Splish splash

Our afternoon was spent taking doggy drinks from the pool . . .

Throwing fish out of the pool . . .

Getting back in the pool . . .

Throwing them back in . . .

and splashing around!

We also checked out the new sprinklers next door.



It was a great way to spent a HOT afternoon.

Congratulations Logan and Lisa!

This last weekend Uncle Logie got married to Miss (Aunt now) Lisa. This was Carter's very first wedding and had the honor of being the ring bearer. Although it took two and a half hours and many, many jellybeans; he got (mostly) dressed and made it down the isle all while being super cute! I was very busy chasing the very handsome and very busy ring bearer, so we didn't get a lot of pictures, but here are some so you can see how cute he was.
Pants -- check, Shoes -- check, Tie -- check, Vest -- check, the fancy button up shirt and jacket just weren't in his dressing plans! :)

Some very handsome Widner men

A pretty good shot of mom and dad (in the nursery, where Carter and I spent most of the wedding playing :)

Checking out the shoes he just ripped off his feet. I don't blame him, they didn't look very comfortable.

Most of the reception Carter spent dancing the night away. He did stop for a hot second to let Grandma give him a spin around the dance floor.


AND here is what he looked like the rest of the night!
We had a great time and wish Logan and Lisa all the best. Thanks for letting Carter (oh, and Dustin too!) be a part of your big day!

Every little boys dream

A play room full of fun!


Let's pack up and move

This post is a little out of order, but with the end of school and MOVING, things got a little crazy! :) At the end of last month we packed up our whole house, called the moving company, and moved into our new dream house. Carter was ever so helpful . . .


After snapping these pictures Carter decided he wanted in on the picture taking action, so he took some of mom and him. I don't know why, but I truly love this picture!

At the end of the day I wanted some parting shots from our first house in Papillion. Though we love our new home, I will always have fond memories of this house. I loved it from the minute I saw the white porch. I already miss the porch and the memories we made there, but I know this house has so much in store for us!

Carter's new play set

Since the big move we've been busy settling in. Since we got a new house, and Carter has WAY out grown his last play set, we decided it was time to find a new play set for him. He LOVES it! I think that he has been eating every dinner out there and enduring the hot Nebraska heat to play in the sand box area. It will be a great play area for years to come.

Deanna Rose

Last weekend, we made a quick trip to KC to see some friends and family. Right before we headed out of town we went to a place called Deanna Rose in Overland Park. It is a farmstead that is FREE to visit during the week. While we were there we saw goats, chickens, horses, and cows. Carter really likes animals, so he had a great time!
Hello, goat!

Feeding a baby goat with grandpa and daddy.

Riding a tractor with dad.

More cowbell, dad!

Petting a calf.

Happy Easter!

We spent the weekend with Dustin's parents. Carter really enjoyed having Grandma and Grandpa around to play with. Easter morning Carter enjoyed hunting for Easter eggs.

He liked putting them into his basket (until he found out there was candy in them, then it was more about the candy than anything else . . .)

Checking out the goods from the Easter bunny (grandma and grandpa ;)


In the afternoon there was a little sun, so we took the opportunity to go to Halleck Park (or to the orange slide as Carter calls it).

For the first time he wanted to check out the tire climbing strucutre. He's not quite big enough to do it on his own, but he did enjoy being up high.
