My favorite time of day

Life is crazy with 4 and 2 year old boys. There is just no getting around it. There are a lot of hectic times. A lot. Lots of screaming and fighting and arguing . But right around 4:30pm every day, things just seem to settle, to stand still. We are home after picking Eli up from school, the boys have their afternoon snacks, and we settle in on the couch for 30 minutes of cartoons. For those 30 minutes I snuggle my boys, kids their little heads, breathe in their smells, and thank God for all that he has blessed me with. After that things go back to being crazy and the boys run outside to play and scream and drive me nuts. But I sure do love 4:30 :)

Freak Alley

[May 3, 2014]

We took a trip to the Boise Farmers Market and found our way to Freak Alley. I had heard about it but never been. It's an alley in down town Boise that is covered in graffiti artwork. Eli loved it and we took the opportunity to take some awesome pictures. Dylan was very ready for nap time so he stayed in the stroller.

Consistency.....

I am going to try my hardest to be more consistent with the blog to keep family updated on what our boys are up to and how fast they are growing! Stay tuned for some catch up posts!

April and May

April 2012

April was a busy month for us. Jakes Mom (aka-Grandma Sue) came to visit for Easter, my sister had her baby, and Jake and my dad started construction on our shed. All in all in was quite an eventful month.

Jumping Back In The Saddle

The last time I blogged was when Eli was 3 months old....he's now almost 2 years old! So, its been a while. But I was thinking about this blog and I pulled it up on the computer and found that I posted about things I would have otherwise forgotten. It really made me want to start it back up. In my sleep-deprived state, I forget a lot of things but I don't want to forget anything about my kids. So here I am, jumping back in the saddle :)

There is no way to catch up on everything, but I think I will start by posting a picture from every month we've missed. Here comes a massive photo dump.......
