a little hard work never hurt anyone...

We had our sweet little cousins from Coos Bay come stay with us last week.  We all did some yard work together.  These little troopers were so great!  All smiles, no complaining!  Look at all these happy faces and happy hands pulling weeds!  It was so fun.

Pig pile on Nathan......Dave just informed me that it's a dog pile not a pig pile.
Anyone else ever heard of a pig pile?  I grew up with pig piles.

Taking a break.


All the kids ready to go to church at 8:30 am Sunday morning.  I was a little worried about getting 9 kids ready for church, but Ryan and Tonya's kids are well trained and were up getting dressed and fixing their breakfast before I had a chance to ask them to.  They made it very easy:)

  1. Even though I complained about doing yard work while growing up, I really have such fond memories of it. I will always think of Mom out there with the burn barrel just burning away! :) Good job to your kids!! Love you guys!!

    Family truly is the best. Hopefully we will get to see you guys sometime this Summer. Fingers crossed we make it up to Oregon in early August!
