Picking fruit at Grandpa's

Grandpa Slack has a lot of land and so he has a lot of fruit trees.  My kids love going over and picking their own fruit.  He had peaches and plums.  We dehydrated them and they were delicious. 




Grandpa also has bunnies and chickens.

Cousin Fun

The great thing about summer is all the time we get to spend with family.  We had cousins(Brooklynn, Kaylee, and Ava) over to play one day and we made pj shirts. They turned out really cute.

Family Pictures 2014

We finally got new family pictures.  Every three years seems to be our tradition.  I would like to get them done more often but it takes so much work coordinating clothes and getting everyone ready that  it just never happens.  My sister Tami took them and I think they turned out awesome.  

It was a challenge to get all 5 looking at the camera at the same time but it did happen.

Corbin, Jade, KK, Davyn, Aidan

Trev was reluctant to have our pics taken but I would like to remember what we looked like as time goes on....he is a stud.

KK is 9 years old and turning into such a beautiful young women.  It makes me happy and sad.  She definitely keeps me on my toes but I just love her to death and don't know what I would do without her.



Aidan is 7 years old. He is my sweet sensitive boy mixed with a confident knows what he wants kind of boy.  He is such a good big brother and just loves the twins.


Corbin is 4 1/2 years old.  He is so funny and one that I am going to learn the most from as he does what he wants and you never know what that is going to be.  


Davyn was not in the mood for his picture to be taken. He is one who will let you know exactly what he wants and what he is feeling.  He is so funny and cracks me up with the things he says and does.


Jade loved getting his picture taken.  He is such a momma's boy and still needs loves and snuggles often.



See they do love each other....sometimes





This picture makes me laugh because it shows what real life is really like.  Trev put a 16x20 of this on our wall.

One of my favorite things is putting new family pictures on the wall.  It makes me happy to see how much my kids have grown.  

Here's the new wall....


I am one lucky lady!!!!

T n T Waite Ice Cream

The Waite Family has a long standing tradition of making homemade ice cream.  We have been wanting to start this tradition with our little family but never found a good ice cream machine until Andrea gave us one.  My kids were excited but I think Trev was the most excited.  We made mint chocolate chip ice cream.  It was pretty good but we will definitely be trying new recipes.

5 Kids

We don't have any pictures of all five of my kids so we decided one Sunday to try and get one.  Their attention only lasted a few minutes but we got a few of them all looking at the camera.
