The D Man

 LOVE this kid.  Here are a few shots that I took when we were out taking Tory and Elizabeth's photos.  He was such a ham.  I am amazed at how much he has grown.  He made me a Mother and I am forever grateful for him.

 Such a sweet little boy.  So thankful that he is quick to forgive and always there to give me hug.

 Yes, he is totally awesome.  Love his Cars watch from his cousins.

Love you Dallas Cade!  So glad I captured you at the wonderful age of 3!

The Thornton's

 Tory and Elizabeth asked me to snap a few photos of them so they could have an updated family photo.  I always get so nervous to take photos, but I do love it.  I think we did a pretty good job.

 Which one doesn't belong?!?!  Dallas didn't understand that he couldn't be IN.EVERY.PHOTO!!!!  He was in tears everytime I'd pull him out.  Silly boy.  He loves his cousins.

Boys are MESSY

Working out in the garden after being gone a whole week.  It's growing!!!  It was a hot day so we pulled out the pool and let the boys play.  Too bad they just want to get muddy.  :)  Glad they were in their swimsuits.

This is after Dallas dumped mud on Wes.  He's such a good brother.....

PUMPKINS!!!!  We are so excited.  They boys are so happy to see that their garden is growing.

What's this?  A watermelon!!  We have one.  That's all we need.  :)

Digging weeds in the pumpkin patch.

Beans.  We've already picked a few and ate them straight from the garden. 

I sure hope my boys like veggies after they have worked to grow them. 

Huh....did I say my kids are messy????  WHY is he dumping mud on his head???

Love this guy.  We sure missed him when he had to leave vaca early for work.  Glad he let us stay and play. 

Peppers are growing.

Green tomatoes!  Everyday Dallas asks if they are red yet.  He can't wait.

And this little man decided to get a nasty cold and was not a happy camper.  He didn't like being left in his bouncy seat while we were playing in the sun.  Can you believe he'll be 10 weeks old tomorrow??  Time is flying by with this sweet babe.  So glad he is in our family.  I love having babies (minus the loss of sleep and nursing all.day.long.)

Carol and Chelsea come to visit

My aunt Carol and cousin Chelsea were driving home and stopped to say hi.  It was so fun to have them over!  We ate dinner and sat around and talked.  It was a short visit, but we're so glad they stopped.  My boys love Carol and had fun showing off their toys and what not.  We love you!

Loud Noises

And it looks like we won't be going anywhere, anytime soon.

My street has been shut down now for two plus weeks.  It's driving me crazy with all the noise and random workers taking breaks on my lawn, but my boys are loving it.
