Hoorah for no mosquitos!

I got to spend last Friday in Camden with the boys along with my friend and her 2 girls. Such a fun day!

The 3 Trailblazers!

Resting after we made it to the end of the trail.

 One of the benefits of having boys....

 Graem was stuck in the 'Graem Pack' during the hike but he let loose on the playground!

Only thing missing from the day was Dad who was stuck at work - looking forward to doing it all over again with Eric.

A Bunch of Monkeys!

We were able to sneak away for a last minute trip to the Sioux Falls Zoo! And to top it off, HyVee was sponsoring a free lunch (which is a big deal when you have 5 mouths to feed). Thanks Tanta Megan for spending the day with us!

The boys are into Gnomio and Juliet (the movie) so the flamingos were a must see - kind of their second favorite character in the movie (of course the tractor size lawn mower at the end of the film is their favorite).

Waiting for the train ride!

Skol!

We got to spend the day with the Kluwer Family from Denmark! Had a wonderful day in Tyler visiting with friends and family!

The Whole Gang! out at the Farm!

Harald (Alafar) with Jorgen (right), Fredrick (left standing), Ida Marie (middle) and Anna Sophia. Harald's grandparents were cousins to Jorgen's great grandparents (I think that is how it goes...) 

Oh.....Aunt Keriline! (as Jack would say)

Yeah - we got to spend two entire weeks (one week in June and another week in July) with Aunt Caroline! She spoiled the boys rotten with trips to the park, the pool, a parade, the movies and chasing them around the backyard. Here are some pictures of our trip to the Children's Musuem in SD.

Tinkering in the Garage....

Jack up in the clouds!

Roaring at the Dino!

Graem - Cooling off in the stream

 Forget the stream, Jack headed straight to the pond at the end of the stream.

The end to a super FUN day!

Of course I have to sneak in a picture of me with Aunt Caroline!

Hello Again!

It has been awhile! We have been busy enjoying the summer......here are some pictures of fun times at the lake - Enjoy!

Fun with our lake friends!

 We LOVE lake babies! Eric and Graem with Andrew and Jade

Graem thinks swimsuits are overrated.

Only these Bly boys can get Bfar and Bmor in the lake!



Megan + Luke = LOVE

The wedding was a success! Megan and Luke are married off and enjoying a honeymoon in Mexico! Here a couple pics from the big weekend!

Aiden and Jack

Aiden and Owen (Luke's nephew)

A special thanks to my Mom and Dad who flew up to MN to attend the wedding and care for their very active grandsons! With Eric and I in the wedding - they were a HUGE help!

Hope everyone enjoyed their Mother's Day! I was blessed to have my Mom with me on Sunday!

Child of God!

Graem's big day was Sunday, March 11th - He was baptized and welcomed into the Christian community! A special thanks to his Godparents - Jessica and Drew Chaplick along with Stacie and Bill Mulso! We missed the other half of Graem's support system (and ours too) but looking forward to continuing the celebration with you in a couple of weeks!

The Gang

The Bly Crew - so not everyone is looking at the camera and smiling - this is about as good as it gets with this crew

Bill and Graem eating ribs! Yum!

Had to end the day with something sweet!
God Bless Graem!
