Spring (and some of Summer) 2016

Always busy and fun times with the kiddos, especially when the weather warms and we can get outside!  Pictures really describe our Spring 2016 well!

Landscaping the top of the driveway


Thanks Grandma Denise for all your help!  Erik & I never know what / where to plant without Grandma's help!


Picnic time with Madelyn

Shootin' hoops, trying to make himself taller!

Was it just a year ago that Tyler had this crazy curly hair?! Wow!

Our first trip to AirTime (first of many since this visit!)




Yes, that's Erik...the "big kids" had just as much fun as the kiddos!




Birthday party fun with our friend Kellan.  Evan seems more excited than the birthday boy LOL!

 Gwen & Tyler, always cuties together!

Annual Walled Lake Memorial Day parade with friends!







Teaching Tyler what a selfie is!

Last day of school!!  Evan's young 5's (pre-Kindergarten) program at St. Pat's was a great experience for him.  He was ready for Kindergarten!



Wow, he grew so much in just a year!!
 Evan's best friend from St. Pat's, Grayson

 Tyler's pre-school photo; such a cute kiddo!


Celebrating my 3rd year in the local moms club.  Year #2 as President!  Love this group of ladies and raising our kiddos together!

Family bike ride (Evan biked about 6 miles with us!)


Evan wanted to set-up a lemonade stand.  He sold lemonade & veggie straws.

Before I came outside with the table for him, he set-up shop on this case of beer!  LOL!  Neighbors must have thought we were selling beer, too funny!!


Celebrating the upcoming Kindergarten class at a friends beach


Kindergarten group; class of 2029!





Ah, summer break :)

Evan is SUPER creative...turning a box into a robot!

I let Tyler get his own breakfast this morning.....

Playing with our cousin Colin

Getting in as many bike trips as we can this summer

My running stroller buddy

Happy 1st birthday to our cousin Howard!



Cousins!!  Tyler (2); Evan (5); Howard (1); Madelyn (3); Colin (1)

 Fishing on Uncle Danny's lake

Our life-long friends the Ferriman's were in town for a visit (living overseas in Europe for 4 years!).  We go wayyy back & it's always good to get a picture of our families to capture the moment!  The kids were not diggin' the photo lol!

Daddy spent 3 full days building a playground for the boys!  


Sweet Little Tyler!

Climbing trees with Great Grandpa Bergmooser 


From climbing trees to climbing all over our furniture....a common site in our house!


Sand + water = happy boys






Evan's first time off a diving board.  He jumped for almost 2 hours straight!
