Washington Park

On the 11th of August we went to Laramie to see some friends and go to Will's 15 month check up. Joshua wanted to go to the park while we were there, he loves Washington park, so I took some pictures. After the park we went to a good friends house to visit and enjoy a wonderful meal then off to the doctors office after that. It was a short trip but I am very thankful I still live so close to Laramie so I can go up for the day if I want to.

Denver zoo

On August 5th a friend of ours in Laramie invited us to go to the Denver zoo with them. They had some free passes so we drove on down to use them. We had a great time, of course the boys had a wonderful time playing. Joshua and Lucas get a long great and little Oscar is a cutie. We saw penguins, elephants, monkeys, and many other animals. Will did great in the stroller and didn't complain at all. It is so nice to live so close to Denver so we can go to the zoo, aquarium and children museum when ever we want to.

Look at the little babies!

Friends from Texas came to visit.

July 27th until noon on the 28th our friends Katrina and her children Hannah and Kyle came to play. They live in Texas and it had been a year and a half since the last time I saw them. Joshua had a lot of fun playing with his friends and I loved having Katrina here for me to talk with again, I have missed them all so much.

Kyle, Will and Hannah playing in the sand box. Will doesn't like the sand so he would sit up on his bum so his hands, feet, and legs wouldn't touch the sand.




I set up a rug for Will to play on outside since he hates the concrete, grass and sand.

Friends

Joshua's friend Ryan and his little sister came over to play the other day. Ryan and his family are moving far away to another town and that makes Joshua very sad, so we thought we should have some more play dates.

Here are the two little friends, who have been friends all their lives!

Will happy as can be. Little does he know we will be in the car for 6 hours!






Will fighting Andrea for her tray. He loves playing with his, which he dropped so he grabbed for Andrea's.




And he won.
