A Couple of Farmers!

Here is Benson and Ben doing some tractor work. Benson loves helping with farm work -- especially if it involves getting to ride on the tractor.

Yes, that is Benson in the bucket of the Tractor -- if he can't push the buttons on the tractor, then he might as well play in the dirt on the tractor!

This is better than rides at the carnival!

Dirty Work

I definitely have 2 "ALL-BOY" boys! They both love to be outdoors, eat rocks & dirt, and get filthy dirty! Here is Benson and Packer outside playing together while me and Ben work on our sprinkler system. Hopefully next year we will have less dirt in our clothes, shoes, tummy's, and on our faces!

Summer Stuff

Okay, I know you were all DYING to see me in a swimsuit. Uh, EW! Sorry. But we went to the COOLEST pool. It's by my folks home in PG. This old couple is loaded and have this sweet pool, complete with waterslides and all. One of the waterslides is so -- INTENSE that you have to wear a helmet. And it's a good idea to wear a life jacket as well... not because you'll drown... but to prevent injuries. It probably doesn't sound fun.. but it is. I took some pictures of Ben going down the big slide, and some of Benson going down the kiddie slide, but my camera ran out of batteries and so the pictures I took were blurry. Ah nuts. But that's the story in a nut shell. And all we have to show for it is me holding packer doing nothing. Sweet eh?

Packer LOVES to play in the sink. Weird. But, it keeps him happy and occupied while I cook dinner, or clean, or something in the kitchen. Try it.

Best of Brothers

Benson & Packer love playing together. Sometimes Benson beats on Packer, sometimes Packer beats on Benson. But in the end, they're still best buddies.

Benson & Packer are making the most of the summer sun by playing in a gardening wagon, playing with Grandma's dog, Koda, and ... well... figuring out how to pick their noses. Busy, busy, busy.

Just Keep Walking

Daddy & Benson taking a walk on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Life is beautiful... It helps to have a beautiful family!

Hiking Part II

You'll probably spot Benson's sexy Spiderman undies here. You probably wish you had a pair. I found them at Wallies.

Daddy the Pack Horse. Keep up the good work daddy!

Benson got soaked playing around the waterfall, so on the hike back, Daddy stripped off his pants and let him hike European style -- with just his undies. Ha ha. And Benson LOVED it.

"I wannu see the watafall!" Benson complains... so we packed up and made a FHE out of it, inviting aunts, uncles & cousins to hike to the Grotto Waterfall in Payson canyon.

Summer Hiking

"I wannu go to the Mountains" says Benson. So, we went on a Hike to the Pine Forest in Payson canyon. Both Benson & Packer loved it. Benson went on foot and Packer enjoyed it on back of daddy. Benson only biffed it every 10 minutes and didn't cry once (apparently he got his balance from his mother). If he's outdoors, he's happy !
