birthday.
Van borrowed a neighbor's tractor to move gravel around to set up the pool. He'd love to have his own -- he loves those John Deere's.
The older boys always pick on Ryan. They're having fun while the pool fills up.
Ty and Ryan show off their muscles before they unload a bunch of wood they split for the winter.
Here's the garden now -- pretty soon we'll be canning.
Glad to hear from you guys and see some pics! Looks like you're all keeping busy, as always. :) We missed having you at the family reunion - Sophie was very sad that Rachel wasn't there for her to play with. Hopefully the next one...
