Hanging out on a Summer night...

Tonight we were just hanging out enjoying our Sunday and this beautiful summer weather. Have I mentioned we LOVE it here?! It's SO nice and we especially love our extended backyard on evenings like this. The kids just love to run wild and play. I think they just love to feel free- who doesn't?!

Play grounds...

So people have been asking what my business is going to be like. Well, we are using the same designer as this place in Boulder- www.playgroundscafe.com. We are hoping to be similar to them. It's kind of a mix between them and this place- www.appleseedsnyc.com. Here are some pics of Play grounds in Boulder- if your ever in the area- I highly recommend it- my kids had a blast!

California...

San Jose Children's Museum- the VERY cool water area.

Blowing Bubbles!

Auntie Jessica with the kiddos.

"One Mile" in Chico- basically part of the river made into a gigantic swimming pool- VERY cool!

My dad and the kids.

Cooper's favorite- the Fire truck!

Grandpa and Cooper in the pool.

Auntie Jessica- very pregnant. Feeling "light" for the first time in a while:)

The "big belly boys" and Jessica.

We had a quick trip to California for a visit. It was a WHIRLWIND! I took the kids by self- BIG MISTAKE!! It was nice to see everyone but delayed flights, lots of driving in the car, no sleeping and too much sugar will drive a Momma mad! Let's just say- I have NEVER been so HAPPY to be home- and I think my kids felt the same way. We did have some fun while we were there though. We went to the Children's Museum in San Jose, Ikea, the pool, and we visited a lot with family.

Cousin Visit!

Along the river in Estes Park

The river was too pretty not to get a family photo by! (Cooper was not cooperating)

City Park- The VERY BIG frogs...


Slip N slide in the backyard!

"Piggy backin" it down the slip n slide.

Jed and Josie looking so cute right when they wake up.

Gotta LOVE the big trucks!

Feeding the ducks at City Park

Joe's family came out to visit us and to go to the Motor cross race. The kids had so much fun together! Cooper and T.J LOVE each other- it's SO cute to see them together. We went to City Park, around town and up to Estes Park.
