Catching up with cousins!

Once again we spent a lovely morning/afternoon at the ranch. This time we were joined by Kara and the boys, Andreas & Athan. We missed my brother being there, but we had a great time with the three of them!

Cocoa & Ella ... WORN out!  
In love with this picture. Drew is talking to Sunshine.  
This place is so much fun! Relaxing, peaceful, beautiful, endless entertainment, filled with LOVE. 
Boys being boys with their trucks in the sand. 


BIG day for Drew. He wouldn't step foot alone in the barn on Day 1. Now he's riding through there waving at the horses. Waving! 
Racing cars with Aunt Pat
Drew and Grandma Paca
So much fun when cousins get together! 

Fourth of July

On the 4th we took the boys to a local Fire Station where they got to spray the fire hose, take a ride in a fire truck and have lunch. The captain there is Tom Weiss, husband of Adam's high school English teacher. We always enjoy seeing them and Tom is great with the kids. Drew and Luke also loved playing with Sparklers and Pop-Its. :)

Summer fun continues!

We are still loving every minute at home! Adam and I spent 5 days in Portland this past weekend and had a great time catching up with family & friends. On Monday Adam went skydiving with his brother as anniversary gifts from the wives. They had a great time. I would be lying if I said it wasn't nerve wracking from the ground. There were a few tense moments until I finally saw the chutes open. Now that we're back in Roseburg, we look forward to more swimming, golfing and playing outdoors this week!

They LOVE summer time together!

Fun at the ranch 


The boys were so excited that the "pirates" left treasure for them :)   

The wait to jump was long. After a 30 minute training, they had to wait about 2 1/2 hours before heading up in the plane. 


Waiting patiently with Sarah. So glad we were there together! 
This is hard to see, but Adam is the orange dot on the top left. Tyler is the green chute, bottom right. 
Safe on solid ground!  Adam & Tyler both had great landings.

Drew's in this jeep for most of every day :) 

POOL TIME! 

These two managed to hook this trailer up completely on their own. They were so proud of themselves :) 

 What a great summer it's been so far!

Reunited!

For the past three days, my dear friend Lindsey and her family have been in Roseburg with us. We had a great time catching up, laughing, talking, eating ice cream out of the carton, drinking wine, and watching our kids play, play, play. The four boys went non-stop all weekend long. We created memories to last a lifetime.

Together again....Finally!
Enjoying Wildlife Safari with the littles while the big boys were fishing with their Dads and Grandpa.
Linds & Oliver checking out the animals

It was hard to tear the boys away from the Jeep!
Wyatt & Luke 
They were SO excited about the fish they caught!


LOVE this girl!
Doing a little racing with Marley & Maelin
Even the little people love Starbucks :) 
Bowling! Drew made it through 3 frames before he called it quits.
Silly Boys! There was a lot of football played this weekend. 
Cavitt Creek for some rock throwing, water splashing and playing with sticks. 
Great burgers, fries & shakes!
From playing around Dick and Vicki's, to the river, swimming, fishing, Wildlife Safari, BBQ's, and bowling...we had a blast with our friends! This is what SUMMER is all about!
