Family picture day...

One Sunday afternoon we met Marci and Dan at Gardner Village to take pictures of each other. It was a beautiful day but it was too sunny and Paul and I are squinting in all of the pictures. Zach did not want to smile so, as you can see none of the pictures turned out all that well. There were quite a few that I thought were really cute and funny but I don't know that any will go on the wall. Thanks Marci for your best efforts though, we had a great time! :) I do love the ones where we are looking at the pond.. that way you can't see our squinty eyes. :)







Zach and Paul had to check out the ducks while we were at the Village.

Messy boy!!

Kelsie turned 18 in June so we went to dinner and hung out with them on her birthday. I made her a lion cake like Zach was going to have on his birthday as a practice. After dinner we went to Kelsie's for cake and ice cream...


Aunt Kristi made Zach his own ice cream cone... And this is where it begins...


He then got into the cake...


Then back to the ice cream...


Tried to attack Aunt Kristi...


And then attacked the cake again... Oh my goodness! He was a wreck, yes we did give him a bath before we took him home! He was more into getting messy with this cake than he was on his birthday. Sad day!

Future Fireman?

These pictures were also from Idaho, My brother in law has this awesome fire truck that no one is allowed to play in... except for Zach? He didn't get in trouble so I guess it was ok! Zach loved it, the bell clangs and it didn't take long for him to figure that out! He is such a ham!!!
