Sunshine and Snowcones

I love Spring, Summer, and Fall! It is so fun when we can start going outside again. My boys have really enjoyed the outdoors lately, now that the spring wind has slown down.
Here are some fun pictures that I took of them playing this week.

I put Jackson on this, and he couldn't move anywhere, but he sure though it was great!
Who doesn't love to wear cowboy boots with your basketball shorts?
Tanner has to wear this outfit whenever he finds it, clean or dirty. These boots are about 5 sizes too big (more hand-me-downs), but Tanner still has to wear them as well.


When we came in, I introduced the boys to my favorite treat...Snowcones!
Thanks to Kenny's Mom and Dad for the snowcone maker for my birthday last fall!
Tanner loved them!
He even helped feed Jack-Jack so I could clean the kitchen- what a brother!
Jackson really liked them, but this was the face he made when Tanner put each bite in his mouth. I guess he didn't know what to think of the ice, but a spoon fun of sugar definitely helps the ice go down!

Tanner's Favorite People

If I had to make a list of Tanner's favorite poeple, it would look like this...
1. Daddy
2. Mommy
3. Grandpa
Tanner loves Grandpa. We live on the family farm, so Tanner gets to see Grandpa almost everyday when he comes to do chores. It is one of the highlights of Tanner's day.


Yesterday, Grandpa came into to take a "15 minute" nap (that is code name for 45 minutes), and Tanner wanted to lay with him. I didn't think he would stay there, but he did and actually fell asleep.
It was so cute I had to take a picture!

Prayer and Brothers

I have a really cute and fun experience! When we say prayers with Tanner, we try to prompt him with words like: Dear..., Thankful for..., Please bless... and so on. The other night Kenny says, "Thankful for..." and Tanner says, "Thankful for Lightning McQueen's eye, thankful his other eye." Kenny and I tried, but we couldn't contain ourselves. It was so funny!
Jack-Jack found a car in Tanner's room and started driving it around the house, I was so sad! He is getting so big!!

They are both wearing hand-me downs from Brendon!

Well, I got one of them looking in each picture, but I couldn't get both of them at the same time.
