Our Story

Ben and I met in 1996, began dating in 1999 and married in 2001. Now 20 years and 2 children later, we have returned to where our life together began. Ben works for the Federal Reserve and I have the privilege of staying home with our two precious boys.

Last of July Catch Up...Caden Goes to the Farm & Ethan Goes Camping

Toward the end of July, Mommy and Caden made a trip to the farm to see how everyone was doing. With Jacob down for a visit with Aunt Cindy and Callie right up the road, he had plenty of cousins to play with. The night that we arrived, Aunt Cheryl was at Granny and Grandpa's as well so she read the little cousins a story.
 Caden got plenty of attention from Granny and Grandpa and for the first time was not afraid of the farm vehicles.
 Since Ben & Ethan were also out of town, Lucy got to come with us and she was in absolute heaven!
 Grandpa even made sure that Caden got to see the gator that lives in the pond
 And Granny let him drive her tractor
 While we were under the shed checking on the boat, Caden found an old wagon and it was his best friend for the weekend. It went everywhere he went. If there's anything you need to know about Caden, it is that he LOVES to push and pull anything that has wheels!
 While we were at his house, Uncle CJ took out his remote control helicopter to entertain Caden one night. He thought it was hilarious to watch it fly around the room.
 And Caden did his best to talk Uncle CJ into letting him take the lawnmower for a spin, but both he and Mommy said that was a No Go :-)

Meanwhile, Ethan and Daddy spent the weekend fishing and camping with Aunt Donna and Uncle Roger and from what I heard he did a terrific job!

 Catch of the day
 Climbing on logs is always an adventure
 A more relaxed way to fish :-)
 And the best part...making s'mores by the campfire
 Look at that face!

All in all, everyone had a great weekend!
