Asher Farming

Asher got to go farming with PaPa. They had to disc up the cornfield by our house. He went, because he knew it was going to be a John Deere Tractor. Asher is a John Deere boy and will only want to go in the John Deere. He had to put on his John Deere hat, shirt, and jacket and pack his John Deere lunch box. He wanted to pack a tractor, drink, and some snacks-animal crackers and meat sticks. He was ready to go.
Ready to go!

He loves John Deere

He always likes to say "Nothing runs like a Deere"


Ready to drive away and disc that field.
Of course after this day of "farming" we had to watch the John Deere movie the rest of the day. He loves that movie and plays it over and over again. He has already decided he wants a John Deere birthday party this year. So I am starting to come up with plans and ideas for that. He will love it.

Simbro Family Reunion

The first weekend of every October is the annual Simbro Family Reunion. In Glenwood and the Community Hall. This year, it seemed like not as many people. But of course, there were a lot of kids running around. The food was yummy as always. Some of the kids went to the park after dinner and had a fun time.

Alyvia and the "tall slide"

Mia and Alyvia
I tried to get a shot of a bunch of the kids, but this is the best I could get.

School Pictures

Alyvia had her first ever school pictures. Here she is on picture day in her cute little outfit. I had a few choices set out for her because it was also Dress Your Best Day for Homecoming week. I knew she would pick this one because of the lime green shirt,and of course it was her top pic. She looks so grown up in this outfit. And I can't wait to see her school pictures.



A few weeks ago we were lucky that Josh was home for the weekend of the Kirksville Airshow
We took the kids. It was a gorgeous beautiful day and could not have been better weather. Here are a few pics. The kids loved it. Alyvia was so cute taking pictures of the planes too with her fisher price camera.

Alyvia thougth these 3 were so awesome


After the show one of the stunt planes pilot was signing pictures for people. Alyvia and Asher went with Nana and waited a while in line to get one. They got to their turn and got the last picture. He asked the names and Asher said in his voice "Asher and Alybia" So the guy wrote it like "Alybia". She noticed that it was spelled wrong, but it was the last picture he had. So now they have an autograph of "Asher & Alybia".
I thought it was pretty funny and it reminded me of when Josh & I were in the Bahamas and bought Asher a little turtle thing from one of the shops. A lot of the stuff there is engraved and such for gifts and the girl asked me if I wanted a name on it. So I said sure thinking they would paint it on or something. She pulled out a sharpie marker and started writing and I was about rolling on the floor laughing. When she asked how to spell his name, I was still shocked because she was using a sharpie that I said A-S-S instead of ASH for the first letters and she wrote it. And I was gonna go ahead and buy it because it said Asser on it. But she noticed that it was cracked so it worked out great that I got another one. It was pretty funny and this reminded me of it.
