You know you are a mom to boys when...

...the frog stops kicking!

Ireland

Jeremy and I were fortunate enough to be able to head to Ireland for a week. He earned this trip as a reward for his performance at work. I am very proud of him and thankful for all that he did so that we could go.
I am a bit of a picture taker. So, instead of sharing my 426 pictures of the trip, I thought I would just share my favorite ones. Here is my perspective of Ireland:














You know you are a mom to boys when...

...you spend the morning after fresh rain collecting worms with your son!


Here is Jack gathering his new slimy friends.

He would load them up into his trailer, along with other fun things we found along the way.

And take them for a ride until he spotted more worms on the ground, just a few feet away. He would then stop and collect those too!


Unfortunately, there were a few casualties. Poor worm!

Summer Nights

We are just loving summer nights this year. It has been so beautiful out. And might I add that the bugs have been minimal. We are enjoying so much time on our front porch, in the yard, and all around.

Mitch has learned to drive...

Jack LOVES to give his brother rides

And Jack learned how to ride his tricycle! He is much now than when we first shot this video. He has since mastered it and can even maneuver in and out of tight spaces. He especially loves to go backwards like Mator!
