Enjoying each moment

We have been so busy lately with the new house. It is just over 30 miles to the new house from where we live now. We have been making lots of trips to Lowes and back down to the house. I have made sure to take some time just to enjoy the kids. They LOVE being out at the farm or just outside.

Each night when they take a bath this is what the tub looks like when they are done. 

They are so filthy at the end of each day. I'd say it's a sure sign of a fun day.

Lance found an old skateboard at the new house so he has been trying it out. He's getting pretty good at it.

I always make sure he has plenty of protection on. He takes some rough falls, but he always jumps back up and gets back on. 

Lexie loves her new bike. She prefers to take a hike or run though. 

How cute is this picture of Lance helping her get her protection gear on?

Friday was pretty windy outside so we decided it was a good day to visit the museum. The museum is part of the University of Alaska Fairbanks and is located on top of a huge hill. I love the view from up there.

We always have so much fun at the museum! 

Saturday we had tons of fun. Our town always has so much going on. 

First we visited the Farmer's Market. I had no idea it would be so huge. There was a lady who had her pottery wheel there making things. We all loved watching her! We were admiring some of her work when Lance dropped a lid to one of the pots. So we ended up buying the pot. They did give me a discount so I only had to pay $65.

It reminded me of the time when I was a kid, probably Lances age, and we all went with my grandma Yount to a flea market. I wasn't watching where I was going and knocked over an ugly Indian portrait. My grandma had to pay $100 for it! 

After Farmer's market we went just down the road to the fish and game fun day. They had a huge fishing pond set up. 

If you caught a trout with a tag on it then you won a new fishing pole. The fish weren't biting though. 

One of the kids favorite things at the fun day was the state troopers airplane. They got to crawl inside and the trooper showed them how everything worked.

We had a super fun day but the best part was Saturday night when we got to pick up daddy. He had been gone since Monday to a gold mine in Japan Hills. We are super glad to have him back home!

Sunday we spent the whole day hanging out with daddy. We even did a little fishing at the creak by our house. It was filled with fish but we couldn't get any to bite. We had lots of fun anyway. 

That's what's up lately. Just enjoying all the sunshine, beautiful weather, family, and getting some work done on the farm.

God is good.....All the time!
