Cow licked


Nick and I stopped at the Otte's farm to pay for our quarter beef. While there we HAD to visit the cows.

Adelynn reached out her hand and #602 came in closer. Then the slimy lick followed. She found a feed scoop and spotted the skid loader with some leftover feed. Her eyes lit up and off she ran to get some feed for her new friends.

My family belongs on a farm. Honestly, we do.

Nothing can stop me now!


Noah has been eyeing up the slide for a couple weeks only attempting to climb it here and there. Now he can't get enough of it. He's so proud he made it to the top.

Adelynn will come up by him and they'll giggle at each other. Oh the fun they have now. I hope they keep a good sibling relationship going.

She found her sport!

Sam has tried a variety of sports such as soccer, basketball, t-ball, gymnastics, dance, cheerleading and hockey.

Her first season of hockey ended in March. Since then she signed up for an eight week hockey clinic out of Faribault at Shattuck. Now she's going for another eight weeks on a summer team where she plays for one hour every Wednesday. 

We promised her a new and more compact bag if she signed up for the next fall/winter season. Hockey is expensive as a whole but if you think about ice time and refs, it's understandable. If you break it down by the number if practices and games it really isn't that bad of a deal. I'm glad she found something and I'm happy to be back in the ice arena again.

What's for dinner

Sam didn't want to wait for me to make her dinner so she took it upon herself to make dinner for herself, Noah and Adelynn. What did my almost nine year old make?

Cheese roll-ups. Quality!

He's Walking!

Noah has been working on a few steps since the first week in May. Today he took off. We were visiting Great Grandpa Williams and Noah walked across the whole room. It was pretty fun to see and my Grandpa Paul was able to take part in that moment.

Moobie Time

Adelynn sure does love her moobies. Her first favorite was The Croods. We watched it at least 23 times with a minimum of six of those times on our Florida trip. She likes to relate the characters with her family. "Dats you and dats me. No, momma, dats me."

Her next love is Frozen. Disney movies were all about singing when I was growing up. Then the singing stopped for many years. We took Adelynn to her first movie at the theatre to see Frozen and I thought there was too much singing. Then it caught fire and kids all over we're watching the movie and singing along. It hit me. I too loved the songs when I was little.

Lasagna Kisses

How can a face like this not make you feel so full of love?
In no time, Noah's mouth will fill with teeth and he'll be running around. It all happens a bit too fast.
