Horse rides!

We took a day trip to uncle Newell & aunt Mary's house! We had "ride a horse" on our bucket list, so it was perfect to get a chance to visit them as we'll!
Aubrey even got to witness the action!
The kids were good about waiting & watching until it was their turn!
Cayden got to go first! He was so excited!
Then Sidney got to ride with Mary while Prestyn rode behind.
Prestyn was pretty quiet during his first ride & Sidney jabbered the whole time.
They loved it!
Then Prestyn blabbed the entire time when he rode with Mary!
They got to help feed Dusty & White Cloud after they were done!
We got home, ate supper & watched this beautiful view!
These little people keep me smiling!

Charlie

This one is for you Stephanie!

Charlie's been working hard out here, but I think he's been having a TON of fun too!  He's was helping papa by polishing off the rust from some bolts for the tractor tires here.
Then he was busy jacking up the front end of the tractor to get the wheels moved out!

Here he was ready to go out & help feed cows!


After some fun 4-wheeling through the water puddles with his favorite auntie!
Here he was having fun lighting off fireworks for us all!
He must have hijacked my camera at some point! Teehee
Check out those LONG legs!
Charlie got to shoot a rabbit!
I convinced him to run with me one morning...actually he lost a bet, so he HAD to run!  He was true to his bet & I actually convinced him to run again another time! So fun!
Ready for some cow moving & branding!
Branding calves & goofing off!
He has a soft side too & I'm pretty sure he loves "Ninny", & the kitties!
He tried sitting on the auger & crossing his legs & fwap...he fell right off! So glad my camera is always handy!
He cleans up nice for weddings!
He danced with Sidney to keep her happy!
He LOVES getting dirty, and always included the boys...especially when it involved mud!
Then we had a bunch of fun running through the sprinkler & jumping over Cayden!
We've thoroughly enjoyed the month on the farm with Charlie! He's such a fun kid & such a hard worker!

Outdoor fun with the cousins!

The Marotteks came tonight & the kids all immediately paired off & started playing.  The 3 boys ended up trying to climb this tree after getting a shoe & a hat stuck in it.
Cuties! 
Then we started a game of frisbee! So much fun! These are the days they'll look back on & remember! 
Alex & Prestyn were on a team & scheming!
Hope & Cayden were on a team!
Anthony & Sidney were off doing their own thing, always side by side!
Charlie was buy fixing his trap!
These two were close by the action.
While Aubrey just sat looking beautiful & took it all in! 
Then we wrapped up the outdoor festivities on the swinging gate!
