New Trees

We've been needing some shade trees for awhile now and it's the perfect weather to plant them.  We grabbed a few tulip trees and a ginkgo tree.  Excited about these.

 This tree has been growing whacky and is just ugly.  It was time for it to go. 

 Perfect time for Rustin to test out the back hoe -

 This is serious business-

 Not even 6 months driving the backhoe with a smile on this face, I see expensive toys and doctor bills in my future!

Green Beans

It's bean harvest time so we went to Benton City with Brian to help him with his bean trial.  Rustin hung out in the field and loved it. 

Grandad

This kid likes hanging out with this Grandad. We canned peaches the other day with him, pretty soon they'll be zipping around on that Ranger together. 

Fun at Rosebud Ranches

Ashely, Nicole, and I spent the afternoon at Katie's house- we took a ride through the farm on the ranger and enjoyed the fall weather!

These two boys loved their ride. 

Harvest Time

It was time for Rustin to get out for another tractor ride, so we visited Gramps harvesting one evening. 

 First solid food- an onion!

 He was loving playing in the dirt!  Just wait till this kiddo can move!

Devil's Spur Hike

Shelley, Sophia, Rustin and I set out on a little Sunday Funday Adventure to Mission Ridge for a hike. What a great trail this was with awesome views! 

5 months!

It is hard to believe he is 5 months old today!

Fun age!

Rustin is at such a funny little age.  He is smiley and giggly and just too funny.  So I wanted to capture a few pictures and of course I would call Jonda to do so! Love these pics she took!

This is just hilarious!

Blue eyed babe

I love little boys clothes. Who says you need a girl to play dress up! 

Great Gramma Hunter

Rustin got to see Grant Gramma Hunter and he was all smiles!

Kitchen Helper

This kid is a good little helper in the kitchen.  He likes spatulas, and basically anything he can chew on.

 We went plum picking-

 and then he helped make plum jam and plum syrup.

Craft Time with the Stagglets

It's September…how did that happen?  The Stagglets came over for a little craft time on Monday.  We made toilet paper owls.  They were easy and fun to make! Rustin had fun with his cousins. 

Try getting these 4 to smile for a photo…this is what you end up with.
