Swimming Lessons

Owen has been taking swimming lessons for about 2 weeks now. This year he has decided that he can go completely underwater for several seconds, push off the wall, and open his eyes underwater. We are so VERY proud of him!!

Carson's Birthday!

Carson turned 2 on Sunday and we celebrated his birthday at Chalco Hills.
He was a bit under the weather, but still quite the little trooper.
Here he is opening presents at home.

The AWESOME Thomas cake Lane and I made.

The 4th of July

On the actual 4th of July, we went back to Omaha to enjoy the festivities with our neighbors.
Our neighborhood is awesome on the 4th of July! There are fireworks going off in every direction with everyone outside taking it all in. The boys had fun with poppers, smoke bombs, snakes, sparklers, tanks, s'mores and each other!

The New Swings

Grandma and Grandpa's backyard is quickly becoming 'Playground Central USA'.
They have just put up a playground set that has 4 levels. Awhile back, they made a giant sandbox to play in. The day before their 4th of July celebration they put up these two swings, and they have plans to finish a cute little playhouse to put up as well.
I think they are hoping for a TON of grandchildren!

The 3rd of July

Our annual 4th of July celebration was held on the 3rd this year.
The excitement this year was the horse rides.
The new neighbors from up the road raise Clydesdale horses and have a replica of a Conestoga wagon. They were giving rides all afternoon.
It was a great time!

Grandpa took the reins for a bit!
