Summer Yard pictures- before our golf ball size hail -Yikes

Well here is our official summer photos of our yard and little garden. Some of them are kinda duplicated but I thought that mom and dad especially would enjoy them. I have been trying really hard this summer to keep things looking green and spruced up.....untill God decided to bless us with some golf ball sized hail last week. I know there is a silver lining in everything but it is going to be hard to convince my poor little garden of that ! So I am not going to show "After" pics because iam too bumed out right now. :( (Maybey you will get them in another week?)

Kadence sure has fun in his BIG yard and loves running around and throwing rocks in the ditch.

Hope you all are having a good summer. We love you all and think of all the family every day.

Family time with cousins in Yellowstone Park

Madison River Float- Kadence's 1st

Neighborhood Kid Fun day

Manhattan area backyard party with lots of kids, waterballoons and yummy food. :)

Gallatin County Fair

Kadence rode his first fair ride at the fair all by himself. He kept talking about his helicopter ride and how he flew it. It was also fun for him to pet all the animals.

Fourth of July Parade and camping trip

This was the rodeo parade in Livingston, Mt. a day before the 4th. Kade really like seeing the horses in the parade and did quite well collecting candy from the floats. :)

Joel's 28th Birthday Cake

Kadence and his cousin Marcus are in the pic about as excited as Joel.

Vacation Bible School Pics

VBS at Manhattan Bible Church- June 2009

The theme was Amazon Jungle with stories and crafts that went along with it. I couldn't have done the decorating without Joel and Jennifer's help ! :) (Sorry the pics are kinda blurry i had my camera on the wrong setting)
