Hot days=Lots of pool time!

Here is Paige playing in the pool last week during one of the 90 degree days.

Jump shot #2
Dunking her head in. (as Paige likes to say)

Last week we also went over to Erica's house to play. Stacey and baby Matney came too! Here is Matney laying on the floor relaxing. Matney showing off her first bathing suit ever. Looking cute in Paige's hat!

Me with Matney, Paige and Jack. I was the only adult brave enough to get in!!

Happy Father's Day!


Paige and her Daddy dancing on Father's Day. Paige and I gave Daddy an gift card to I Tunes and a book called "Cinderella". This book included a CD with the song Cinderella by Stephen Curtis Chapman. It is a beautiful song about a dad and his daughter. I know Paige will always be close to her daddy. Brad is an amazing father and always puts his family first. He loves spending time with his daughter and loves taking care of us. When we played the CD, Paige said, "Daddy, dance with me." So he did!

Toby's Birthday Party!

Our good friend's "The Gunter's "(see blog roll) had a birthday party for their son Toby last Saturday. Toby turned three years old. They had his party at a place called the "Jump House". It was filled with lots of fun things to jump on, climb and slide down. Paige has a blast!! Brad and I continue to be amazed by Paige. She always seems to have no fear when trying new things. She loved climbing up and she kept telling us, " I can do it by myself". She was so proud of herself.
Here she comes!


Sliding down with Mr. Brian!
Slide #2
Climbing up all by herself. What you can't tell from the pictures is how far apart the steps were. Many of you know how petite Paige is but she just kept trying as hard as she could and was not going to give up. She grabbed the rope and the string on the right side and pulled herself up. She wasn't going to let the big kids show her up:)

Slide #3
More climbing action!
Ready for cake!
Cheese!

The birthday boy! Happy 3rd birthday, Toby! Thanks for inviting us to your fun party!

I am so glad that we got to go and be apart ofMarcie and Zach's day. We had an amazing time in Colorado and some fabulous times with friends. Paige stayed here with her Nana and Papa and had a great time as well. Our next trip needs to be a fun six pack girls weekend! Right, girls?

Rocky Mountain National Park

The day before the wedding we decided to go and see Rocky Mountain National Park. Tara and I had both been before but Melissa, Brad, and Matt had not been. It is so beautiful and I actually got to see a lot more this time. Last time that I was in Colorado it was April and it wasn't very warm yet so much of Trail Ridge Road was not open due to the snow coverage.

All five of us!
Look at all the snow.

It was so cold. ( I am sure you can tell by our faces!
