NNO -2011 ROCKS Hillside Village

What a blast this was! Our neighborhood has been celebrating NNO for a few years, I have to say that this one was the best so far! The kids had a blast and it was fun watching their faces and seeing their excitment! We were missing a few families and family members, but overall it was a good turn out! I love our neighborhood, we have SO much fun!

Summer vacation with ALL of us!

Hill City, Mn or bust! That was our destination and we had a BLAST!!! The entire week was beautiful, cold the first day we got there, sunny and nice the entire week! Boys obviously fished the entire time and caught baskets and baskets of fish! It was hard to come back and we are counting down the days until next year!

The perks of having 3 boys..

When dads away I get to take them fishing! I don't like fishing, but these 3 do!

Think he has a bite on his homemade fishing pole I made him, doubt it since there is no hook on it! Shhhhh don't tell Owen!

Thank goodness the only fish they caught, they could get it off the hook themselves! Yuck!

My boys are spoiled!

And not by us, by our babysitter Jessica!
Really this girl rocks! Jessica, Bailey and Brady are the best of friends and it just makes going to work so much better knowing they are having so much fun and getting along! This is Jessica's 3rd year watching the boys and I wish I could keep her forever!

This is a picture of the boys at the drive-in movie she took them too, she stole them from us one night took them on a date and then kept them overnight, really who does that!? Jessica!

Jessica I want you to stay 22 forever and babysit for us forever!!! We appreicate everything you do and honestly you set the standards high for future babysitters!

Let the summer begin!

So school is out and this is how the boys spend most of their days... fishing! Jessica is a saint,really she is! I CAN'T praise her enough, her and my boys get ALONG so well it is scary! Makes me want her to NEVER grow up because I will NEVER find another sitter like her!

Brady turned "7" on the 28th of May! He has 3 of his buddies over for a sleepover and pizza, we had a blast! Then on Saturday we took all 3 boys golfing, we didnt get to golf our 9 holes but had fun anyways! Hard to believe he is 7 and going to be in 2nd grade!


Golfing! The golf course needs more bathrooms, Owen and Bailey taking a bathroom brake!

As always summer is so busy! We've had a few other commitments as well as daily life stuff so we have been busier than usual! Bailey is still enjoying baseball, he got his 1st homerun and has really improved on his pitching and batting! Brady was suppose to start last week but they canceled because of the heat, so he starts tomorrow. O just goes along for the ride, pretty sure by the time O gets old enough to play sports he wont want to remembing how he was toted around to every practice and game to every sport imaginable!! LOL

So hoping for another great summer with my awesome family!
