A 4th of July re-cap

We ventured out camping this weekend with Papa, G'ma,Uncle T, Aunt T and Cousin Z. We DID NOT sleep in tents - I decided at 29 weeks pregnant that was not an adventure I was up for so we rented a cabin while Papa and G'ma RV'd it and while it was a fun time I can assure you I don't think we are up for camping with a 2 year old and 1 year old again any time soon - at least by ourselves - there is a lot to say for being able to have your kids sleep in their own beds and not miss their daily naps and it was quite evident this morning that they had not had either of those the last 2 days as we packed up to leave with 2 incredibly grumpy kids!! Enjoy the pics - we really did have a nice time and it was nice to get away.



A & G'ma dipping their feet in the COLD water!


Sylvan Lake


A wanted to climb this "mountain" so Uncle T guided her up

A & Uncle T at the Top
E and T also climbed up Harney Peak on Saturday morning.....not a hike for the weary as it turns out. Harney is SD highest peak (no pics E did not have the camera along)....and although not a Colorado Mountain it is definitely a climb worth taking (if your not pregnant or toting 2 kids).


Looking out on Sylvan Lake - the lake was packed with people on Friday and there was even a wedding taking place along the shore line while we were there.


Can you name the movie this scene is from???


"Kissing Cousins"


Our little bundle of energy - always on the go - via his knees!


A and G'ma roasting a marshmallow


Little E was also very insistent on roasting his own marshmallow but really what he wanted was just to hold the stick with a marshmallow on the end like he was fishing....I think E only was wacked in the head about 10 times.


All three cousins together....and to think by this time next summer - the number will have doubled and there will be 6 cousins apart of this picture.
