Riding Cinnamon Biscuit

I just absolutely love the little pony that mom got for the grandkids! She's just the right size for the them!

Thuernagle Famuily Renunion in Montpelier

The first night, we roasted marshmallows which is always a favorite for the kids. It seems for the adults a treat that is pure sugar that's melted is not so appealing these days. Here is Josh and Joey waiting anxiously for their yummy treat.Andrew stretching with all his might to toast his marshmallows.
On Saturday we went to Bear Lake and had so much fun! We blew bubbles, built sand castles, threw Frisbees, exfoliated our skin with the wonderful sand, and just basked in the sun! Andrew sure had fun with the bubbles!
Olivia was amazingly good at blowing bubbles!

Doesn't Grandma Ruth look great!!
Abby had so much fun putting sand all over her!
The boys had a fun time shooting all sorts of guns. Namely 22s, pellet gun, and shotguns. They also shot bows.

A Mother's Proud Moment

For the last couple years I have been pleading with Joshua to try riding his bike without training wheels and finally he decided to give it a try. I think it was the fact that Joshua saw his little brother Andrew give it a try and it was even on Joshua's bike. And make sure to watch the whole thing because Caleb was just being Caleb at the end of the video...so funny!

Happy Father's Day!

We had a fun day for Father's day! It started off with the boys secretively putting on their gifts for their dad. We all huddled in the mud room quietly while dad was still sleeping and practiced saying "Happy Father's Day" in unison. Then crept into his room and woke him up with a nice surprise! The boys had a hoot and Jon woke up with a smile!Jon's favorite baseball team, the Cincinnati Reds!
A new fishing shirt and a new tie!
This shirt Andrew is wearing was just too perfect to pass up. It says "You don't hunt? I see no point in talking to you!" Jon loved it!
Here is my handsome husband with his 3 handsome boys...well one pouting in the corner anyway. It's a little ironic Josh didn't want to take a picture because earlier when he was wearing dad's new hat he asked me to take more pictures of him... Kids!

Boing! Boing! Boing!

This last monday we had a nice surprise...Aunt Katie and Abby came down from Idaho Falls! So we had a last minute bbq with them and Uncle Clay and Aunt Elizabeth. The most amusing part of it all was watching Andrew and Abby on the trampoline. Andrew was bouncing Abby and she was having full on belly laughs. It was so cute! Of course nothing tops the "trampoline hair"! Since Andrew has a buzz cut you couldn't see it on him, but Abby's was in full display! The picture below doesn't even give it justice. :) Thanks Katie and Abby for coming over and hanging out with us!!!
