Everyday kind of things

The boys have been spending most of these summer days outside (when it's not raining which isn't often). We had wanted to go to a park today but I spent all day trying to get Cade to take a nap, thus we were home bound. We were all enjoying outside for a bit and I took some snapshots of the boys with my better camera just to freeze time. They grow so quickly. Here they are doing their favorite thing. Playing with weapons.







My beautiful baby! He turned 8 months this past week.

I have had cute conversations with Sage recently. It went like this:
Me: Wouldn't it be amazing to be alive when Jesus come back to get us?
Sage: You mean we don't have to die first?
Mama: No, if we haven't died yet we can still go to heaven with Jesus. It just depends on when he comes.
Sage: Oh!
Mama: Won't it be amazing to hear the trumpet and see Jesus coming on the clouds?
Sage: Yes! And when he comes I'll go grab my binoculars so I can get a closer look!

Also, for whatever reason Sage thinks if he wears goggles in the pool he doesn't need to plug his nose. ;)

Apple Creek

 A new year, a new orchard. This year we tried out Apple Creek Orchard and it was a really pretty place. We picked apples, took a hay ride, and the boys had fun with the apple slinger. We were joined by Tom's parents and it feels so good to have them now living close by instead of far away. 

Almost to the finish line.

 It's hard to believe that Aiden turns 18 in one week and walks through graduation in just one month. After more than a decade of homeschooling, 2 years of PSEO, and no less than one million moments that I'll treasure forever, my oldest will be an adult and graduated. Great things are ahead for my boy!

Happy Birthday, Cade!

 My littlest is seven and it's hard  not to be sad. We couldn't be without him, and we're so glad he's ours.  At seven years old Cade loves to do what everyone else is doing. He will NOT play by himself, and maybe it's because he's used to having someone to entertain him all the time. He loves legos and soccer. He also loves to read. I am ALWAYS finding Cade trying to tackle reading a book he probably isn't quite ready for. Lately he's been trying to read The Hobbit. While he's able to read all the words, he just doesn't have the depth of understanding to read it independently quite yet. He LOVES Tom Sawyer so he was delighted to find an abridged version to read.  Cade makes up his own mind about things. He will NOT be bossed around. He holds his own, so I don't worry about his brothers pushing him over. Cade also won't be pushed over physically. He is one tough kid. If Cade is crying, I know he is actually hurt because he never cries ove...
