Fun Summer Days

I love summer! I can't believe that summer is coming to an end! We have had a great summer. Scott and Sage have started going on 4 wheeler rides in the evening. Sage loves it!! She just sits there with her eye's wide open taking it all in. The other day we had so much fun at the pool. Sage has so much fun running around in the water and siting in her floaty. I also could not resist taking a picture of her the other day with all of her curls on the top of her head. She is such a beauty.

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!

Mean People are Stupid!

I have had some weird comments on my blog lately (one in particular). I just can't believe that there are people out there who have the time to look at my blog and leave rude comments. I have no idea who this person is but it is leading me to think that I might go private. What bothers me the most about all of this is that anyone can look at my blog. I never really thought about it, but it is scary that I am posting my life on the web. Yikes! Now I get why so many people are going private. Don't you hate it when one person ruins everything for everyone else!

The First Birthday Party!!!

My sweet little Sage turned one today! I can't believe how fast time has gone by. The past year was filled with the most precious moments that I will hold on to forever. I can't believe how much joy one little person can bring into your life. She has crossed so many milestones already! She is such a big girl! She just bounces around the house on her little feet with the biggest smile on her face. I love it. What I don't love is all of the bumps, bruises and scrapes she is acquiring! Her latest as you can see in her pictures was her first big fall. The gate at the top of the stairs fell down the stairs with her, leaving a few scrapes on her face. It was awful! Even though it's kind of rough she loves her new freedom! For the big ONE, we had a big BBQ bash at our house. We had Lot's of family and friends come to celebrate with us! It was such a great time! Thanks to everyone that came! It was a huge success! One thing I learned is that Sage doesn't like to be messy! She just cried when she had cupcake all over her hands! Thanks everyone for a great birthday party and some great presents!!!

Sage's 1st Birthday!

Today was such a fun day!! For Sage's first birthday I decided it would be fun to throw her a Barnyard Bash! During the day my fabulous friends and I took all of our kiddos to Thanksgiving Point to the Farm Country! The smell reminded me of home! It was so much fun! Sage wouldn't have anything to do with the pony ride! She did have fun with all of her little friends!! Thanks for coming you guys!
