Big Helper

Austin is at the stage in life when he wants to be helping with whatever I am doing. So as long as I can find a way to include him in my activities, he is a pretty good kid. His favorite things to help me with are, the dishes, vacuuming (he has to hold on the handle with me), and taking a spray bottle and a rag and wiping down whatever he fancies.

Performing on Demand

Cute to see little Keeton starting to talk, this was the end of June, so the talking has advanced since then, as well as crawling everywhere. They grow up so fast.

Betty Crocker Wanna-be

So we were given a box of fresh peaches that needed to be used, so I whipped up a fresh peach pie, crust and all. When my Dad and Karilynn came to visit us a couple weekends ago. It was super yummy, so I figured it was Blog worthy.

Fun Friends

Tynley Jo was having fun in Aunt Jaina's tupperware cupboard.
Austin and Ty were trying on Ryan's Halliburton work hat, what cute little buddies.

Stinkin cute peanut!

Who wants to play chicken?

So my Mom, Tammy came over to visit us this weekend. The boys and I were already in Utah and rode over to Colorado with her. We had a great weekend, we went to the park by our house, which has a nice long track that goes around a couple soccer fields, and several swingsets. So we would jog around the track a few times and let the kids out to play at the end. This has become part of our morning routine to wake up and go to the park. We also canned some of my Grandpa and Grandma Tagg's yummy zucchini relish. It is a family favorite, and it was my first time making it. I hope it tastes as good as theirs. We are so stingy with the jar that we get, trying to make it last as long as we can, now we don't have to be, since we made 8 jars this size, and I fully plan on making another batch. We had such a great time with Grandma Tammy here that when we went outside to leave for the park this morning, Austin asked me where Grandma's car was, I told him that she had gone home already, and he seems ok with that response until we got to the park, and every woman that jogged by he asked where Grandma was, he is so cute. We love our Grandma so much! P.S. She is the one that took this picture, Ryan thought we should make it a 4 tier and put Keeton on top of Austin, luckily Keeton was sleeping so we didn't have to try it!
