Rain, Snow, Sleet or Shine - a fisherman never stops!

Conner and Jason fished in their first bass tournament of 2015 and it poured down rain the entire day!  They didn't seem to mind though!  They caught 9lbs of fish and came in 8th place!

Brenna's First Track Visit!

We have the bravest, funnest, best dad around at our house.  He takes these kids EVERYWHERE - even to the track!  They LOVED it!

Sweet Summertime!

So much fun that you fall asleep eating lunch!

All activities are done without clothes...well, at least without shoes!

Most importantly, all activities are done with friends and family!

First Grade Field Trip!

First Grade Field Trip to the Zoo!

DAD hair day!

There are bad hair days and then there are DAD hair days - I don't know which one is worse!!!

Mushroom hunters....Putnam County Style

All three kids loved hunting for and eating morels!

Fishing and other lake creatures..EWWW!

Bass, snakes and carp - oh my!  Fishing for anything and everything has begun!

Drew "I'm going to be a dirt bike racer when I grow up"

Drew got a little "dirt bike" for his birthday (it isn't real - it is battery powered but he doesn't know it!).  He was SO excited to get it because he has always asked to race them and Jason has always said they were too dangerous.  He practices all the time because, in his words "I'm going to be a dirt bike racer when I grow up"  I love watching him ride around the house - I know in his mind he is on a dirt race track, people are watching and he is about to cross the finish line!

Turkey Season 2015 - No luck!

The boys went turkey hunting a few times this spring - but didn't have any luck.  Next year they will get a big one!

Summer time is almost here!!!

Happy 5th Birthday, Drew!

Drew had an awesome Bass Fishing Fifth Birthday Party!  He had his friends from school and he friends from the Lake come over to join in the fun. We were blessed with gorgeous weather too!  I can't wait to watch Drew grow over the next year.  He is definitely developing independence and his personality and sense of humor continue to grow each day too.  I honestly can't believe he is five - he still loves to hold me and give me kisses, he still likes to play make-believe with all of his toys.  He is an awesome big brother to Brenna.  He and Conner LOVE to fight about EVERYTHING - but they love to be together too.
