The latest...

So here is our last month in order of most recent to least recent.

Bode finally got a bike. We have been telling him FOREVER that if he starts going potty in the 'big boy' potty then we would get him a bike. I kind of wished we wouldn't have said a bike because he has been very stubborn about this potty training thing and so it only put off him getting a bike, which he should have had all summer. Anyways, he loves it and he looks so cute on it! This is his first day on it, which ended in a fall and cut chin. But, he got right back on after being bandaged to get after it again. My little boy is growing up:(

We went and stayed up at my Dad's cabin in Colorado, and had so much fun!






The last day we were there we went up to my brother's cabin and went on a long rhino ride. When we got half way around our loop dark clouds started to come up over us. When the down pour started my dad spotted a random cabin and headed over to it. I thought we were just going to stick around under the roof and stay dry, but my dad found an open door and said, "come on in everyone." So we just hung out for awhile is someone's cabin until the rain stopped. I had to get a picture so we could remember 'the cabin we broke into.'

It was a fun day, and then to top it all off we saw four big buck's right by us. Pretty fun!

That's right...10 years, I'm old. It was so good to see everyone I don't get to see. And I am not going to lie, I'm glad it is over:)

After the reunion Nicole got 'the crew' together and it was so much fun! It brought me back to those nights we all used to sit around and do NOTHING. I haven't stayed up that late in a long time! What great friends I have!

*******
The annual Roberts Bear Lake trip 2009! It was very relaxing, as usual, and a lot of fun! The boys thought they were in heaven!


Benson is getting big!
At the campfire...



This is Bode telling a story at the campfire. He got really into it and every time we tried to say, "Okay, Bode, that was a good story, it is another persons turn now." He would get mad and tell us he wasn't done. It was pretty cute!

*******
Day at the firestation with the Dennison's. Bode and Chase are great friends! Here they are after a frosty so...

We bathed them.

*******
Happy fourth of July! We stayed around here and did the parade, swimming at Aunt Marie's, and then watched fireworks at Ty and Michelle's. One of my favorite holidays:)

HA! I love the cabin story. How random that it would be left open! You guys had a busy summer. I'm glad that Bode finally got his bike - less diapers for mom!

I love that Pa broke into some random cabin, I love that you bathed your boys in those buckets, I love Bode's face on the very first bike picture. I love the dress you wore to your reunion! haha

Way to go Bode for going in the potty.

Such fun pictures! The cabin story is the best, beats the rain. I'm sure the owners would understand.

Your boys are getting so big, preschool already, sounds like he loves it.

So how do you put a nude-y pic of Bode in there and have no commentary about it? Does the picture just say it all? Plus, you've confessed to crime in this post - breaking an entering? plus lewdness with a child? Kari Ann!! We really must have a chat to explain to you about your legal situatioN!
