Some Fun Summer Photos

We've had quite a busy summer this year. It seems we've been storing up the desire to get out and do stuff ever since I got pregnant with the twins back in 2006 and almost immediately got put on severe restrictions. Unfortunately, that was the week before our 4th of July trip up to Canada. It was a huge bummer. And well, that pretty much lasted until about...um...a few months ago. Now our kids are walking, running, feeding themselves, and getting really funny! So we put all house projects (except gardening and the yard) on hold and decided to have some fun. We're headed off to California soon for a week and anticipate a great time there. In the meantime, I thought I'd throw up some random photos of the boys from this summer. Enjoy!

An early morning shot from the back door of the Wyoming High Country lodge. What a beautiful place to spend a few days! Truly, I didn't take enough pictures. Some flowers in Wyoming.

The boys chasing after daddy hidden in the shadows of the trees. This was up at Wyoming High Country.
The boys and their best friend Daddy. At least it frees up my hands to take pictures!
Ah, the sweet slumber of a happy child. Oliver likes his space when he sleeps!

We took our kids for their first trip to the Gateway fountains in July. They weren't sure what to think about the water but decided to play it safe and stick together.
Gabe looking all-so-serious.
Gabe giving one of his signature grins. So cute!
Oliver not so sure about the lake water, quickly retreats.

Gabe and Oliver couldn't decide who should go first in the only kid swing in Gma and Gpa Gibbons swingset. So, we put them both in at the same time. Gabe doesn't seem to mind at all.

Oliver is enjoying himself in a semi-comotose state brought on by hours of swinging.
Oliver sharing some of Gpa's planter dirt with him.
And then blessing the dirt. :)
