Ice Cream!

Of course on our way to visit Stephen's family we had to stop at the Blue Bunny ice cream shop.  





A Summer Trip to Nebraska

 Greyson has become a great traveler.  He loves airplanes and was very easy (for the most part).  Stephen and I of course have resolved that we will not sleep while we travel for a very long time.  We were both pretty tired by the time we reached Kearney, but every connect was pretty good.  Landry was by far the most difficult.  Sitting still is not one of his strong suits.


Once we arrived at the far we tried to do a little relaxing and catching up on sleep.  The Omaha cousins came out for a visit so there was lot of fun in the water.  Greyson didn't skip a beat.  He remembered everything like it had just been yesterday.  Doc was a little bigger than before, but so was Greyson.  Landry loved all the animals and fit right in.

Fun in the Sun!


The sun has been shining a lot in Kodiak!  So much so that our good friend Steve pulled out his beautiful car for church on Sunday.  Greyson was in love and red was his favorite color all day. 

It got so warm we enjoyed a little time in our pool (it was almost 70 outside!)  I of course brought out warm water to fill it up with.  



Greyson sure does love our swing behind our house!!

Stephen found some seagull eggs and of course we learned from our native friend they are great to eat.  So he wanted me to document his first finding and eating without a native's help.  


Of course we're staying busy with summer camp.  But even with the long days we love it. 
 Greyson is getting so big.  I thought he looked like such a little man in this picture.
 We have some pretty incredible gardens up here.  Here is Greyson showing off the Bok Choy. mmmmm so yummy!


Trip to Woody Island!

I'm a little late putting these pictures up, but in I think April we took a group outing to Woody Island.  Greyson loves all boats, so this was right up his alley.  


The Jones kiddos went too, which made for lots of fun.  Greyson is a little younger, but he love to try and keep up.  




On the way home they all sat in the cabin and enjoyed some snacks. 

May

One of our parents brought his bear skin with him to pick up his son.  Just a day before that bear was running around.  it was huge! 

There is no slowing down Landry.  He is a walker and eater.  He really enjoys "chewing" on rocks a lot.  We have to watch him every second otherwise he'd have the entire ocean in his mouth. 

We said good bye to our incredible pastor and his wife in May.  They are two of the most wonderful people in the world and we are extremely thankful for their friendship and spiritual guidance.  Pastor Todd was Stephen and my first pastor.  He dedicated both of the boys and even braved watching Husker games with us.  



Ms. Maragret Reed and Marcia Putney were Greyson's first Sunday school teachers.  Every Sunday Greyson could hardly wait to get out of the house and get to church.  He came home praising Jesus everyday.  They always had fun lessons planned and it's so encourage to have other people share the love of Jesus with your child.  We sure will miss these two ladies! 

So Cute!

We spend a lot of time down in our Heritage Center.  Greyson loves to ride his little bike.  It was fun when he decided to give Landry a ride.  Oh, so cute!

Crab Festival 2013

 I used to always wonder why they had so many trucks and fire engines at parades.  Then I had a boy.  Greyson loves everything about trucks.  He'd be happy with a fire engine parade every day of the week.

Landry was a little overwhelmed, but sat happily the entire time.  

After spending the morning at Crab Festival Greyson fell right asleep on the way home (we walked) 

Greyson went on one ride and had a fabulous time!  He was so cute driving the helicopter.  


He ate lots of popcorn, pop and got a huge balloon.  


A nice family picture
