The Mighty Hunters




Drake and I ready for Pheasant opening day. We ended up walking 5 or 6 miles and Drake made it the whole way. Unfortunately we saw more miles that day than birds, but it was still a great to be out as father and son.

Random Weekend Pics!


This swing has apparently stood the test of time. The lady who lived in our house before us stopped by and said they put the swing up in 1971, and from that point on it was considered "the neighborhood swing." We put up a new rope (thanks to Uncle Jordan) and Jon made a new seat for it, but the branch is obviously standing strong. (see above picture...incredible huh?! Who knew it could hold all of that?! he he) This swing has been played with more then the entire swing set we had at our old house. It's the simple things in life that end up being the best things!



The hopscotch that goes up to 119. Now that will give you a workout!

Silly Faces

The hot football Dad!

Jon, Elsie and Drake playing 500

The "diet" cookies. Yum!

Peekaboo Elsie!!

Our house, after spending all of Saturday trimming bushes and doing yard work. We hauled two truckloads of branches away, but it really cleaned everything up. If you notice we also took the ancient air conditioner out that was sticking out of the front of the house. Jon and I can now officially say that we can do siding!



Don't let the big sad puppy eyes fool you. Touche' spent the weekend chewing two holes in the rug, so I threw him outside where he then dug two holes in the yard! Good thing he's so cute. :-)

Jon playing with dry ice and having entirely toooo much fun!


Jon had the bright idea to bake not 1 but 2 batches of yummy cookies just after we decided to start a diet. Needless to say.... the cookies won. :-)
