Construction at the Evans' house!

Well there is a lot going on at the Evans' house right now! We are putting in a outdoor wood burner to heat our house--very exciting to only have to use wood for heat. The past several years we have used our corn burner and propane--getting WAY too expensive and messy! Jackson is in heaven helping his Daddy work:) Gavin just watches with excitement. Man I need a girl around this house BAD!

Playground Fun!

Tuesday night Jill and I took the boys to the LV school playground--they loved it! I got some great pictures-here are a few of the boys enjoying themselves. I thought I would throw in the last photo-Jackson is still the best big brother ever to Gavin!

Natalie's Wedding

Last Saturday my good friend Natalie got married in Troy, Ohio! What a beautiful day and wedding--Nat you looked AMAZING!!! Here are some photos of the day--enjoy:)

County Fair!

The last week has been filled with fair fun! I guess you could say our family is ALL about the fair:) We take my parents camper and stay most of the week---eating yummy food, riding rides, visiting the animals ALOT, and getting some adult fun in thanks to my parents! Jackson really enjoyed the fair this year-he showed his first animal on Sat. night-a sheep! He had some help due to his age, but really took it seriously. Josh and I took him to the truck and tractor pulls and he LOVED them--he still is talking about them(Grandma Jill kept Gavin-thanks!) I entered 3 photos and as you can see 1 of them got 1st place! Gavin liked to see all of the people and the lights at night, but overall had no interest this year:) I am sure next year both boys will be running all around keeping us busy--fun fun! It is sad to see the fair and summer go, but the fall time always is one of my favorites!

August Fun!

Look at those faces!

New Pictures & 2 new things to share...

Jacks is and has been for the past two weeks going #2 on the potty!!!
Gavin is crawling as of Sunday-Look out Jacks!:)

New Camera!

Thanks to my parents, Josh and Jill I got a new camera that is AWSOME! I have been wanting a new one so I can quit having to fix red eye..love those light eyes:) It takes color of corse but also b/w and sepia...very clear and amazing zoom! Here are a few I have taken since I got it Thursday...its my b-day gift but I got it early:) I can't stop taking pictures...stay tuned for more.

Fishing With Daddy

Josh has been waiting since Jacks was born to take him fishing-so last night he did just that and Jacks LOVED it! He caught a lot of fishies. Gavin was not impressed at all-more into the feeling of the rough grass:) The last picture I just threw in because I love it.

Summer Fun!

Update on the boys:

Jackson is really amazing us with how smart he is and how quick he picks up on everything! He had his first pre-school evaluation this past week and the worker that did his assessment was very pleased with him-50% of the tasks he performed at his age level and the other 50% he was at a 5 year old level!!! It was a very shinning parent moment! We just hope Gaving follows in his footsteps:) He is completly potty trained at the sitter and still working hard to go on the potty all of the time at home! He is really enjoying his summer--loves the campground! Oh ya Jackosn is the BEST big brother to Gavin-we are so happy they get a long....for now:)

Gavin has finally learned to sit on his own-we thought we were always gona have to be behind him on the floor:) He has 4 teeth and is into everything he can put in his mouth! He is eating more and more new things-loves puffs. We have decided that he is going to be our big boy-weighing in at 20lbs and 27in. @ almost 8 months. He is starting to say DaDa--working on MaMa:)

I have always wanted a girl from the time I can remember, but I would never trade being a mother of boys for nothing!

Day at the ZOO with Grandma!

Last Thursday Jill and I took the boys to the Ft. Wayne Zoo and they (well jacks) loved it:) It was a perfect day for the zoo-nice and sunny but not too hot. Hope you enjoy the photos!

This Farming Thing is Hard!!!
