Playdate

Four silly boys came to play. They are goofy boys.

They have lots of energy + imagination.

Many crazy faces were made. Snacks were eaten. 

The hose was turned on. Clothes were stripped off. Who knows why.

Swings were swung. Trucks were drove + a slide was slid on. 

Jace, Preston, Micheal, Athen

Molly swings high : Athen strips to his underwear

 The hangout

A.B. Photography

Athen Bitner adopted our old point and shoot camera for his own.

I'm wondering if the love for photography is growing in his heart.

 I smile + laugh when I see the things that he is taking pictures of.

Preschool + Football

preschool + football a couple of favorite things in our home

this big boy started preschool, yes a couple weeks late due to our trip

but is super excited about going to preschool,  I mean school. He refuses to call it prescshool.

Mr. H joined a flag football league..

just to document, the only picture I snapped before both my babes fell asleep in my arms.
