Library!!!

Jace was so excited to get his VERY OWN library card!


Finally found a flag to fly on the boat!


Jace getting instructions from Dad...


And Colton and Kyler helping Jace with the gates...


Brought lunch to Dad while he was tearing out trees on Jay's new farm at Highland.


Painting pictures for Dad's birthday...



We celebrated Dad's birthday with peach pie!


Connor had her first trip to the dentist!


And then we got to celebrate Dad and Morgan's birthday's together at Grandma J's!

JUNE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jace has been waiting his "whole life" to have friends over to play.  We picked a Friday in June, dropped Connor off at Barb's, and picked up his friends to come over for the day!
They had a water balloon fight, used a water slide and sprinkler, and showed off their muscles!


Lunch was pizza, and crazy because they barely wanted to sit down...and Jace even got them playing the Nintendo!


We dropped them off before picking up Connor, and Jace was asleep shortly after we dropped the last boy off!  It was a successful day!


That weekend we had a wedding to go to...


And after the wedding we skipped the reception because Jace had a pool-birthday party to go to for a classmates birthday!


We made our annual trip to the Bern playground...it was time to pick up our beef!  This playground is so cool!  Jace has become strong enough for monkey bars...and Connor is quite the chef at her "restaurant!"




We had family over and Grandma B brought water balloons...the girls knew just what to do!


Meanwhile....the water balloon fight got pretty crazy!

Sweeeeet Summertime....

Pulling out the big bottle to feed our calves!  It's quite a chore with two calves now!


Gotta keep an eye on those kitties!


Connor is turning into quite the driver..


Our strawberry patch has been phenomenal this year....it's never produced this good!





This dress....Connor and I are both in love with it!  Although she says this is the kind of dress you get married in...but it is great for twirling!


The rodeo was back in town!  Connor, Jace, and Riley had fun talking to the Rodeo Queen...



And I had to document what a big girl Connor is getting to be...
She drinks the milk from her cereal bowl...and doesn't always need a booster seat.


And she has been helping me more and more in the kitchen!


One day Kyler was here and she helped her work on her "homework."


Jace and I, enjoying a stop at Dairy Queen!


And Connor too!


Brook came over to play!


She loves our kitties!  Would make a great birthday present for her upcoming 2nd birthday!


It's rare, but Connor wanted to ride with Jed unloading hay bales!


And last, we got new waterguns so everyone was playing with them inside!  They surrounded Mom!

Trojan Day at the K

But first, we practice baseball.


And we play baseball...


 And Jed and I went to a Royals game!  It was my birthday present from Jed.  He knows the way to my heart.  :)


And then we went to a Royals game two days later!  Troy put on a Trojan Day at the K, where a bunch of people from Troy went down together, tailgated, and all had tickets in the same section.  We went and took Jace...Connor stayed home with Grandma and Grandpa J.


Max got to stay with Grandma and Grandpa J too!


The Luedke's were there too!


The kids had a blast!  Tailgating with all sorts of friends!


The Johnson crew had a great time!



We saw several of Jace's friends!  Kyler, Don, and Charli


The neighborhood gang!  Alyson, Gracie, Cayley, Austin, and Colton; Kyler, Ella and Jace!


Jace and Jay are such great buddies.


And here are a couple of my buddies!  Jennifer and Megan.


And another one of Jace's buddies, Ryan!


The game is always fun...
Jace was trying to get on the "Flex Cam"


AND, we even got to enjoy a rain delay!  It POURED rain--so we ran up under the awning and ended up next to Grandma Margaret!  Luckily we didn't get soaked, even though the field did, but then the rain was over and we enjoyed the rest of the game!
