Here are some family pictures we snapped before Lea's wedding. And yes, I have lots more wedding pictures to post! This blog helps us keep in touch with everyone but it's other function is as our scrapbook- so an important occasion like this one means LOTS of photos.

Family Date Night
Friday night Luke got home early enough that we started our Family date night out at the Farmpark.
| Levi got to take a pony ride. |
| Milo says, "harumph. I want to ride the pony! When will I be 3 years old?" |
| He was so cute. |
| Luke got to witness Milo feeding the goats. He takes it all pretty seriously but then will break out into a huge grin and say something unintelligible to them. |
| Levi has been partial to the big billy goats but here is feeding the small ones. |
| nibble nibble. |
| The lure of the diggers. |
| On the rockers, Milo made his "heehaw" sound that his Nana taught him. |
| He doesn't talk but communicates just the same. "Move me to the next one!" |
| "Let's take this piggie out for a spin." |
| "We've got LOTS more of these to ride, Daddy! Let's move on to the next one." |
| After the park closed we stopped in to get frozen yogurt. |
| Milo had his own spoon and dipped into Luke's bowl. He did not care for how cold the frozen yogurt was. |
| "Here ya go, big brother!" |
| Levi in turn gave Milo a bite of his pineapple yogurt. |
| so tart!! |

Family Reunion
The Dickson clan gathered last weekend for the annual reunion. We had beautiful weather and lots of good food and company.
| Levi was invited to a tea party with the little girls. He was curious about the place settings (beautiful pieces from Aunt Diane) but was mostly only interested in the snacks. |
| They created quite an elaborate setting. |
| The boys soaked up the extra time with their Daddy. |
| Soccering! Levi was disappointed that he didn't have his shin guards with him. |
| Milo couldn't move as fast as Levi but still wanted to be part of the fun. |
| He did a pretty good job at dribbling. |
| He motored around without falling. |
| Levi found batting helmets and was so excited to get to wear one. He insisted that I wore one, too, even though I was pitching. |
| Hey batter, batter... |
| Swing, batter, batter. |
| Milo had so much fun. |
| Levi was enamoured by Josiah. |
| We had a whole crew of toddlers and preschoolers and two brand new babies as well. |
| Grandma and kids on the couch picture. The kids have grown so much since this picture- lots more have been added, as well. |
| Whee! |
| 'I want to throw the football, too!" |
| Little Alison. |
| Leo and Levi share a hug. |
| water balloon volleyball. |
| Serious about water balloons. |
| 'While everyone is distracted I'll just do some investigating." |
| Sleepy boys on the ride back home. |

600!
Hello and welcome to a bit of a milestone. This is LADickson's 600th post. I don't have anything all that noteworthy to post on this 600th occasion of me hitting 'Publish Post'- just more of what I've been doing for this past almost 5 years, snapshots into our life. As you all know, our life right now is under construction. The following pictures pretty much sum things up.
| Milo likes wearing a slightly different style. I had quite the oversight when I bought them both earplugs- I didn't pick any up for me! |
| working hard. no pants. |
| Milo worked hard lining up the screwdriver with the head of the screw. |
| Levi pointing out how he drove it all the way in. I went to pick up the board last night and it was nailed to the floor in several places. |
I wonder what life will be like after 600 more posts?
