Smiles and Harvest!

I had to share some pictures of Kamryn's sweet little smile! I have so much fun trying to get her to smile and finally this morning I got the camera so I could capture it and share it with you guys. (I couldn't pick a favorite one to share, so here are few of them!)




Harvest is going well - even though we don't see Jeff much and the days as a single mom of 4 can be very long sometimes, it is just a neat time of year. The kids love riding on the combines - have been out several times and we just rotate the 3 kids between the 2 combines. Here are some pics I took today when we were out riding.




Carson started flag football this week. He is really liking it so far - only 2 practices, but he is very excited about it. I have to share this picture of Coleman and Kendall (Chad and Marie Denny's little girl). This was during flag football practice - they were just walking around holding hands and then stopped and were just looking out across the field and (if you can't tell, Coleman is pointing at something with his right hand) I don't know what Coleman is pointing at, but Marie got this picture of the 2 of them.


Oh, one more thing. Before the guys started harvest when we were waiting for it to dry out after we got a bunch of rain, we snuck away to Silverwood for a day. (I still think of you everytime I go to the ticket booth there, Kali!). It was a lot of fun, the kids had a blast (spent 1/2 day in the H2O park and 1/2 day on the rides). The older 2 and Jeff went on one of the big roller coasters and loved all the rides. Coleman found these little helicopters and loved them. There was no line, so he would go on it, get off, out through the gate and back on for the next time - over and over and over again! This picture of his "thumbs up!" sums up his feeling for what he calls "hopper coppers!"


Kali, the other day we saw an airplane fly over and Annika asks me "When can I go on an airplane down to where Aunt Bud lives and go shopping with her and stuff like that?" Where did that come from?

  2. Oh my gosh has Kamryn changed! I can't believe how she has grown - and what a cute smile! That is a darling picture of Coleman & Kendall - wonder why they started holding hands. All great pictures, Kaci. That was cute about Annika & Aunt Bud too. Hope someday it happens. Thanks for sharing. Mom

  3. Yes, all really great pictures! Fun, but busy times!

    I agree, Kamryn has changed - she doesn't look so much like Carson anymore.
