First day of Pre-school



Hard to believe that Paul is ready for pre-school! You will notice from the window that this is the same spot Bryan & Morgan stand on the first day of school. I went to Gina's to pick him up and he had fallen asleep. He wasn't all to excited about going to school, he wanted a nap. (which both Gina & I agreed was strange, as it usually takes him a bit to settle down) Once we got to school and he saw some of the kids he seemed to relax. Wow 3 kids in school!

Morgan shows at Ne State Fair



We had another successful year at the Nebraska State Fair! Here is Morgan with her spring ewe lamb. She didn't place as high as I would have liked, belly wool up the side, but she will make a good ewe for our flock. Also the other picture is "sheep Morgan" She was being funny checking out the blocking stand!

Getting ready for the fair




Paul wanted to help get ready for the state fair. Here is a picture of the triplet spring ewe lamb Mike got from SDSU. I see a future sheep shower in the family!

General Mills Picnic


One of the highlights of summer for the kids is the General Mills Family Picnic with Aunt Karalyn. It was postponed one day to to rain but even a day later the kids had a blast...thanks Karalyn!


Pictured is Mike with Paul on his shoulders, Karalyn, Bryan, friend Andrew (not sure where Nick is at) and Morgan. I asked what their favorite part was and was told everything. Paul even talked on and on how Daddy had to walk to get the van because they were "slow pokes" and didn't get on the shuttle in time:)

Paul's tractor


Paul figured out how to use Mike's jack and had to "work" on his tractor. He was pretty excited. Guess it had to have new oil and fix a broken rod...at least that's what he told me:)
He starts school next week...

FINALLY Bryan's picture...he thought he was "TO OLD" to have his picture taken. See this is the window and daycare and every year since he started school his picture gets taken under this window...
Bryan's picture coming soon...it won't let me post other pics at the moment...
