The Baker's

The Baker family didn't know it, but we totally love sweet cherry season here. What a treat! We have enjoyed picking, eating, freezing, and making fruit leather with cherries. We have also enjoyed sharing cherries with those we go see. Who knew!

Trip to McCall for birthday/anniversary celebration:

Me and Cole with my lemon meringue birthday pie. 

Enjoying our beautiful niece, Sammy. 

Nick and Kim came to the cabin to watch our little men so that Tad and I could have a day to ourselves. We had so much fun. We went on a stupid Ranger ride and it was FREEZING, but it was fun just being with him. Then we went to a hot springs, had treats in downtown McCall, and a lovely kayaking time.  It was great and such a treat since we usually have to pay a lot of money to leave our kids of just a little tiny bit. The cost of living next to no family I guess. 

                                      Got to love Nick teaching them to fish. 

 

We love ourselves a ranger ride. 

Baby screaming on the way home. We were a little crazy! 

Next trip for the Smith Family Reunion in Ashton, ID

A lovely visit in Iona with my wonderful friends from the street we lived on. I missed these special ladies!

4th July Parade in Ashton, Idaho. It was fun. 

I'm super in love with giant bubbles. Yes, me, the lady who just turned 30! They are so cool I brought them to share at the family reunion. 

A little piñata action. Luke and Austin loved all of the fun kid festivities. I didn't get a picture of their bingo loot, but man are they still cherished! 

My men all snuggled. I love them!

 A little sneak peak of our family photo shoot. We actually we have to redo our family picture so it will be a while. The darn picture wasn't in focus enough to blow up for our wall…bummer we were all smiling.  However we got some great individual shots!

Me with my beautiful frame that my siblings gave me for my birthday. I have wanted the Baker sign that Smitty and Markie brought me from Hawaii framed for the last 3 years. I'm so excited it is framed and looking good on my wall. 

I GREW these! We love love love our little garden. It is such a joy to us. The boys and I check on everything growing everyday.  

Uncle Smitty gave the boys these cool wood kits to build a helicopter and submarine. It was a huge hit with my builders. Of course they needed to add color. Such creativity we are fostering in this home. I hope it pays off someday.

I love this silly creature here. This is how he went to swimming lessons this week to watch his brothers. For the love look at that bed head! 

Here is the boys with their good friends that live behind us. They ask everyday to pick a carrot and eat them. The joys of a garden. I can't resist letting them.  

  My lilies! Oh how I love me a lily. Luke and I love plants and we are just enjoying these lilies blooming. Here is Luke and I smelling them. 

Um that baby is rather loved at this house. 

Tad's fathers day present. If only he thought it was cool….
