Summer Nights....

Grandma D and Brightyn watching the hummingbirds cluster around the feeder on Grandma's back porch.  It inspired me to go and get a feeder for our house.........so far, it appears the hummingbirds haven't found it ! :(
Zachary fixing the leak in the trailer they bought.   Great trailer......no problems......everything works........ Yea right...... :(
We got the last row of corn (5 of 5) planted a few nights ago.  Roger dug the furrow, Mom and Dad watered it in, Mom, me, and Tagg planted, Dad covered.   The peas are coming along nicely, and the cucumbers just started poking through.  The tomatoes look wonderful. 
Inside of trailer, fan trying to dry out the water soaked wood.   As of last night, Zac had covered this all back up (after putting in insulation.  The new paneling looks great.  I'll have to get a picture of that soon. 
Tagg, learning from the Master Gardener.
Typical night at the shop (for now).
It will be fun to do a comparision picture later in the year. 
Afterwards we went down to the property to set up the machine pitch, and pitched a few balls. 
Taggie is struggling with his batting......hopefully this will help. 
Grandpa Roger giving some pointers.
Treyson trying his hand. 
It was a beautiful evening - this picture doesn't do it justice.  Tagg and I were walking back to the shop, and I pointed out how beautiful everything was.   We live in such a beautiful place.

Now I know why you have kids when you are young !

Thursday night, Kaley brought the kiddos up.  Kacey had got to Jackson and Yellowstone with her parents, and Kaley had them Wednesday day, night and Thursday day.  Payson was a little blue, and wanting his mommy.  I felt bad for his tender feelings.....but we got them in their jammies, and they went to bed so well.  I told him the story of Goldilocks and the 3 bears, and he went right to sleep in our bed. 
Next morning it was eggs for breakfast...............
Then we went to Crossfit.  Boy were there alot of kids !  I dropped of Brightyn at C.J.'s, because she doesn't like being shut up in "the pen" with all of the kids. 
After, we went back and picked up Thatcher, and brought him home to play for the day.  It rained a little, as you can tell. 
The kids LOVE to feed the animals bread, and the animals LOVE to eat it !
We had waffles for lunch :)
Jumped a little.................
Chalked up the cement..............
Later we went to T-ball.  We are the blue team.  I think that is either Payson or Thatcher on the ground in the field.  They are pretty funny. 
Crazy Ice opened up between J's and Nebco.  It is CRAZY good !
Maybe a little sour?  
Payson loved it !
Payson and Thatcher - they are buddies, but so so different. 
Then we grabbed a burger at J's - Yummy !
This morning, Payson cooked up his eggs, but we separated out the whites, because he only likes the yellows :)  He ate it all gone !
Grandpa brought the tractor over to mow the weeds down in the barnyard, he had a great helper. 
Brightyn loves to feed the goats, and Billy nibbled on her jacket when she was a little slow, and it kind of  freaked her out :)
Right after I took this picture, she threw the egg back in the basket - we only had one casualty :)
Helpin' Grandpa
We hung out at the Property while Grandpa Roger mowed the lawn.  Brightyn sure liked swinging.
Cutie Patootie
He learned to make it go !
They went down the slide, over and over. 
Zac and CJ and boys came home from Ogden, and we had a little hot dog cookout for lunch. 
It was fun !
Taggerino
Brightyn was tired and crying, so CJ walked around, and soothed her to sleep.  We layed her on the blanket, and she slept for about an hour. 
Back to our house to mow our lawn - Grandpa has so many helpers......
and the chickens got SO MUCH SCRATCH !!!!!
I posed for a portrait of sorts.......
Funny kids !
We painted a fire breathing dragon on Payson's face so he could be just like his cousins.  He LOVED it !
Mom came home about 4pm, and they were so excited :)
I certainly have a greater appreciation for having kids when you are younger......  This old grandma is sure tired out !!  The kids were so good, and slept so well at night.   We sure love them !

May ends.......June Begins.......

Such a cute picture of Payson.   His mom has gone to Jackson Hole with her parents, and Kaley has the kids (last night).  I hope they had a good night.   I will pick them up tonight after work, and have them till Saturday afternoon.  We are going to have fun !
He loves to jump on the trampoline
Can you spy what is on top of the white garage?  Look close !
Zac and CJ bought a 5th wheel trailer to live in, since their house has sold.  I think they have to be out by July 1st.  A funny coincidence - Casey Rich (Layne and Susan's son) used to own this before selling it to the people who sold it to Zac and CJ. 
They have parked it at the shop to get it cleaned and fixed up.  It is 18 years old, but in really great condition. 
I was able to snap this pic of Tagg.  He has been attending Cloverbud Camp (4-H for younger kids) at the courthouse the past two days, and has had a great time. 
That silly peacock followed me from the truck, across the driveway, into the breezeway and up the stars as I came home from work yesterday at lunch. I think he liked my pink sweater.
Last night we went over to the trailer, to see what had been accomplished.  Grandpa and Grandma had worked hard in the garden and at the property, and were pretty tired.  Thatcher of course, was entertainer to all. 
Guess what these two are playing?  POKEMON!!  They have such a fun time - usually.  Sometimes it ends in a fight, but last night they were all smiles.  (That is all of the trailer furniture taken out so it could be vacuumed and carpets cleaned)
