Family Vacation- Day 1

We went on a family vacation to Colorado last week. I took so many pictures that I decided to post them day by day to break it up a little! We left on Sunday and did some shopping in Loveland on the way out. Then we had sandwiches for supper and enjoyed checking out our cabin and all that it offered.

We had hummingbirds that would come eat off this feeder in front of our window off the deck. Hard to see....he was moving a little too fast for my camera settings!

Then we had elk come up to our deck. The kids loved watching them.

Then it was time to relax (or try to swim) in the hot tub!

Cousin Time

Trace came to swim with us one afternoon. The kids had a great time together.

The Kendra pointed out this pretty rainbow that evening.

Trip to Kearney

Last week we took a day trip to Kearney to see some friends that we don't get to see very often. They were staying at a hotel for a family reunion. We had a good time swimming, and visiting just a little bit. It was a fun day for all of us!

The whole group....Jen, Angie, Amy, Renee, and me with all the kids.

80th Birthday Celebration

Mike's grandma turned 80 earlier this month, so the family hosted an open house for her. It was a really good time catching up with family we don't see often.

I made the cakes.

Collin and Dalton became good buddies.

The kids had lots of fun playing together.

And Grandma was very surprised with the Mother's ring from the family. It was a great weekend!

Photo Shoot-Baby

Renee took some pictures for me yesterday....she did a great job with the kids and me. These are just a couple of baby shots at 26 weeks, 3 days.

Overnight Guest

Kendra and Collin had one of their friends over for a couple of nights when her mom had surgery to have her tonsils out. We had lots of fun, and some fights over who was going to get to do certain things with Sonya! :)

We went swimming...

And did lots of other things I don't have pictures of....

And enjoyed cake batter while I baked!

July 5

Mike had Monday off work, so he came along with us to McCook for my doctor's appointment. Everything looked good, and the kids had fun hearing the heartbeat again. Then we went from there to North Platte for the day. The kids were disappointed that Cody Park was under water, so not open, but quickly got over it when we headed to Menards where there was a playground and frogs! Lots of frogs....big ones, and little bitty baby ones.
