Denver in June 2011



 Mom payed had private swimming lessons arranged for the four boys while we were there.  After only three classes they were doing pretty good.



 We spent a lot of time at the pool.  Why wouldn't we?  It's hot, it's summer, and it's so much fun.
 Grandma playing patt a cake with Jasmine's feet. 
 We bought sparklers, but had a hard time finding time to do them when the boys were all together.  The only time we were able to do it is when it was still light outside, but the boys still had fun.
We had a BBQ with the family and the guys played some crouquet. 
 Cousins having fun.
 Jasmine's first time in the swing.  The expression tells it all.  She loved it.
 We found this book at our library in Utah called, "Who is Melvin Bubble?"  It's probably one of our favorites now.  We brought it to Denver so we could share it with others.  They liked it too (we knew they would). 


 My had the four boys make stepping stones for her backyard.  She always has some fun project ready for them to do.  Kenner really enjoyed wearing the mask.



As always we had a great time, but it's sad to leave.  Kenner loves going to Denver and going to Grandma and Grandpa's house.  When it's time to get in the car and head back to Utah, Kenner begins to cry, which then makes me feel sad too.  Kameron kept telling us that he didn't want to leave either.  We don't know when we will make it back, but we try to make every minute count.

What Will We Find?

After we put the kids to bed it's always fun to see how we'll find them when we check on them.  Sometimes the upper half of them is on the bed and the lower half is on the floor.  Or they have their bedtime buddies organized all around them on the bed.  My favorite so far is when we found Kameron in Kenner's bed.  I don't know why they decided that.  Maybe one was scared or maybe they wanted to be silly.  No matter what the reason was, they're brothers and best friends and it shows.
