Happy 2nd Birthday Porter!!

Monday was Porter's Birthday. He started the morning off with our families tradition of breakfast in bed.

After breakfast we headed to Cabela's. Rapid Cities Cabela's is a smaller one, but the people that work their are so nice. One of the workers their showed the boys the fish then got out some worm and leeches for the boys to look at.

Playing in the rain!!

On Sunday we headed over the Rocknaks after church for dinner and it started to rain and rain and rain. So we sent the "kids" out to wash their church clothes in it. They had a lot of fun.


Reptile Gardens

After our fun at Mount Rushmore we headed over to Reptile Gardens. My boys were in Heaven!
Hattie and I with a 75 year old turte!
The Loveless fam!
I love the look on Landens face. This is how he was the whole time here. He loves his reptiles!
What is that?


The Rocknak family!
After Reptile Gardens we went and found a spot of a picnic. Yes we chose a ledge over the city. It was quite a view.

Mount Rushmore


Saturday morning we stared the day off right by eating a delicious nutritious breakfast at Mount Rushmore with on of the coolest families ever, The Rocknaks! Notice the kids with their cookies, brownies, and cinnamon rolls. Hey don't judge we are on vacation! They needed all the sugar they could get to run around the presidential trail.

Our Family at Mount Rushmore. To be honest I was a little bit scared that I would be disappointed with Mount Rushmore, but I was not. It was really neat and big. I thought it would be small.






I bought disposible cameras for the boys to take pictures of what ever they would like. They had a lot of fun with them and I can't wait to see what they actually took pictures of. I am think that with Landen's its going to be a lot of pictures of Katelyn and Emily and with Porters I think its going to be a lot of sky and feet.

Still Driving...

Let the Adventure to South Dakota begin


And we are off to Rapid City, South Dakota. Batman and Porter are excited to go on another adventure!! (As you might notice in many of the pictures Batman decided to join us on our trip.)

On our way to South Dakota we stopped in Mitchell to see the world's only Corn Palace. The kids thought it was pretty funny that there was a building made of corn. Their favorite part was the carmal corn they got to eat after their lunch.


Last Day of Preschool

At the beginning of the school year Mrs. Scott let the kids color with shaving cream. They really wanted to paint themselves with shaving cream so she made a deal with them that on the last day of school they could have a shaving cream party. Well the last day arrived and the shaving cream fun began.
