Will and Mike on the Polar Express

Me and Mikey on the Polar Express! It was our 3rd year taking the boys on the North Pole Express and they had a great time once again. Will was so excited to meet Santa, he kept saying "I can't believe Santa wears glasses!" He got to tell Santa what he wanted for Christmas and then they both received a bell from Santa's reindeer. We all had a great time, its such a fun way to get into the spirit of Christmas!

Christmas Photo 2011

Christmas 2011

Mike and I haven't had our picture taken together since before Will was born and we thought it was about time to get one done. So...who did we ask to photograph us....Will! He was very professional and did a fantastic job, the picture turned out great! Thanks Willie boy!

Pumpkin Patch with the Boys!

We found this great pumpkin patch that had tons of great photo ops! There was a huge pumpkin patch, two corn mazes( one for especially for little kids), 15 tractors old and new for the kids to sit on, horse trailers full of hay, and an old truck full of pumpkins. And best of all it was very inexpensive and the boys LOVED it...especially the tractors!

Of course Will loved the Ford tractor!

Where's the field I need to plow? I'm ready!

Ah..the view from up here is awesome!

Such a fun place to go....even for us!

Here's......Georgie!

We decided to add another member to our family. Welcome Georgie! He is a 5 pound-7 week old Fawn Boston Terrier. He is so sweet and FULL of all things puppy.....eat, poop, play and sleep. Kinda sounds like a newborn? The boys are having so much fun with him and of course Mike and I are in heaven. We love dogs and are so excited to have Georgie. Will came up with his name before we even got him and well....it stuck. He's Georgie through and through!

The boys!

Grandma and the boys skipping rocks! Mike ended up getting the most skips with a record of 11 skips on one rock!

Beautiful Grandma Robin enjoying the view from the dock.

This is proof that I was on the trip!! I usually end up taking most of the photos so this is proof that I was there and I did catch a lot of fish too...although I have no picture to prove it!

This is a great view from the boat to the other side of the lake where our house is.

Mikey reeling in a fish!

Rainbow trout!

Our friends Suzanne, Chris and Riley met us up at Lake Agnes and we were trying to get a picture of the 3 kids.....this is the best of about 25 pictures! There wasn't one where all of them were looking at the camera. This one even includes their dog Casey at the bottom of the picture.

Fishin'

Another trout!

Mama driving the boat!

Grandpa John, Mikey and Dad out for a walk!

Silly Willie!

The Whopper! Our last and biggest fish of the the trip! We ended up catching 19 fish in 4 days and we weren't really trying that hard. It's a lot to fish with two kids and a dog and Mike trolling 3 to 4 lines at a time!

Our last night in Lake Agnes, we were living it up with smores by the fire! Mmmmmmmmm.

Summer Fun & Will's 5th Birthday Party

Preparing for our fishing trip, Mike is teaching the boys how to cast.

Happy Birthday Will! I can not believe Will is 5! Where has the time gone? He had a great party full of family, freinds, chocolate cake (that I made all by myself!) and fireworks! Since his birthday falls so close to the 24th of July we have made it a tradition to do fireworks and he absolutely loves the celebration!

Making a wish!

Me and my birthday boy!
