Camping in Colorado

We had such a fun week with Tyler on vacation! So far third year is awesome! We had an evening flight to CO on Monday so we had time to go swimming with our friends for a few hours in the morning. The girls love the water! And it's way more fun when Daddy swims with them.


Kendall and Jaxon floating around.

With her puddle jumper and goggles, Avery is fearless!

This is the life.

Avery loves jumping off the side.

We made it to CO! The girls were sooo excited to see Grammy and Grandpa!

Playing hide and seek with Grandpa!

We did a little Gender Reveal party with my family. I was so excited to tell the girls what we are having!


Ready to dig in!

What color is inside?

It's a....

GIRL!!!!
We can't believe it!

After cupcakes we had fun swimming! Bryce took lots of fun videos of Avery swimming with his go pro.

Avery underwater!
She has gotten so comfortable in the water. The swim lessons are paying off!


Kendall loves playing with all the toys at Grammy's house.
My parents recently moved and they liked having a new house to explore.

Kendall is becoming quite the goof ball these days. Always making silly faces and talking in funny voices. I think she gets it from her Dad!

We celebrated July birthday while we were there. Avery helped light the candles on the ice cream cake.

Happy Birthday to us!

BBQ on the patio.

Hanging out around the fire.

Passed out snuggling with the uncles.

So many fun toys!

Passed out in the car.

We had lots of packing up to do to go camping. Avery really wanted to help carry and load things into the truck. What a kid!

And then she gave me this pose...???? haha!

Helping Uncle Bryce pump up the raft.

Pic of the rafters from the bridge! We took the girls on a short float trip and then got out before the real rapids began. They LOVED it!! They kept talking about how they were Moana sailing her boat. I wish they could have rafted longer!


Playing in the river while they cleaned up the boat.

Daddy helping Avery toast her bagel in the morning.

Camping!

Avery caught a butterfly! Just nabbed it out of mid-air!

Playing in the creek.

Gorgeous views!


Aunt Jessie: Marshmallow expert.

Cody brought his hammock from Brazil.

Cute little camper.



Mom and Dad. The cutest.

A flower!

Found some snow!

Made a snowball to show to Kendall. Then we went and threw it at Bryce!

Holding hands while they walked. No one told them to do that. So cute!




Aunt Jessie took most of these really pretty scenic pics!


Kent was so good with the girls and helped a ton. He is going to be a great dad!

Bryce and Jessie


The cutest sisters. So excited to add another one to our little bunch.

I heart CO.

Loving some quality Dad time.


Smelling the Columbines. But.... we do NOT pick them!


Dinner at BeauJos pizza on the way home! Soooo good!

We had such a great trip out and it was so fun to get together with the whole family! Everyone was really sweet with the kids even though they can be a handful. Also, Tyler interviewed with a group in Colorado Springs for a job starting next summer. I can't believe we are already thinking about that! We both really liked it so we will see where that goes...
