Dirt, dirt and more dirt!

 We have been working hard to get our yard ready for the sprinkler system and the landscaping.  My dad, Bart, Trey and I worked to get the dirt loaded, dumped and spread. 
 One trailer load at a time....
My dad spread the dirt with the Bobcat while Bart and I used rakes to level it out. 
 One shovel at a time....
My mom helped watch the 3 Amigos!  I am not sure who had the most exciting job?!

Westin the Climber


 Westin wanted to climb the ladder in the living room a few days ago.  We decided to see how high he would go..... 
 Now he wants to climb it everytime he can. 
Look!  I can touch the top of the garage door ;-)

Wildlife Ranch

 A few weekends back we joined the Davis crew at the Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch.  This is always a favorite trip for us.  The boys had even more fun going with their cousins. 
 Caroline, Westin and William checking out a really neat animal.  Uncle Tom knew the names of most of the exotics in the ranch.  Too bad I can't remember hardly any of the names. 
 Kate the Wildlife Girl~  She isn't really scared of much!
Caroline helped Westin feed all of the animals in the ranch.

Slow Days at Home


 We love slow days at home!  The boys enjoy spending time outside in the leftover sand, on the trampoline and working with Daddy. 

 Trey welded our new dog pen for Fletcher.  Last weekend my parents brought him back to us after watching him for a year.  Fletcher seems to like his new pen, and William has taken to him very quickly.  Trey did a great job on the pen.  He has many hidden talents!
 Trey and the boys planted a red oak in our front year last weekend.  We are just about to start getting our front yard put in.  I see a lot of labor in our near future. 
 William - 4 years old
 Westin had his own shovel and he did his best to help out with the process.
Westin - 1 Year Old

Welcome 2012

We welcomed in the the new year with family friends.  We have decided that 2012 is going to be a bit slower than last year.  Hopefully, we won't be starting any new jobs or building another house.

Christmas Continued

 More Thomas and Friends trains!






Santa was good to the boys this year.  William got the Thomas the Train logging station that he had hoped for, and Westin got a new ride on car and some other fun toys. 

Christmas 2011




I have been away from blogging for awhile. I will be posting many pics from various Christmas and winter outings.
