last year

i am trying to be better about posting. i am posting pictures from last year and putting them in the date they took place. so you will have to go back to november and december to see pictures from thanksgiving, jayden's baptism, christmas, etc.

up on the house top

goat was hanging out on the top of his house. he loves to climb up on anything. yesterday it snowed and you could tell he wasn't very happy. i think he is ready for spring like the rest of us!

dusty

a couple of weeks ago there was this stray dog that was roaming around the neighborhood. well one of jay's scouts down the road brought her to our house wanting to know what to do with her. we chained her up and fed her so we could see if we could find her owner. we have since named her dusty because her tail is so fluffy and like a duster. the boys have fallen in love with her. the boys also love to race with dusty. we made up a sign and haven't had any luck finding her owner. still not sure what we are going to do with her.

i like mountain dew

jay has a new student. he has taught emily to say " i like moutain dew" and then gives her a treat. we have gotten a lot of laughs from this.

the tunnel

the boys found a fabulous place to play. they have played there for hours. it is in the ditch that runs along the front of our yard. the boys really really wanted emily to go in the tunnel with them. she didn't last very long because she got scared because of the "bad guys" hanging in the tunnel.

strike a pose

we just love our turtle that we brought home from texas. he is so funny. here is a pose i caught on camera.

life of the party

jay has always been the one to entertain all of us. i just love that about him. we never have a dull moment with him around. so jay was cleaning out the scout trailer and tried emptying the water coolers. come to find out the water was frozen solid. he tried melting the ice by pooring boiling water into the cooler. then the light bulb clicked and he decided to chizel enough of the ice so we could fit our heads into the ice cube. here is the end result.

i was for sure my brain was going to freeze because it was so cold!!!
