Play Time!




Noah thought he was so funny pulling all the towls out and sitting in the drawer! And the boys loved playing in the pop up tent from Nana with their friend Kaden.

Finished Project!

We are so excited it is finally done!! We have to still do some landscaping around it, but other then that it is ready to be used :)

Building the Shed

Our summer project this year was building a shed in our backyard. Neil decided to build it all from scratch. It has been a LONG, time consuming project! Lucky for us we have wonderful family and Friends who have been a huge help to us. Neil’s dad, mom, and brother spent many hours over at our house working! It is going to be great for storage and all the kids outside toys.




Babysitting Kids




I have been babysitting Maisen and Kaden for a little over a year and Jorden (maisen's sister) on and off during that time. I recently got a new job at praire life fitness so I am no longer watching the girls. Kaden comes about once every other week. The boys love playing with the kids so it has been hard not having Maisen here everyday. They are great kids and payton has become good friends with them. Luckily we can still get them together for play dates:)

Our Dog




We got our dog Apollo this past May. He is about 7 1/2 months old now. He is such a good dog with the kids. He knows how to play with each of them. He will run around and chase Payton all over and then run over and give Noah kisses on the back of the neck. The boys just love him! He loves to lay next to Neil and he follows me all over the house. He is a great addition to our family.

Noah Walking!

We wanted to post a video of Noah walking. He has taken off in the last couple days. He loves walking when everyone is looking and cheering, especially big brother Payton! He likes practicing his balance standing up on Mommy and Daddy's bed. He is getting so big!!

a few more wedding pictures

Wedding fun






The boys and mommy went to a friends wedding in Iowa last weekend. Payton had so much fun dancing he was up till midnight! Noah fell asleep during the dance and slept through half of it! We went with Nana, Aunt Nicole, and Aunt Katrina. It was so much fun to see all of our friends from Iowa.

More horse pictures



Cow Boys!





We took the boys out to see Dakota last night. They had so much fun riding. Both of them did great. They are our little cowboys!

Noah Patrick



We took the first two pictures of Noah right before his first birthday. The other one is at his birthday party opening up his gifts. He is such a happy boy! He always smiles for the camera.

Payton James

Here are some pictures of Payton. We were getting ready to go ride uncle Mark's horse Dakota. He was such a ham he kept smiling and saying "cheese" so I told him to make a mad face and he did! It was so cute:)


Our Family

This picture was taken at my mom's house this past Christmas. So it is a little old, but we rarly get good family pictures with two little boys!

Welcome!


Hello everyone!

So we decided to enter the world of blogging! We thought it would be a great way to share pictures and exciting events with friends and family. To share a little about us, for those of you that we have not talked to in a while. Neil and I have been married for a little over 3 years now! We have two beautiful boys, Payton is 2 1/2 and Noah is 14 months. Neil is a controller for a trucking company and I teach water fitness at a local gym. I only have to work about 10 hours a week, so I am able to be home with the boys for the most part. We are having a great summer and are not looking forward to winter:( Oh well i guess thats what you get when you live in Nebraska!:) Have a great day!
Neil and Kayla
