We've had a pretty busy summer so far, and it's not going to slow down. We moved to Idaho the end of June, and started looking for a home (still in the process). Jude was blessed on July 4th-he's getting big so fast! The next day was Stratton's birthday and the town celebration for 4th of July. He fully believes that the parade and fireworks were all for him. He requested a "black robot cake" which we assumed meant chocolate... Matt's sister and her family came from Michigan, and also his other sis and here daughters were here from Scottsdale. It was so great to get to see everyone. We spent most of July surrounded by family and having fun. Actually, Matt had to leave for 2 weeks for art shows, but the rest of us were having fun :)
Blessing Day
Emily's Matthew and Samuel, My Stratton and Jude, and Melissa's Jaxon and Likon. Six boys and counting.
Jude is getting so big! He's such a happy baby.
One of our neighbors recently said "oh yeah! Should have warned you, your house gets seriously drifted in all winter long!" This day it was blowing so hard we couldn't even see the 3 1/2 foot drift blocking our driveway, so we ended up high-centered and stuck pretty well...Stratton loved the excitement of the whole thing. And Matt got a great workout digging us out. We had to drive around the driveway across the yard to get into the garage. So grateful for a wonderful brother-in-law and his backhoe who dug out our driveway-we owe you big Nate.
Stratton loves the snow!
