Daddy's Day!

Daddy chose
a day
at the lake
for his
big day.
It was a typical
Kansas
windy day
so we opted 
to leave the boat
and ourselves
on land.
We 
had
wonderful
time
playing ball....


Going on 
treasure hunts....
eating
eating
eating...
swim
swim
swimming...
skippin' rocks...

splashing Daddy...

running and screaming...

and hiking.
We love
our Daddy.
He is
more than words
on a blog
can ever say.
love, the rockinryans

Harvest 2012

The time FINALLY arrived...
the one that they have been 
waiting for all year....
Big Guy has not stopped talking about
his memory is amazing!
So, when it came time to 
head on out to the farm,
I had some very happy boys!
He insisted on bringing 
his own tractor
to help out.

No break time for Uncle Scott


or Daddy!
These next two
photos were taken
by Big Guy....
yuuummmm.....
No boring cold sandwiches this year,
Big Guy insisted on making
homemade pizza roll-ups,
salad
and chocolate chip cookies.
He was really looking forward to the meal,
but once out on the farm,
the little guys neither one ate
a thing,
too excited I guess!

Time for a ride!
I think Big Guy
would be fine on this thing
all day long.
Which is funny,
since he can't sit still
any place else.
Uncle Scott made the comment
that most kids grow up never
seeing anything like this.
He is right.
And I feel so lucky and proud
that we are a
farming family.
I know the boys naturally love
to be out there,
just like their daddy.
And I know that through this,
they will learn
responsibility,
respect
for nature, life and work,
a good work ethic
and
most important,
receive a closeness
with their family
that most kids will never know.


Big Guy got to bring home
his own wheat~
the wheat he drove the combine for,
and brought in himself.

Baby's turn!
I didn't know if he would enjoy it
as much as Big Guy.
But he did,
he loved it!




Happy Harvest!

Its a Match!!

I never thought
I would be one of
THOSE 
moms~
ya know~
the ones that dress their kids
alike?
But I realized its
A. Easier
and 
B. ADORABLE!
Now, getting them together
for a picture
in their 
adorableness...
That's an entirely
different
ball game!

Did you know that they also match their daddy?
Seanie is taking after
Daddy in the break-dancing skilz!
(Ok, so maybe Daddy doesn't
actually LICK
the floor.....  :)
Their clothes aren't matching,
but their happy spirits 
this morning were!


Why were they so happy?
Because we were off to Church,
then Daddy 
coming home
soon!
We missed him tons
during harvest!

Buddies

Waiting for friends...
It has been so much fun
to watch this foursome
grow into great friends!
Relaxing holiday....
this guy prefers the table 
over the pool!

Petting Zoo~ 



Those were some crazy goats!
Even our crazy kids
were shocked!


A day at the gym,
where my boys
made me SUPER proud
to be their mom.
At pick-up
the provider
told me
"They are the best behaved boys, ever!"
They discovered the snack-bar
after that!!
Having a great summer!
