Busy summer

We’ve been pretty busy this summer.  I haven’t had much time to blog over the last month, so I’ll just post here with what we’ve been up to lately.

We went with Grams to the sprayground

We went to Ft. Collins & Windsor for a 50^th wedding anniversary celebration

We stayed with one of Troy’s cousins – he and his wife have a lovely home and are such gracious hosts.  We love staying there.  We spent some time in their yard enjoying the hammock and the rope swing…

Baby Z got to meet his Uncle Jeff & Tia Olga for the first time (He also got to meet his Aunt Debbie, too, but I completely forgot to get a picture of them together)

LittleBigMan had some friends come to our house to play

LittleBigMan learned to ride a tricycle.  (Our awesome neighbors gave it to him)

Troy’s oldest sister & her family came to visit. They arrived Sunday evening and went home Friday morning. We had a GREAT time with them!  We stayed pretty busy while they were here…

Lots of steps up to the waterfalls
