Prinkler fun


As Mack calls it...
She loves running through the sprinklers!

MOJITO!!


Tim has perfected Mojitos! We had the neighbors over as well as Josh and Jodi to taste his all famous Mojitos!! We did a taste test the night before on a walk downtown. The stroller cup holders came in handy. If you would like to to see a demonstration on how to make a mojito, go to
I should get paid for advertising...enjoy!
I forgot to mention, we actually grow Mojito mint in our backyard. Yes, there is actually a mint called Mojito mint! Yum, yum!

Congrats to Doug and Heidi!





Yea for Doug and Heidi! What a beautiful bride, the groom wasn't so bad either :) The other picture is Tim and I, Peter, Cat, Teresa, and Mike Miller. Good Ole Flint Powers was in full force!

Mack and me


My shirtless girl!! She loves hanging oucht without her shirt, no idea why! Notice the mint chocolate ice cream cone. She certainly is my daughter. Loves the ice cream, not so into the cake!

Potty for Mack, Crying for Jack

Mackie's officially wearing underpants!! She has decided she doesn't want diapers anymore and is doing great. She only wears them at night and for naps when she takes them. It's jelly beans people, give your kids jelly beans. That's what did it for her. She loves her jelly beans. Although we are done with them now, it did do the trick. She even sits on big potty's and everything. Ahh, three years ago, we'd never would have believed we'd be so excited to see someone use the potty. Way to go Mack...we're so proud!

On the other hand, our little Jackson has had a really rough few days/weeks. All he does is cry. He cries 75% of the day. I called the doc today and they are convinced it's just his teeth. Who knows, he thrusts his head back and just screams all the time. We think one thing and then another. We just hope he gets happier soon. We feel so bad for the little guy, and mom's patience is running thin :)

Little bits of the weekend!







The whole Springs crew, Gramma dancing with Uncle Tim during the entertainment, little Jack-man, Anthony caught with the pink scooter. Griff and Mike, Tim and Mackie snoozing in Mack's bed. Pa with the three little babies.

4th of July Crew

Here's the crew on Fourth at Canadian Lakes. I must say with 15 kids, it was far more relaxing than I ever would have imagined. Good times, good stories!

Four Generations

We went and visited Tim's Grandparents on Thursday and had a really nice visit!!

Ms. Thang


The title speaks for itself. She is a sass and I love it!
