Flowers from my honey!

These are the beautiful flowers from my husband for our anniversary.

The first ride!

The new Go-peds

Haven't posted in awhile!

I am not going to worry about the dates, I am just going to post the pictures so that I can get going on here again!

Fishing has been a huge part of our lives lately, Eric has the net in case they catch the big one! They are off to the pond we discovered right in our neighborhood!

Making awesome domino creations

Eric is really into making these very cool domino creations. We went to buy more dominos so that he could make them longer. We love watching them all fall down.

Sailing in the creek

We got a ton of rain today, and Eric wanted to make a raft to sail it in the creek near our house.

Mama bird feeding her babes

We have had so much fun watching this mama bird feed her babes all day long. They are so sweet to watch. This has been the greatest bird house. Every year we have birds in it, and it is right outside our window for great viewing. I could watch all day long!

Sweetie Pie

Such a sweetie. We just love our little Casper!

Golfing with my boys

We went golfing today. Actually, Sam golfed and Eric drove the cart. I got to ride along in the cart and have a great time!

More beautiful birds

These beautiful birds were right outside our window. You have to look closely to see the second one.

Cool ride

Tim traded cars with a friend today so that he could take a ride in the convertible. Fun fun!

Some dog training

We have been trying to work with Owen so that he isn't quite so excitable! We are doing some clicker training and we also bought some agility equipment. We shall see what happens!

Sledding in summer? Oh yeah!

Who says you can't go sledding in the summer? Eric set up pillows at the bottom of the basement steps, got out the sled, and away he went! Eric and Sam have loved doing this for years now! They did talk me into trying it, and they thought it was hilarious to hear me scream!

Sam's Mac Mini

Sam has been wanting a Mac for awhile. He saved up enough to get the Mini. I see more Mac's in our future! It was exciting to take him to go pick it up.

Fun at Beech Bend Amusement park with friends

We met Sarah, Spencer, and Annette at the Unschooling Waterpark conference this past year. They live in Indiana, so we drove to meet them to spend the day at Beech Bend Amusement/Waterpark in Kentucky. Eric is not "amused" with amusement parks, so it was Sam and I that went.

in a commercial

Sam was in a commercial today, and his job was to be a bully. It was a tire commercial. He was in many of the scenes, so even though it was a long day, he got to move around alot.

The masked motorcycle rider

Eric and his friend Connor dressed up and rode through the neighborhood on pocketbike and goped. Eric's costume was complete with wings!

kitty in the bag

Casper decided that one way to make sure he doesn't get left behind again is to just hang out in the bag. He forgot to put on his camo outfit! He brings us so much joy everyday! He is the sweetest little kitty I have ever met!

Re-reading Harry Potter

It was so nice outside that Sam decided to sit out there and read Harry Potter. We can't wait until the next movie comes out!!

The Shine Unschooling Gathering in Niagara Falls!!!!

We had the most wonderful time at this conference!! Here are some of the pictures. Fireworks, cool funshops,awesome hearthside chats, incredible families, beautiful children, joy,joy, and more joy,listening to Amy Steinberg,connections,friends, bliss, the Falls!, wax museum, sky ride, Planet Hollywood, and did I say incredible people?!

Slam!

Sam was practicing his dunking skills!

Swinging in the house

We replaced the rings with this swing. It has been so much fun. It is used multiple times everyday!!

Happiness is a bag of lollipops!

Could the name be any better? Happiness!!!

Bubble boys

I bought some bubbles when I was out tonight. I had so much fun watching them blow bubbles. they had a blast with them!
