September

Since the month ends tomorrow I figured I'd better add some photos.

Tyler got his "big boy" bed. He is very excited and has only fallen out once! They're so cute when they're sleeping!

We've perfected the art of VanDewater style pizza! Mmmmm pepperoni, mushroom, and olive. The veggie pizza we made that night was even better!

We took a trip up to Foxton Road off Hampden and played around down by the Platte River. We'll have to go again and explore the other side we didn't get to.

I couldn't get a serious picture out of these guys that day!

Me and my boys!

I decided to get a day away by myself and took a drive out I-70 to Central City, then I just kept going. Up 119 to Nederland then out 76 to Estes Park. The mountain picture is of Longs Peak. I was listening to James Harriot's "The Lord God Made Them All" as I drove. Back down through Boulder and I got to Matthew's school just in time to pick him up.

I took the boys back to the same spot over the weekend. We had a blast exploring the old mines and abandoned buildings. I love having exploring buddies.

We tried out the "Amazing Togathering" with Foothills Bible Church at the Corn Maze at Botanic Gardens. Very fun, but we got totally turned around in the corn maze and just went out the same way we went in. :-)

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.
