Crane

7/7/12

Jeff was lucky enough to go watch the crane lift rafters at Great Uncle Dave's shop.



He was mad when we got there, because he forgot his tools at home. He enjoyed being up on the ladder so he could be closer to Dad.

Friday Night

7/6/12

We went to Kristi, Dylan, Landon, & Kody's Friday night. 

Talking to Kody. 

Finally it got cooler (it dropped 20 degrees!) and the boys played some baseball.

4th of July

Jeff was up bright and early wanted to ride his 4-wheeler.


 Look how big these ducks have gotten.

We headed to Flandaru with Aunt Rachelle, Aunt Amanda, Sarah and Avery. 
Sarah brought this for Jeff to use, until the lifeguard said it out had to go out.

Avery enjoyed her first swim.

 Snuggling with Avery.

Trying keep Jeff indoors is hard in this heat, so we played a game of Candy Land.

Surprise

Jeff got a very nice surprise the other night...a 4-Wheeler!
 It was shipped, so there was some assembling.

Practicing, notice Diesel had to get in the action too!

WI Dells

We went to Wisconsin Dells this past weekend and stayed at the Wilderness. It was a BLAST! I am truly amazed at how much Jeff loved it. Scott and I had so much fun with him. On Friday when we got there he could not wait to jump in. It was great they allow life jackets and he could jump in where ever he pleased. He went on every slide that they would let him go on and didn't quite understand why he couldn't go alone or on some of the bigger ones. I wish I could have had my camera with at every moment or a tape recorder of the laughs and screams as we went down the slides on tubes. It was priceless!

 So excited...he did wonderful in the car, but poor Abby got her ear talked off!

 Emily turned 2 while we were there.


Scott and I taking the kids to the dry park.


 Emily really liked Scott!

 I bet Jeff and Katelyn went down this slide 50-75 times!
 My arms are sore from carrying this tube up about 200 stairs time after time!

 This was so cute, Jeff would go first and then wait for Scott (or I) to come down after and "high-five". The lifeguards would just laugh!

 We went zip lining too. It was a blast (after my nerves settled!). Jeff was sad because he couldn't go! The first group was Doug, Abby, Paulette, I and Scott.

 Just in the three days we were there I am amazed on how much Jeff's swimming skills improved!
