Daddy and Colter had a fun boys weekend up at the Riebel's cabin for Rocky's 6th birthday party. They played on snowmobiles and all sorts of fun snow toys. Colter drove their Argo all for a few miles by himself, a huge moment for him and Daddy!
Trevor and I were able to go on a Westwater trip in late April. It was one of the few nice, sunny, not windy days of the entire spring season. The water was big and we had a great time with old and new friends. That boat is not us--it is the boat in front of us getting buried in a huge wave. We spent a good bit of time at Modee and Pappy's playing outside, their snow melted a little quicker than ours. Colter has had a great time building forts, log cabins and hideouts this spring, with help from Daddy for this one.
Dylan is riding a two wheeler with no training wheels and he is still 2! He has fantastic balance and determination. He picked it up in about 5 minutes with help from big brother Colter. As you can see from his clothing, we all had seasonal confusion for a while, couldn't decide if it was going to snow, rain, blow or be nice. Welcome to spring in Colorado. This is Colter's boulder fort in our neighborhood. He and his friends are constantly adding new features, bridges, doors etc. So fun to watch his creative and inventive personality blossom.
Another fun trip to Moab, this time for catapillar season. We spent quality time at our favorite Rotary Park.
The boys riding bikes down the bike trail in Moab was so fun to watch! Colter was so patient with Dylan and it paid off, Dylan rode all over town that weekend after only learning to ride two days before. We also spent a day playing around Mill Creek. The boys can and will make weapons out of anything!
More Mill Creek fun. We all love playing and climbing on the slick rock. Colter enjoyed learning about the petroglyphs (sp?) I love watching my kids grow and learn, it is so amazing what is already in their brains just waiting to be exposed and expanded upon.
Next up was Mac-Mac's 80th birthday party! We had a great weekend on the Front Range, exploring and playing. The boys loved Mac's "worm" cake, snake hunting and tractor racing around the neighborhood. We ate way too much good food and enjoyed some nice weather---finally!
We have celebrated alot of birthdays this month. This weekend it was Modee's turn and then Jasmine's Mine Tour birthday party. We all gathered at Modee and Pappy's on Friday for more yummy food and play time. It is a very busy party when all five grandsons are on the loose. Pics are on Mom's camera, forgot mine. Then today we went to Silverton and rode a mining train into the Old Hundred Mine on a tour. It was a great, highly recommend to anyone in the area. Kids of all ages loved it and we got to pan for gold and silver. It was a fun Memorial Day weekend.
