We Are Still Here

Yes, we are still here.  I guess we have been super busy.  Between playing, working and getting all the food in our garden put up, I seemed to have forgotten to update our blog.  Here are some happenings!

We bought a new puppy.


The kids amazed us with their building abilities at a family reunion.  
Levi went on an overnight school field trip.  Dad decided to go along.
They learned a lot of new stuff.
They shared an old stinky cabin with mice during the night. There were about 50 boys plus dads that slept in there. 
They ate good food.
Levi had fun with cousins.  All three of them are in the same grade!

I found these pictures on the camera yesterday.  The kids must have gotten ahold of it.  I guess the kids are proud of growing something so big.  I am embarrassed  that things got so out of control.

On Saturday Levi and Dad took a long ride (5 hours) up on the mountains with some friends and relatives.  It was Thumper's first mountain ride since we have owned him.  If you look close Tike, the horse we are breaking, is behind Levi and Thumper.  It was his first time being rode outside of the corral.  There was no bucking!  Yea!  Chris says he thinks Tike might be a lazy horse.  We will have to see.
