Sometimes Jacob likes to do "track workouts" with me.  We did them this summer while the girls were practicing softball.

We made a trip to Lincoln to celebrate my Grandma's 90th Birthday this year complete with a trip to the Omaha Zoo and a family party.

My kids love lightning bugs since we don't have them in WY

Water balloon fight!

It was snowing at the cabin in late June!

Jacob attended the Jim Gatchell Museum art classes this summer.

Gabi's team this summer

They wore red, white, and blue ribbons in their hair in honor of Seth Rasmusen, the fallen marine from Buffalo.

Joe took Jacob and Maya to Colorado while Gabi & I were at a softball tournament in Billings.  They were able to go to Boondocks with Joe's company party and also to the Aquarium.  They spent some time with my mom and dad as well.

Maya and my mom went on a bike ride to Vern's for cinnamon rolls!

We watched a lot of softball this summer.  Both girls did great and improved so much!

Maya #3

Gabi #00

Jacob was a trooper, especially when his buddy, Sonic, came along.

They also played rec ball on their local Buffalo team.  These girls have been playing together for a long time, but this will be their last season together as most have aged out.

May 2022

May tends to be our busiest month finishing up the school year, running track, and starting softball, and celebrating two birthdays. And we love every minute!

Jacob celebrated his First Communion

My kids treated me well on Mother's Day!

Maya played in a softball tournament in Spearfish, SD.  Jacob, her, and I had a fun weekend staying in a little cabin and exploring Spearfish Canyon and the fish hatchery in between games.  It was beautiful!

Maya's team was 2nd place in the tournament

We have another teenager in the house.  Maya turned 13! We are so proud of her. :)

Jacob turned 9!  He is such a funny boy and still loves his Sonic!

Celebrating the Cousins Birthdays!

The summer work at the cabin has begun!  Joe started replacing all of the fencing abound two sides of the property.  Big Job!
