Some cute pics and some cute videos...

Earlier this summer went to a place in town called The North Pole. There were great little kid rides.











Drew's new favorite song during Music Therapy.


Madi's 3 BFF's. Her very best BFF is the one right next to her. They had a Friendship Party to celebrate the 1 yr anniversary of being friends. Side note: this year coming up may be the ONLY year she goes to the same school twice during elementary school. She sure is resilient when you consider that fact!

Post fun nap...


Jack is VERY into Star Wars these days. He is walking like C3PO here...

Mommy and Drew coming off the slide. Notice how I held his face out of the water...I'm patting myself on the back as I type...

Post slide rest and snack...


Dress up fun...



Dining Out



Last Friday night the base had a dining out. Andy and I don't get pictures together very often. Here we are at the event. Then, Tuesday we went to Red Rocks to see Heart and Journey. Here is a pic I snapped of the venue on our way in.

Andy's Barr Trail Mountain Run

Andy ran more than halfway up and then back down Pike's Peak... and finished the race!!! I'm so proud of him.

The Fourth of July!

The Fourth of July was a great day! The kids rode their scooters in a parade in Monument. Thank you Papa and Zuza for the partiotic shirts!!! Then went to Fatburger for some good ol' American food...and sat on barstools, which thrilled the kids to no end. It rained most of the day, but cleared up just in time for fireworks.
