Fun With Friends!

Yesterday was a fun time for us - the Doughty's came out for the day! It was a great way to get our minds off of waiting. :-) We always love having them out!

All the boys on one couch!

Miss Amanda the cowgirl!

David and Amanda.

Isaac helped Mr. Doughty grill the hamburgers. He was desperate to go play with the big kids on the tire swing but we distracted him with a safer activity. :-)

Dad and Mr. Doughty had a great "manly" chat as they grilled the burgers! We had to keep on warding Buffy (the dog) off as he was loving sniffing the cheese slices.

Jonathan gave horse rides, of course.

Isaac looking just too cute in the dirt!! (By the way Mom, notice his visor? He had a BLAST making it the other day. Gotta love the pink flowers.)

All in all we had a great day - thanks Doughtys for bringing the ice cream - and for LEAVING it with us!! I'm looking forward to having a bowl this afternoon!

We are still surviving here at home...and I cannot believe that my new little brother is coming HOME this Saturday! Hooray! As I type this we are having a HUGE dust storm. It's been so windy so now we have walls of dust that sweep across our property. It's so thick right now I can barely see the horses out front. Yuck!

So my big focus this week is getting the house out of chaos stage and back into normality. And making quite a bit of food ahead of time for this weekend. I want to just enjoy Joshua and not have to worry about cooking for the first day or so. :-)
