Asher has a watermelon patch over at grandma and grandpa's. This year he didn't actually plant any seeds but we had a few volunteer watermelons where last years patch was. He loves watermelon!

Heath brought home the bacon...well, the elk!
Heath and his dad went hunting. Heath had a deer and an elk tag. Glad he brought home an elk because I like elk meat much better. Talk about your all natural, grass fed meat ;)
Splash pad excitement
We went to the the splash pad a few Friday's ago. I really should have gotten a video but this picture will have to do. Noah, being the confident little dude he is, was standing in the middle of the splash pad, shaking his hind parts and singing the worst rendition of Katie Perry's Roar at the top of his lungs. Who's kid is that anyway? Love that kid!
Chores
I don't like cleaning bathrooms much less 2 bathrooms. Sooooo, we started something that should have been started long ago. My kids have always done some chores but I think I may has underestimated what they were capable of. Now they all work together to clean their bathroom and it's great!
First day of school
Noah started 2nd grade this year. 2nd week of school he got into a charter school he was on the waiting list for. I was excited, I'd been calling all summer to see if he got in. I'd just like to say that I love uniforms and Noah seems to love the school. He doesn't come home saying he's bored so far.
Asher started 1/2 day kindergarten. He seems to like it ok but it doesn't seem very challenging for him. He's on the waiting list for the charter school Noah is in but it doesn't look very promising st this point. It would be all day.
Hunting in the back yard
Heath brought home some huge boxes and drew deer and elk on them. All the boys grabbed their bows and went on a hunt in the backyard.
Hannah's 3rd birthday
I can't believe this girl is 3. She was just a tiny baby. She is cute and girly, has an attitude at times and the biggest personality. I love that girl!
Hannah's swim lessons
Hannah had swimming lessons this summer. She started out not even wanting to put her face in the water and ended with jumping off the side of the pool and swimming to her teacher. The first 5 lessons were a fight. I mean serious fight...crying, fighting to get the swimsuit on, kicking, and hitting. Now we call her our Hannah boat.
