Growing more than just strawberries...

We are thrilled to announce that we are due with baby #3 Dec 15th!
(Benjamin will turn 4 and Hannah 2 in November)

Hannah is excited to be a BIG sister!

Our Date-night group spent a weekend on the lake with all 8 kids (and 2 on the way)
I would call it more of an adventure than a vacation...but a ton of fun!

Beautiful view of Heber Springs in AR

We spent most of our time out on the lake. 
All the kids did great!

Captain Brad

The crew



Picnic on a dock

Tug-a-war with noodles

Ladies relaxing on the tubes with kids

It's hard to get a serious picture with these two goobers

Back at the lake house for dinner...

and smores...

...and playing with fire
(Colton looks like he is running for his life)

All cleaned up and ready for Bible time

Big kids slept in this cool loft area

Every good trip ends at Cracker Barrel!

While we were gone I became an AUNT : )
Meet my precious nephews Henry and Oliver Finfrock

We prayed daily for these boys and God truly showed off! 
Born at 36 weeks they were healthy enough to stay out of NICU and go home 2 days later. 

I'm a proud Auntie V!

They are growing fast but still small enough to hang out in the same swing.
They are identical twins : )

Fun girls' night making cute door hangers for summertime

For Mother's Day Frank finished the back yard and play set area so we could spend more time outside. 

We love the back yard now!
8 Kids and a Rooster...sounds like the next big TLC hit

Frank finishing up a long day of laying stone
Looking Good!

Planting seeds for our green bean tee pee

First strawberry of the year!

Summertime fun has officially begun

Love hearing these two laugh and play together

Summer rain showers = puddle jumping

Hannah's revenge...bahaha
I'm sure the people driving by thought I was mother of the year : )

Looking through his "knockers" (aka binoculars)
Trying to nail that one down...

Hannah and Colton at the Botanic Gardens
