Fun, family, and 10 days of camping


We spent last 10 days in the beautiful Colorado Mountains! We had a wonderful time at my mom's family reunion near Durango the first weekend. We camped on my uncle's property along with two of my brothers. It was so great to see the fam and catch up on their lives. We pulled out of there on Sunday morning and headed for a camping spot near Telluride. It was so beautiful!!!! I love the mountains, and I especially love these mountains! We camped with my four brother's and their families. I loved being with them and having our kids around each other. Sage had a blast!! It rained a lot so we didn't get to do a lot of 4 wheeling, hiking, or fishing. But is was great to be with good company. We also celebrated my parents 50th wedding anniversary! It was so much fun! We were very thankful that the weather let up just enough for us to enjoy it. It was quite the experience because we had to bring everyone up on 4 wheelers to our spot!! We then had my dad's family reunion at a lodge near there that was so much fun!!! It was a long 10 days but we did it! We are glad to be back home!!

Happy 4th of July!

For the Fourth of July this year we had such a fun day! We went out to lunch with Scott's parents at Good wood. Then the girls went to the mall and the boys went to Cabala's. (The girls did not want to spend all day at Cabala's!) Later that night we met up with our good friends Kevin and Allison for dinner and fireworks! We had so much fun. Sage was mesmerized by the lights. The only time she got upset was when they got too loud. Otherwise we cuddled on the blanket together. I couldn't help but think that this was what makes being a mommy so worth it! I love when she will lay and cuddle with me! It was a great day!
