Some More doings

We have been having lots of adventures since we got here. One of the kids favorite places to go is the campground next door. So, we walk over.

 

They have a playground. Grandma even got in on the action:

Another thing that’s been going on is Emma has really been exploring her world. This includes Mommy’s makeup….

It could have been worse… at least i still have some makeup left!

The 4th of July was fun. We had to go to church, so I made the girls cute hair bows. Beka was a hit at church:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I mean seriously, how cute is that!

We had a blast with Aunt Kim shooting off fireworks:

 

   

Sparklers are the best! But the smoke bombs and the whips were really cool too. Then of course there are the fountains. So fun! My camera’s battery was almost dead, so sad! So I didn’t have many pictures. But it was really cool.

One final adventure for this post. The day after fireworks I took the kids to a really cool park in Colorado Springs. I figured the adults needed some kid free time. The park was really neat (and I was able to find it, go me). It was so packed. The park was hosting an art show. So, you had older people and people with kids trying to use the same space. It was crazy! The park had a fun playground that the kids really enjoyed.

This park had a water feature. Now at home we have lots of parks with water features, but there are dwarf by this thing:

It was amazing! I was so glad I had the swimming stuff.

                                                      

 

A few seconds after I took this picture of Beka she feel head first into the water. She was trying to touch the water! I scooped her up right away, took off the overalls leaving her in her onesie and we returned to the water to play. I would have taken more pictures but I was fearful for my camera! We got splashed a bunch. The outing was cut short though. Riley came running (when is he not) but he was also crying. He and another boy had ran into each other. Riley had fallen down and hit his head. He had quite bump on his head, poor baby. It was lunch time anyway, so we left the park.

When we got back to the ranch we enjoyed ice cream cones… some of us more than others:
