July and August

We celebrated Tyler's third birthday at the park. At least we attempted to, but we got driven out by the bees and mosquitos. We finished up at home. Tyler LOVES his new guitar.

Foam Factory fun for Tyler's 3rd birthday. They love that place!

Matthew's first day of school. My cute boy is really growing up. He has Mrs. Balding as his teacher and he's doing really good. He alternates between riding his bike and his scooter to school. Daddy picks him up from school on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Ye Olde Tyme Festival at Bellevue Park. We split a hot dog, the boys did lots of jumping in the balloon castles, and they played in the creek. Overall a very fun day.

Tyler's 1st Day of Pre-School!! Matthew was a great big brother. He helped Tyler know where to go and what to do. Tyler didn't even cry when we left.

Tyler and I went raspberry picking at Berry Patch Farms in Brighton.

A day at Tiny Town

with the the Benfields.

Long Pause...And I'm Back (May and June)

I know, I know, I haven't been here in a while and there have been no pictures posted of the boys. I've been busy in other areas of cyberspace, reading, playing, crafting, and vegging (is that a word?). So what have we been up to???? More like, what have we not been up to.

May - not so much. Finished up pre-school for Matthew and kept wondering if summer was going to arrive because of such cold and rainy weather. Matthew attended Connor's Spider Man birthday party.

June - We went camping!!! The first time for the family. We got a new tent, Grammy and Grandpa Harriman got sleeping bags for the boys and an air mattress for us and we still had our camping stove. We had lots of fun in Bailey, CO at the Pine Creek Campground.

June also brought Father's Day

And, Matthew's 1/2 birthday.

Then I left for a week for a big trip to Maine, including my 20th High School Reunion. I stayed with the Balser Family and had a great time catching up with old friends and neighbors.

Got to take a tour of the house I grew up in. Lots of changes and I really like what they've done.

Time with Friends (Tricia, Jen, Lori, and Me)

Jen, Me, Marianne, Joy

I took a trip down to Port Clyde, ME and rode the ferry the 10 miles out to Monhegan Island. What a great day, even though we were socked in by fog. I finally saw a Puffin! I was begining to think they didn't really exist.

Cheesey Birthday

Matthew and Tyler were invited to their Christopher's birthday at Chuckee Cheese! They had a blast. I left with a headache! :-) Matthew found a game that just spewed out the tickets and they loved picking out their prizes.

Happy Birthday on Resurrection Sunday

I know, it's May and I'm just posting Easter pictures. Actually, it was Easter and Steve's birthday on the same day. Steve and I went out to eat the night before at the Cork House Wine Restaurant which was excellent. We tried to listen to the band "Papa Jukes" at El Chepoltepec 2, but the mix was so bad it drove us both crazy and we called it an early night. Of course, I forgot to bring the camera that night so didn't capture the moment.
