Twins

Marc and Luke have matching noses, Luke crashed on his bike, and Marc fell while camping.  Not the best look for them, but we will still keep them!

Here are a few random pictures of the boys.

We had cherries and Marc painted his face with them, and Luke did magic tricks. Where’s the cherry… Here it is!

Marc is still Marc, crazy as can be.  He is growing up so fast and is a great helper.

Luke has become quite the child, talking really brings out a personality.  I think these days he likes ranch and reading on the pot!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

John has morphed from a baby into a kid.  He is into everything, always wants to do what the big kids are doing, loves electronics, and can throw a great tantrum.  Still he is a fun kid and we love him.

New House

We are in the process of buying a new house, and we are excited to finally be settled (I hope!!!).  It is a really old house and with that comes character and fun things to fix.  I am excited to decorate, Matt is overwhelmed by all my great ideas, and the boys don’t really know what’s going on!  Here are a few pictures of the house, maybe one day I will have great before and after pictures.

Water Slide

I got a few sleds from a garage sale and Marc was bound and determined to build a water slide like grandpa’s so he could use the sleds.  The only difference is Grandpa’s water slide is 150 ft and Marc’s was 5 ft.  Still it kept them entertained for awhile and they loved it.  John especially loves water and I can’t keep him out of it.

Matt’s races

I have been terrible at taking pictures this summer.  Matt ran a race this weekend and I took the camera, but the battery was dead, so I have nothing to show for it.  This race was crazy it was a 25k (15.5 miles) race up over two mountains.  Matt did great, but I have never seen him so beat after a race.  He ended up 5th overall but he’s not sure it was worth it!  In July Matt ran a half marathon. He did great in that one too, and won his age division.  I did take my camera so here are a few pictures from that race. (Marc was the photographer so keep that in mind!)

Fair Time

We went to the county fair last week.   It wasn’t huge and Matt wasn’t impressed, but the boys had a great time and that’s what’s important right?  The boys each got to choose one ride to go on and guess what they chose, the giant slide.  I tried to convince them to ride the dragon or cars or something that moved, but they knew what they wanted I guess and they loved the slide.  Here are a few pics.
