Sweet corn and a bulldog

Aug 9, 2009
This weekend we are dogsitting "Penny" for our friends Katie and Andy. Penny is a bulldog--quite possibly the best dog ever if you ask Matt and Carter. The first picture is Cate laughing at Penny and then Carter playing with Penny.


Oh so very cool...waving with my shades on eating my cracker.

Cate also got to try sweet corn tonight--those teeth really come in handy! All in all a fun weekend at home--we have been traveling so much lately it was nice to finally be home!

Trewet Trip to the Ozarks

Jul 26, 2009
Cate enjoyed her first annual trip to the Ozarks a couple weeks ago. We really enjoyed our trip this year even though we were missing a few of our favorites in the Trewet clan. Cate really loved being in the pool and bobbing in the lake. Carter was a wakeboarding fool and Cate even got to see her dad on waterskis! A few more highlights included eating powered sugar donuts with Papa and laughing hysterically with the twins playing with a whoopie cushion.






The week went entirely too fast...we wish we could stay all summer!

Becker Family Reunion

Jul 4, 2009
We really enjoyed our time with the Becker Family for a long weekend in June
Highlights included...

Spending time with the whole family...
(Papa is Cate's favorite--only because she LOVES when he gives her ice cream!)
Meeting our newest member Spencer (2 months old and about the same size as Cate--don't worry she is already holding her own as you see her pulling his hair in this picture!)
and
being in the parade (Cumberland is 125 years old!)
Papa B had all 3 of his brothers, his dad and his son riding on old tractors. All 4 Becker kids and 5 grandkids were in the parade with lots of other Beckers we picked up along the way--4 Generations Strong--THE CORN IS GROWING AND SO ARE THE BECKERS!
Papa and Grandma Jane with the 5 grandkids all in their Iowa State gear on the tractor.

Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July!
Love~Cate
We enjoyed a weekend with the Becker Family last weekend (pictures coming soon) and will head to the Ozarks with the Trewets tomorrow for our annual weeklong trip.
Cate is 7 months old today--check out her recent pictures

We are behind!

Jun 29, 2009
Hello from the Trewet house--
I am getting behind on blog posts and I don't have time to post pictures tonight, but I will give you a short update to what we have been up to these summer days.
Carter is working at Otter Creek Golf Course and although he thought, at the beginning, that having a job was quite possibly the worst thing in the world...the tips have helped and his job isn't quite so bad. He is a bag boy and is finding that there are worse summer jobs. He even took his girlfriend out to eat (on his own dime) last week followed by a trip to Saylorville to watch the sunset (everyone now--oooooooooohhh!)
Cate is getting more fun by the minute--she is crawling now! We will try to post a video sometime as proof. She is also learning about pitch in her voice, that girl can scream when she wants! She is finally getting over a NASTY cold that both her parents also got from her last week.
We just got home from a FABULOUS long weekend with the Becker family. Cate was in her first parade and enjoyed her first fishing trip. It was a VERY special time with family that we will treasure. No worries--Cate can definitely hold her own in that houseful of boys. We have proof in the pictures of her pulling little Spencer's hair out.

Love to all!

GOING TO THE POOL!

We took Cate to the pool today--it was her second trip. SHE LOVES IT! Here are pictures from 2 weeks ago--her first trip to the pool. Briarwood has a very fun pool with a baby pool...some how I see us spending lots of time there over the next several years.
