Heavy Equipment

Cowboy Luke - he loves his cowboy hat and guns!







































Lots of baking - here the kids are enjoying a spoonful of cookie dough!
















We moved Luke to a big boy bed so we could free up the crib for baby Andrew!





















Thanks to the generosity of my aunt and uncle, the kids got a new playset! Big thanks to Pops for helping us level the thing!
