And just like that, summer's over. Sure, it's still 100 degrees today, but now it's september (!) and we're in the school groove. August was pretty great--here are the highlights.
Cousin trip to the zoo when Finley was visiting
Rocky the Nuggets mascot. Tessa was super excited to see him but not enough to be in the picture.
Petting zoo at the fair. This girl is an animal lover!
Sunday morning scripture reading in bed. It's the cutest thing to hear Rhett read the scripture stories to Tessa.
Annual trip to Lakeside with our passes from the summer reading program. It was as dirty and broken down as always, but the kids had a great time
End of summer play group trip to Belleview Park. The kids played in the creek for hours and rode the train around the whole park.
First day of school for this big first grader! He was so brave and excited. Moving to whole day school was a transition (he was so tired for the first week), but he loves school!
Camping at Golden Gate Canyon. This park is the best. We tried a different campground this year and loved it just as much. So many rocks to climb on!
Lounging in the library hammocks
Tessa is quite the artist and covers the paper with very deliberate, small marks
Back to school time means the splash pad was deserted.
Book fort at the library!
We took a weekend trip to Breckenridge with just Rhett. It was nice to spend time with only him. The highlight was definitely riding the gondola to the top of the mountain to play in the snow in August. Rhett was amazed. I wore sandals and froze my toes.
Your happy, little family makes me happy. It's a good life.
