LET'S UPDATE SOME PICTURES!









WELL, AS MOST OF YOU KNOW, DAISY GOT SHOT TWICE AND WE HAD TO AMPUTATE HER BACK LEFT LEG. SHE NOW IS A THREE LEGGED DOG AND GETS AROUND JUST FINE!






MIRIAM'S GRADUATION FROM 6TH GRADE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. SHE DID SO WELL AND WE ARE SO PROUD OF HER. SHE IS REALLY EXCITED TO GO TO MIDDLE SCHOOL!




MOST OF YOU HAVE HEARD THE STORY OF THIS ONE, BUT A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS. THEY BOTH CAME AND ASKED IF THEY COULD GO HUNT A RABBIT WITH JACOB'S NEW SLING SHOT. I WAS LIKE, " SURE , GO AHEAD, AND GOOD LUCK!" THEY CAME BACK IN AN HOUR WITH A DEAD RABBIT. I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT! SO WE SKINNED IT AND HAD RABBIT STEW WHICH MIRIAM COOKED ALL BY HERSELF. IT WAS PRETTY TASTY!



THIS IS A GREAT SUMMER PROJECT THAT KEEPS THEM BUSY FOR HOURS. PAINTING ON THE DRIVEWAY WITH BUTCHER PAPER. THEY LOVE IT.

WELL LET'S SEE IF I REMEMBER HOW TO DO THIS!

JACOB HAD SUCH A GREAT TIME ON HIS CAMP OUT WITH PAPA AND BRENDEN, HIS COUSIN. PAPA WAS SWEET ENOUGH TO MAKE JACOB A LUNCH AND GET A GOOD SLEEPING BAG FOR HIM SINCE HIS PARENT'S FAILED IN THIS AREA. LOL THANKS DAD!!!!
IT WAS GOOD WEATHER EXCEPT FOR AT 2AM IT STARTED RAINING ON THEM AND PAPA GOT UP AND COVERED THE BOYS WITH A TARP. JACOB SAID HE DIDN'T GET COLD THOUGH, AND THE RAIN DIDN'T LAST LONG.
THE BOYS HAD TO BUILD THE FIRE AND HELP MAKE DINNER. FIRE IS JACOB'S FUNNEST PART OF CAMPING.

JACOB STAYED WITH BRENDEN AT AUNT AMY'S FOR A WHOLE WEEK AND HE REALLY GOT TO KNOW BRENDEN BETTER. HE LOVE'S HIS COUSINS!
