Summer continues on.  I am getting out once or twice a day with the dogs.  JR has finished his big project at work, so he should be getting out more.  (He is actually on an overnight at a mountain lake with JJ - seeing how the dog does in 100 degree weather.)  Ben leaves for Italy next week.  Going over for 18 days with 2 friends.  They are keeping everything very fluid and only have reservations for one night so far.  Just figuring it out as they go.  Jacob continues to work hard and play hard.  He is golfing about 3-4 times a week (had a hole in one at 225yd!), finding lots of time to shoot his bow for upcoming hunting season that starts in two weeks.  He has already informed me that he won't have a free weekend until probably November.  He is somehow continuing to find time for his dump hauling side gig.  Joseph is staying busy with odd and end work things.  He has to do some work on his motorcycle so has not been riding it much.

The dogs....JJ is doing well.  Bree has done a great job of teaching him the ropes.  He has quite the personality but Bree doesn't let her forget who is the boss.  His coloring has really changed.  The pictures are about 4 months difference.  She has lost most of her pink nose.

The other pictures below....Ben was in a friends wedding.  He also completed a 10 mile race, which included 2800 elevation gain.  Was fun to be at the finish line with him.  Got a picture with Ben and Jose on Ben's 22nd birthday.  The pack light, come home heavy picture is of Jacob on his Hawaii hunt....it was an ad for a boot company and Jacob has partnered with them.  The last picture cracks me up - of Jacob and Joseph.  Jacob was going to a Luke Bryan / Jason Aldean concert in Missoula and he came down in his 'travel' outfit.  He said he was going to put on jeans and boots and wear the shirt and hat.  So Jacob!

Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

 

 

 

Time for another photo dump!!  What has happened in the last couple of months.

Jose and Ben went to Honduras for a week.  

Jose spent 2 weeks in Peru on an 80 mile hike.  

Jacob spent a week in Hawaii hunting.  

Joseph has spent a lot of time on his bike.  

On May 20th my died passed away (he had been in nursing home for a few years).  So I made a few trips back to Texas and recently also headed to Ohio for my niece's white coat ceremony (PT)  

And some miscellaneous pictures

Travel has slowed down for all of us.  Jacob is hustling and working 6 days a week.  Ben has started at Costco and trying to figure out if he can hustle with another job for the next 9 months.  Joseph is very rarely home, working 4 days a week, riding his motorcycle or hanging out with friends/girlfriend.  JR is in middle of busy summer season.  I have started very part time work with a cleaning company working on the back end (policies and procedures) and gearing up for more hours in the fall.  JJ and Bree are about the same size.  He has gotten really dark in color and losing most of his pink spot on his nose.
