Double time

 We got to spend the majority of the week at 

Grandma & Grandpa's house out on the farm. 

We had such a great time doing all things boy!

We even got to go to one of Daddy's favorite pizza places

and watch as they tossed dough and made pizzas!

Here we are sitting at the viewing bar at Fazzari's.

 Grandpa Bolland, Grandma Kathy and Uncle Matt even came too!

We were surrounded with double the grandparents,

it was awesome.

Thank you Grandma & Grandpa for an amazing week...

we DID NOT want to leave. We had the best time

and never wanted it to end! Can't wait for our next

adventure together. We love you!

(Spike missed us so much while we were gone, he slept 

in our bed all nestled up on our pillows

and blankies)! 

Barker's First Tee Ball Game

Here he is batting and zipping off to first base!

He is #11 and is the "pitcher" during this inning.

I just love how they all swarm the ball no matter

where it goes on every play.

Barker's got a pretty good arm on him...I'm claiming he 

gets it from his Mama!

Bon voyage

To all the many leaves, twigs, helicopters, and dandelion fuzz we sent down the stream as we waited for Oliver at the Vetrinary clinic. He broke a tooth, so it needed to be pulled. And while they were in there they found another one that needed to go...but he is home now and getting back to his normal self, phew! 

I spy...

Two sneaky monkeys who've found thee best hiding spot for hide-and-seek now that the leaves have filled in on the apple tree! 

Flashback

to April 2014.

Mullets and Springsteen were the thing. 

Crazy how much a difference 2 years can make!

zzz

Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for a fun-filled weekend! We're so worn out, we'll probably sleep for a week straight! (Daddy and Mommy thank you too)!!!

Jackpot!

After many attempts - it finally happens! He's trying to play it cool in front of a girl and another kiddo, but he is jumping up and down on the inside! 

Team Bolland

Everyone does their part to keep this household running. . . even the furry members! 

Snuggle Monkeys

Cold water challenge

Just before I took this video, Barker says, 

"I thought it was going to freeze my brain!"

Who needs clothes!?!

When you have the sun to keep you warm! 

'Hanging' around with our favorite fellow monkeys

This playground contraption terrifies me. The wee ones don't share my fear. 

First river 'swim' of the year

They romped around like this for over an hour...an elderly couple came and

sat at a table near by to just watch and giggle. These three were

definitely putting on a show!

Picnic in the park

With our pals; Phinehas, Atticus and Beneiah. Such a beautiful sunshine filled day!
