Rosie is one

Among many other things that has happened in the first half of the month, Lillyth Rose turned one. Here's a summary. 

So this isn't a great shot, but it is funny. They are both derping. When we're out playing in the garden, we put the little people by the raspberries and they take care of themselves.

Zachary procured some used tires to make a stand for a large chicken waterer, but the tires were too big. Quinton requested that we make a tire swing. It has since fallen down, my rope isn't long enough to tie a proper knot and still be low enough the children can reach it. 

At the Tueller family reunion (which Payge keeps referring to as the "family home union") we did family and full group pictures. While we were waiting for our family's turn, I tried to catch one of these four. Chayce is practicing her teenager look. Quinton is just plain adorable. Zachary is probably writing a minecraft mod in is head. Payge is being a princes. 

After pictures, we went to the aquarium, lunch, and Scheel's sporting goods where we took this picture with the cousins. 

Quinton really wants his own truck.

Chayce fit in the tire.

Jillian attached plastic cups to the children's ankles, filled them with popcorn. Then they had races, attempting to retain as much popcorn in the cups as possible.

More popcorn racing, Zachary illustrating a dance-like technique.

During the Tueller family reunion, and her birthday, little Lillyth was sick the whole time. Here, she is back home but still not quite up to par. She tried to smile while "helping" me with work. 

The next weekend, we went to Rexburg to Jillian's parents and go to her 15th high school reunion. Here is Quinton getting a turn on a climbing wall. We had to add a rope to pull him back down because he was too light to weigh down the autobelay. 

Here is Chayce on her second run up the wall, with Payge on the right making her first attempt.

Little Lillyth and her grandpa.

The babies in our fantastic looking corn patch. This bodes well, we decided this was our last attempt on corn before we gave up on the crop. 

Have you ever seen a pirate sheep? Well, now you have. 

This little lady likes to climb all the things at the park. She also likes to go to the edges and crawl of backwards, no matter the height, and when her feet find no ground she bellars for help until she's rescued.

Jillian is out this weekend with friends from south bend. After having raspberry balsamic buttermilk pancakes, we went out to pick. This is what happens when you tell the children they have one hour to pick berries and their minecraft time will be proportional to the volume picked.
