Hello Friends and Family! I know it has been a long time between posts. We've been increasingly busy around here. There are not enough days in the week anymore. I've posted a bunch of new pictures to catch you up on our summer adventures. Enjoy!
One evening we went for a drive out to Bergen for ice cream and on our way we spotted this moose. It was so neat to see.

We also saw this beaver down at a little lake we stopped at on the way home. He was busy ferrying these weeds across the lake to his home.

This weekend we are "trying" out this kitten. Dominic and Mommy have been begging for a kitty for a long time and a friend of ours had some. So we're giving it a trial go and we'll see what Daddy thinks. Dominic has named him Thomas.

He's a sweetheart! And apparently I call him that a lot because now Dominic says "Hello little sweetheart" to him all the time.
lol. this is one of Thomas' favorite spots to sleep; in Dominic's booster seat.

Yesterday we went for lunch with some friends; Susan and little Kaitlyn. Dominic really likes babies.

Here is Dominic enjoying some of Pa's home cut fries out on the patio.

Here are Hayden,
Madisyn and Dominic having a hug on Canada Day at the golf course before heading out to the festivities.

Del has been working so hard around the yard the past couple of weekends. Here he is putting in the new garden in the front. He also put in a pond, but I'll post "after" pictures another day. Oh and there's my new little car out on the street. :-)

Here's Dominic watering some plants for me while we were putting them in the garden.

This is Dominic's new sand table. He loves it! Daddy said he wanted to wear this jacket...shorts with a snow jacket?
lol
This is after his bath one night in his new summer
jammies from
Gammer Gail, all ready to read Go Train Go (it's a Thomas book), his new favorite.

Daddy and Dominic enjoying a nice cold treat one hot evening.

A sticky-sweet kiss for Mommy.

The first morning that our contractor Andy came to work on the yard, I thought Dominic was going to burst! There was a Bobcat in the back and a dump truck out front and he kept running back and forth through the house to watch them. He didn't know which way to look.

Here's some of the first destruction. It's coming along nicely now and I'll post the finished pictures soon...I hope!

The bobcat digging out the hill in the back.
Can't wait for it to be done and have a real yard!!!!

Hope to talk to you all again soon. I'll be putting up more pictures soon so you can see the finished products of both the front and back yards. And of course to keep you up to date on Dominic. Thanks for taking the time to look at out pictures. Bye for now!
