Horsin' Around

Great fun at Henry and Hope's riding lesson on Saturday. Cowboy Chris went all-out to ensure both kids had a blast! They practiced barrel racing, capturing flags and Henry even held a steady trot (while giggling heartily the whole time!)

My only concern...will our daughter really want a pony???

All Boy!

Henry loves him some back hoe front loader!!!

Henry: "Mom, I like stay-at-home days better than school days."
Diana: "How come?"
Henry: "Because we get to cuddle more."
Diana: "Why do you like cuddling?"
Henry: "Because it makes me feel connected to you."
Diana: "Yeah, me too."

It doesn't get better than this!

The Faces of Joy (and Hope...)

I get so exhausted these days as full time working mom...trying to ensure everyone's needs are met. At times, I want to run off in the middle of the night to some fancy retreat center, change my name and luxuriate for a few weeks...but oh how I would miss these little faces!!!!

A Workin' Man

Henry and "Uncle" Jeff getting some things done around the house...

Check out the new gravel pit!!!

Twomommarama!

What an amazing camping adventure -- many two momma families and our kids all enjoying the amazing beauty of Icicle Creek Canyon! With hope, it will become an annual tradition!

Our Own BC Fan Club
