Country Livin'

So, as I have mentioned before we live out in the middle of no where...okay, we have some neighbors, but pretty much. We are adapting to the country life. Rich's dad has two acres, so my kids are loving the freedom they have to just run around with the dogs and explore. Their favorite thing to do is to feed/play with the dogs. Sometimes I have to give Jonah two baths a day because he will come in covered (and I mean covered) in dirt or sand. It's a great life out here for little boys.
This is half of the deck, the rest wraps around the rest of the house. Dad, come visit me, this is right up your alley:).

This is one of the views from the deck...most of this is their back yard.
See this little bridge Julien is crossing here (above), well that same day Jonah was crossing it and fell in the hole on Julien's left......this is the hole (pictured below) where I found poor little Jonah face down screaming crying. He came out with just a little scratch on his arm...it mainly scared him. It may be hard to see how deep it is.

But see, he is fine!

  1. I'm feeling your pain sweetheart with regards to being there for Reeses. I can't wait to hold Avery and hug my daughter who is now a mother.
    The new pics of the boys are fantastic and they look like they're having a blast being boys in the country. That's something I was never able to do for you and your sister. I know how the freedom the boys are feeling being able to play in the dirt and run around in the outdoors. I spent most of my childhood on my great-grandpa's ranch and it was wonderful. I can't wait to get out and visit you. Love you....
