Texas Trip

I try to take a yearly trip to Texas to see my grandparents and uncle's family. This year I flew pregnant and with Felicity as my lap child since David was needed in Colorado. That made it quite the trip! Here are a few family photos with my Grandpa, brother, and Grandma.





I couldn't resist adding the picture of Felicity enjoying her spaghetti!

Glenwood Springs

We stayed at the Hotel Colorado in Glenwood Springs for a couple of nights and enjoyed hanging out around the town. We spent much of our time at the pool. We started at the little kid pool.



Then moved on to the huge main pool, with a dip in the hot tub every now and then.



We even managed to get my Dad to swim for a little bit. Here is photographic proof for you doubters!



This photo is now the background on our computer and Felicity loves to crawl into the room and make us minimize our programs to play "Where's Mommy?"


Here are some nice views from the pool.



We were surprised that Felicity enjoyed being underwater.



I also took my parents on their first rafting trip. We made it a float trip since I knew I was expecting again. They seemed to enjoy it!

Wildlife Experience

My parents came out to spend a few days with us here and then a few days with us in Glenwood Springs. While my parents were here, we took Felicity on her first trip to Wildlife Experience.


She's still a little young for it, but she did sit through most of the movie about the coral reefs. She also enjoyed the animatronics. There was a scary alligator that would jump and hiss at you, and she thought it was really funny.

Kyla's Birthday Party

Our friends had a party for their daughter turning 2. We were happy to learn that it would be a pool party. Felicity loves the water. I only managed to forget her hat, her towel, and the birthday present. Good grief.



The water from the hose was a little cold, but Felicity wasn't about to complain. We did take her out once she started shivering. You could see the look on her face saying, "I'm not cold, Mommy. More sprinklers. "



Riding horsies is always fun.


Felicity enjoyed playing with Kyla and her big sisters. What a great day!

Annual Church Picnic

We had a good time at our annual church picnic. Felicity enjoyed the swings and all the attention from the older girls.

Great-Uncle Michael and Great-Aunt Susie Visit

We spent a pleasant July afternoon visiting with Jim and his brother Michael and sister-in-law Susie.


Felicity loves hats, especially Grandpa Jim's hat.


This July has been beautiful due to all the rain.



Love this picture!

Crayon on My Face

We were over at a friend's this morning, and guess who got ahold of a washable crayon. Beautiful, no?
