Independance Day

Here's some pics from Independance day! We had a fun day. Kayaking and playing on the beach in the morning, naps, BBQ, then fireworks!! YAY

I made some cute flowers for the girls....we'll start with Macy's :)

Lane and Macy are so cute. As crazyas lane is sometimes, he can be a really sweet big brother. He still likes to make the babies laugh,and he lets them "get him" and wrestle, gives hugs, and still likes to sing songs to the girls before bed time....it's so sweet. I love this picture of macy.....she's such a cutie!

Macy loves her big brother too! Whenever she hears him she gets a big smile!

All the babes and their flag shirts! YAY for America!!

I couldn't get her to take her had out of her mouth

two american girls!

I had to put this one in.....lucy's face is awesome!

My flower...

Me and my guy...

The kids had fun watching fireworks this year! We were slackers and didn't even buy one sparkler!!!! Always next year!

green eggs and ham

On the 4th of July we had green eggs and ham for breakfast...per lane's request....

going for the first bite

"I DO like green eggs and ham!"

Lucy waited for everyone else to try it before she did...

Not too bad...

Macy dove in fearlessly......

Scott was kind of wussie about the whole ordeal.....

Lucy ended up with the apples.....

It was fun! I don't think we've ever seen lane eat so many eggs ever!! yay for green eggs and ham!! Thank you, dr suess

Meat chicks: take 1

This is a little late, but that's ok. We did our first round of meat hens this spring. We started out with 12, butchered 11. I lost track of how much feed we bought, but I *THINK* that we ended up at about 2-2.50$ per pound. BUT the meat is great, and the breasts are HUGE (2 can feed our family) There is definately something satisfying about knowing where your meat came from. SO we are doing another round of chicks.... I spared you all the gory pictures.....but here's what they ended up like.....;) The butchering wasn't too bad.....but then again....i was just watching! :) We'll see what I can do this next go at it!

Macy's big adventures

Macy is getting so big and fun! She has had some fun adventures the past little while...

If you look closely, you can see two new additions. She's grown her first two little teeth on the bottom! So cute..

She's learned how to crawl up stairs.....ugh

We no longer need a vaccume (sp??)

She's getting along well with big sis lately. They are so cute. Lucy will run into macy's room in the mornings and they just laugh and smile at each other.....

4 Generations and more

First off, can i just say again that I think my Gramma is amazing? What other 87 year old can pull off a sassy sparkly jacket on her way to her 70th high school reunion!?!?!?! yeah... Awesome

Gramma and Grampa Con
4 Generations: Jeff's Family

Me and my brother, Jeff

me and Micheal

4 Generations: Wood Family....and Ashley :)

more tortuous pictures :)

Lane and Grampa P

Lucy was alllll done taking pictures at this point :)

family fiasco

Well I've resigned myself to the fact that my family does not take family pictures welll....These all look pretty similar but i think it's funny to see them all together. You can see Lane's transformation as I try and tickle him to make him smile, while Macy is inching her way off my lap, and Lucy's poker face.....blah.....i envy families that have beautiful family portaits where even the littlest baby is at least LOOKING at the camera.....*sigh* someday.....

Oh well....I guess it's real, right?? :)
