We went to my grandparents farm today and picked blackberries. We brought them straight home washed them and made blackberry cobler. I just hope we didn't get any chiggers.

We went to the dairy farm down the road a few days ago. The kids got to do some activity's, feed the cows and calfs, and see how a dairy farm works. We also brought home some chocolate milk from their little store.

Fun at the pool!

Silas and Caleb

This is where we have been spending most of our time this summer. Caleb and Silas love the water. Caleb has learned how to swim underwater, but he still has to stay where he can touch so he can get a breath. Silas just likes to jump off the side. I'm so glad we have the pool just right down the street.

Caleb's Birthday

We had Caleb's 5th Birthday party. Can you beleive he is already 5! He had a lot of fun. We had all of the neighborhood kids over and our families. He wanted a baseball theme party. We grilled out hotdogs and had peanuts and popcorn.
