It's Fair Time!

Here are a few shots form the Iowa State Fair! Kris and Kayley joined us for a enjoyable trip to the fair! We saw lots of animals, ate some good food,and even saw a cow made entirely of butter. It was a lot of fun and good times!

Goodwill Treasures

Here is an amazing desk I found last week when Easton and I took a trip to Goodwill. I'm a regular attender to the goodwill. There's something I find very exciting as you enter the doors of the goodwill thinking about all the wonderful treasures waiting to be discovered.




If you want some inside information that I have found to be quite helpful when bargain hunting is every month there is a goodwill calendar with the special each day. These fly out the door so you have to go the first few days of the month. On this particular day it was 50% off all furniture. I happen to steal this desk for $7.00!!!


Here's where you come in. If you are a bargain hunter such as I, and have an amazing find you would like to share, post a comment and share your latest find! I would love to here your story! Happy bargain hunting!

Sippy

Easton can hold and drink from his sippy all by himself! What a big boy!

Baby Einstein

Easton loves his Baby Einstein and Sunny Patch Friends DVDs. He will sit and laugh and giggle as he watches them. He loves the puppets and bright colors of the Sunny Patch Friends. I guess it helps a little that the screen in the theater room is as big as the wall. Here's a pic of him sitting in the over-sized chair enjoying the show. What a cutie!

Ultimate Baby Fighting

Caleb and Jared were watching UFC one night. This is a show were two men fight each other for three rounds with there bare fists. The boys came up with an idea for Brenna and Easton to duke it out! The babies loved it and we happened to get a pretty good action shot!

Play date with Brenna

Easton and Brenna had a lot of fun playing together the other night. They played the piano and rolled the ball to each other. Brenna even shook her booty! It was so cute to see them play together! I think they are going to be best buddies as they grow up together!

Watch Out Boaters!

Easton can't get enough of driving the boat with Papa! Papa also honked the horn on the boat during the ride! Easton loved it!

Caleb Turns 27!

For Caleb's birthday we went to the lake! The Gardner's and the "other" Van Cleave's came and shared the day with us. We had a great day at the lake. The kidos played in the pool, we went on the paddle boat, rode jet skis, floated in the lake, went on a boat ride, and grilled. It was a great day and fun times were had by all. Happy Birthday babe!
