Mish Mash

This post is a little bit all over the place - kind of like life, right?! 

Some things that have been going on:

T-ball





The boys loved it, though it wasn't quite competitive enough for my overly competitive Kason.  Asher usually just chatted it up on the bases.  Isaac and I were so glad when we didn't have to go to "t-ball" 3 nights a week anymore!
Emry caused chaos by running away during the games and generally trying to do whatever she wanted.  
It's either super sweet or super ornery with her.


Asher learned to ride a bike without training wheels!
We had taken off the pedals of a little bike of his to mimic those balance bikes and we are fans now!
The first time he took right off.

Necessary light saber accessory


Father's Day!
These guys sure love their daddy

This was on my phone from a little while ago, but I had to stick it in.  
This is how you get home from church, Fairfield style

My birthday! Yay for not being 30 yet!  Isaac made it a great day

Yellowstone

Fair Warning - Picture Overload
We had a great time at Yellowstone with my family

First stop - Bear and Wolf Discovery Center






The kids got to do the Keeper Kids program where they go hide food in the bear enclosure and then watch the bears come find it...after the kids get out.





Next day was Yellowstone Park!  I had never been to all the geysers and tourist attractions, it was fun and perfect weather!


The kids didn't love the strong sulfur smell!



pretty amazing!

Asher cannot take a picture without some kind of pose or face!  And Emry won't be convinced to take a picture if her mind is against it.





My mom gave Asher a book that he picked out fell in love with.  He took it with him to go see all the sights.  We all pretty much had it memorized about Epsilon and the Noble wolf pack

Old Faithful

 Pretending to be geysers




Getting tuckered out!





Next day we did some swimming, ate more good food, and explored West Yellowstone



waving goodbye

Had to get a picture of this rare event!


You can't see it well, but we were lucky enough to see a Bald Eagle fishing on the way home


And an elk just walking up to a school right outside the north entrance gates.

Worn out from such a fun time!

Mother's Day

Love my crazy kiddos!
