Shoot Me! 17 of 52

Forever In Blue Jeans

Shoot me 17-1

Just me and my Little Man. I let my oldest son use my new camera to take this shot. As for this picture, I think the runny nose and smacking on a granola bar really captures the moment. Oh well, that's life at our house!

Shoot Me! It's time to stop hiding behind that camera of yours. Your family is missing you in the picture. So it's time to post a picture of YOU (yes, you) every Thursday with your child, your spouse, your friend, your dog, or even by yourself. Just get in the picture, you'll be glad you did! And just jump in now with 1 of 52, you can do it!

Oh… I sure do like you!

Since we live 300 miles away from a good sized town, I’ve finally figured out how to go shopping….

That’s online of course!

And I sure do like it when this guy shows up!

Moto Krazy Kids

I took the boys out to a close by riding spot this weekend. Moto Bridger 2

Our oldest son has moved up to a bigger bike, it was great practice for him.

Moto Bridger 3 

But for me….  I think I needed medication to keep my heart rate down!

Moto Bridger 

He is getting the hang of using a clutch.  Why do these kids have to grow so fast?  I have to go on-line now to find him a new pair of boots since he is out growing EVERYTHING.

Moto Colter 

And this kid, our middle son.   Sheesh, what is he trying to do?  Is he trying to give me a heart attack or what? He just laughs at me and says “Moooommmmm, I’ve been doing it forever”  and then he laughs and drives off.

And then he stops by and chats with his buddy that went riding with us. “Dude, did you see that?!  I jumped like this high!”

While we were in Billings we grabbed some delicious bagels. The boys sat at that window and watched the lady making the fresh bagels, it was so neat to watch that process. And man, I really wish I would have brought some bagels home with us.

ADRENALINE!

This last weekend my oldest son was competing at the Big Sky State Games in Billings.  I thought the Games were solely for Montana residents but I guess not.  There were hockey teams from North Dakota and Wyoming there too.  We had a 300 mile trip to get there so I got the kids out from school and we headed down early.

Big Sky 017  

Of ALL the teams playing, our team was the only one that hasn’t had any ice.  Our ice came off nearly 2 months ago.  The boys had all of about 4 or 5 minutes to get used to the ice before Face Off.   If you followed me during hockey season you’ll remember my son refuses to wear matching socks for hockey, so that’s him on the right.  Goof ball.

Big Sky 131 

I can’t even begin to tell you how nerve wracking these games are.  The intensity is amazing!  I didn’t know how much more I could take.  And I really don’t know how much longer my voice was going to keep up with all the cheering.  After the first day of games I went and bought air horns.  Waa hooo, now that was fun!

Big Sky 072

In between the games our team would hang out and watch the other games going on, or watch the Zamboni, or just be kids and have some fun.

Big Sky 071

Some of the fun that was captured on camera, I probably won’t show you…. but I’ll show my son and his friends at their high school graduation!

Big Sky 163

Good grief!  Just looking at these pictures makes my heart rate go up again.  The games were played half ice 3 on 3 with a goalie, so the speed of the game was fast.  There were no breaks for line changes so the boys learned to get off and on the ice quickly. 

More State Games hockey to come…

I got a new camera!

I am just so excited! 

On a recent trip to Billings I had the chance to do a little shopping.

I was actually in search of something else.

But when I saw that camera…

And held it in my hands…

There wasn’t even a second thought…

I just knew I had to have it!!!

Isn’t it just the cutest!

We had to take a trip to Billings for one of the boys to see a doctor there. How about that helicopter in the back, the boys really enjoyed seeing that. Hey, is that guy on the right totally tough or what!?

To be a boy

Bridger at gmas

What a  joy to be a young boy on a sunny day, a friend to play with, land to explore, rocks to excavate.

The boys and I at an unplanned trip to Build A Bear. Grandma’s famous line as we walked in…. “let’s just go in and look”. Yeeaaahhhhhh, like that worked real great.
