Ohh what great photos, and what great parents!!! Thanks for sharing with us.

I know you are busy, but I had a question I was hoping you could answer. We are traveling next weekend for a wedding, and will be 10 minutes from a Trader Joe's. This will be our FIRST time going to one, as we have none around us! {gasp} We are bringing a cooler and some extra money. Are there any items that I should definitely get?? I know you have mentioned a few things before, but I cannot remember what they were. You can email me at jamesbdarling@frontiernet.net or leave a comment on my blog www.amomentcherished.blogspot.com Thank you!!!

I agree with the other comments...those photos are AWESOME!!! Also, that hill looks like fun :) It's usually those spontaneous trips that end up being the most fun...never know what you're going to find.

I agree the photos are gorgeous BUT what is more precious are the memories ... your children will remember these moments forever!!!! I love adventures like these with my familt, they are so much more than money can buy!

Samantha · 4 months ago

i just HAVE to say... that pic of Ozzie, shading the sun from his eyes, watching his big brothers is absolutely ADORABLE!!!

Kiki@Seagulls in the Parking L · 4 months ago

They are great pics. But what a great mom (and dad) for letting their boys have an adventure!

Jules · 4 months ago

Your pictures are so amazing. Here in Wisconsin we usually get your weather the next day or so. Does that mean today will be that hot? I kind of hope so, we haven't had much of a summer here.

Amanda · 4 months ago

Hilarious and beautiful photos!!!! Boys will be boys, right?! We might as well embrace it! HA, look who I'm telling...a Momma of four boys. ;)

great pictures sounds like lots of fun was had by all I loved being at my grandparents farm when I was growing up

Erin · 4 months ago

How fun! If you made it to Pelican Rapids there is a HUGE Statue of Pelican that they could see :)

We are heading up tomorrow so let me know if you wanted me to pick anything up for you :)

the last picture sequence reminds me of frodo sliding down the hill in front of the black gate. Only he wasn't smiling.

i loved reading your birth stories although I cried through the girls' story. how difficult and painful that must have been. and I cringed through the stomach flu birth. no fun! I usually throw up during labor but being really sick is entirely different.

it's amazing how you can make ND look glamorous!

Eva · 4 months ago

We only live a few miles north of North Dakota ~ and yeah... it was hot yesterday but good because it has been a cool summer. You are a good mom ~ letting your boys be boys.

Kalle · 4 months ago

Spontaneous trips and climbing adventures are some of my favorite childhood memories. Looks like you had a great day.

My heart aches for little Ozzie who stood and watched so patiently! So sweet!

I love the irrigation rainbow. Wouldn't that be the coolest name for a band?

Hi Brittany -

(Not sure if you remember me, but we emailed a couple times back when we were both preggers with our twins on the twinmagazine.com message board).

I had to laugh when I saw that it was 'hot' for ND - we're in AZ and it's been over 110 since July. Talk about hot!

I have a new idea for a blog - my goal is for it to be a blessing to moms (stay at homers specifically) and for it to be filled with ideas for raising your kids, keeping life creative, making things fun, etc. There will also be posts on mom friendly workouts, keeping your marriage alive and kickin' and family friendly recipes. Check it out!

If you like it, maybe you could spread the word!? I know that hundreds of people read your blog and I'd love to be an encouragement to the masses :)

Send me an email at bethanycfox@yahoo.com if/when you have a chance to take a look. Let me know what you think!

Take care!
Beth

I have 3 little girls so seeing boys do what boys do best is always makes me want another one, of course seeing your girls also makes me want another one too ;) If you ever want to rent lil' Ozzie out, let me know. Love your pix!!! Reading your blog is a bright spot in my day!

Sara G · 4 months ago

Looks like a FUN day!! Hope you are able to go back with all the goodies they wanted to bring along!!
Take care

You take great pictures. Looks like the boys had a good time.

I have two little boys - ages 1 and 2. I spend time wondering what I'm going to do with all their energy as they get older. My husband always says give a boy a pile of dirt and he's happy. You sure did prove his point! It looks like you had such a fun day!

Tonya · 4 months ago

That is an awesome day! I bet the boys were so happy. Great pictures. They captured it so well.

Oooh, sa-weeeet! My boys would have loved that too! That lake looks beautiful!

Did Vance get a haircut??

just jamie · 4 months ago

That's the magic of the boys; they can look after each other. Flip flops and all. I love that they have that -- together.

And the Ozzie pics? Wow! Maybe my fave ever. :)

Blessedw5mom · 4 months ago

Love love loving those pictures and glad to know other moms let their boys live a bit on the dangerous side ... just something some kids need I guess.

Twinkletoes · 4 months ago

I love all of the photos but the ones of Ozzie are beyond cute! OMG - so adorable! I am loving your photography skills. How much time, if any, are you spending on post processing?

Keith · 4 months ago

Sorry we weren't there to enjoy it with them...the photos and descriptions are grand, just like your family!
