Summer 2016 in America (Weeks 3 & 4)

The grandmas wanted some updated pictures of the kids and I realized I don't take many pictures of them by themselves. So I took some pictures for the grandmas and these were too cute not too share. Yohanis is 10, Colson is 9, Vienna is 7, Isaiah is 4 and Brooks is 2. And Joel is 31 and I am 30 ;)

Summertime craftin' with Grammy! We made tie-dye shirts.

Modeling the finished product with Grammy!

Delicious ice cream, oh how we've missed you! Thank you to our parents who love us so well by keeping their freezers stocked with unimaginable amounts of this yummy goodness!!

These two brothers cheesin' it.

Eating the wild raspberries they picked.

Visiting Pop at work

Watching an airplane come in for landing at Pop's work.

Joel hard at work in his pottery shop.

An evening spent playing baseball. Yohanis and Colson are ALL about baseball this summer. Watching it, playing it, they just can't get enough!

Monkey bar fun at the park.

Isaiah is our master climber!

Fun with Pop

One of Joel's first pieces out of the kiln.

Love this girl! So thankful to have her for a little sister (in law). She's the best!

Celebrating Uncle Torrey's birthday.

Roasting marshmallows for s'mores.

Me and my girl going for a walk in the woods. Our kids love that Grammy and Pop live in the woods and there are so many trails to walk and places to explore.

The crew with their walking sticks on an afternoon hike, or in Colson's case, his was a javelin.

Summer 2016 in America (week 2 continued)

Going for a walk to the covered bridge.

I loved coming here as a kid!

Friday morning at Green Dragon - the best Farmer's Market around!

I love how Brooks is holding Yohanis' hand from the stroller.

Of course Mom-Mom let the kids pick out some candy!

Boston Cream donuts were a must! My absolute favorite!

Swimming in the creek, and with the cows too :) Just like I did when I was a little girl.

Happy Brooks!

Me and my daddy! And that is the closest thing we can get to a smile from him :)

The kids all lined up ready to hunt for Easter eggs. Yes, Easter eggs in June! It was my mom's idea to celebrate a lot of the holidays we missed. So far she has taken all the kids birthday shopping and made "Christmas" dinner (we even decorated gingerbread houses too). Love that she is making our time here so special.

Brooks hunting for eggs.

Yohanis learning to ride the fourwheeler . . . . I think this picture speaks for itself. HAHA!

Yohanis taking Pop-Pop for a ride.

Vienna helping Mom-Mom make the crescent rolls for our Christmas dinner.

Christmas dinner!

Love my mom and grandma!!

Spending the afternoon with both of my grandmas. What incredible women they are!

Me and my sister-in-law, Rachael (and of course little Eve had to sneak in the picture too)
