Pretty Girl

These are some pictures of Rachel that we had on our camera. Just thought I would share.

She is a fruit snack junky.








Saying prayers... she'll even jabber some times.

Little Helper

When I clean the floors. Rachel expects to help. She gets upset when I don't let her have the swiffer sweeper. Maybe she'll actually be helpful in about 10 years...?



Nana Visits!

The week after Labor Day, Kevin's mom was able to come and see us (love cheap tickets!!). We did a lot of running around, and we were super busy. Rachel was a pretty good sport through it all. We made our first trip to IKEA, which was interesting, and it was fun getting ideas for how to decorate and organize. We also went to a Rockies game. Way cool! We were so glad Nana could come and visit, it was a lot of fun!


After the game.


Sitting at our seats.
Rachel was kind of restless during the first four innings, then she really calmed down for the rest of the game. She did really good considering the game started 15 minutes before her bedtime.





Journal Article

So after over a year. My journal article finally got published! It is about as exciting as my job was at the water lab. This is a link of the proof :)



Visitors!

Just before Labor Day Kyle and Shantay came to visit. It was a fun! Rachel just loved having them here. This pictures are a little shuffled, but I labeled them so you can tell where we are. We did some fun stuff!

We went to the Butterfly Pavilion, super cool. We all thought it was pretty neat.



Rachel, Kyle and Shantay just before they left.


Red Rocks Amphitheater. Definitely worth going to. We will have to go again with some hiking shoes. Kind of weird thing though, there were people exercising on the steps. Would NOT be my choice of venue to exercise. The smaller the audience the better for me.

At the Butterfly Museum they let you hold a tarantula!!! Pretty cool. Rachel was too little, ages three and up.






Rachel was bound and determined to run away while at Red Rocks. At least Kevin was the one chasing her.


Rachel loved Kyle, she was his shadow while he was here.


We really are awake...

Rachel Dancing

Kevin thinks this is amazing, otherwise it probably wouldn't be posted due to the fact that I look like an idiot. However, Rachel does look cute so here it is...

Camping Trip!

So the camping trip pictures are actually at the end. It was really fun. We went with Colby, Michelle, Jayden, and Kylie. We went to Mueller State Park. We got there Friday night and stayed until Saturday. Saturday morning after we packed up we went on a hike, then we ate at a local restaurant which was kinda fun. Then we continued the weekend and headed to pueblo to hang out and came home Sunday just in time for church. WHEW! Fun weekend!

Just barely got back from shopping at Kohl's. (Saved $300 hehe) Rachel was wondering what the deal was with the headless dude...


Jayden and Rachel 4th of July weekend.



Kylie and Rachel (Rachel wasn't really cooperating...)



One of Rachel's FAVORITE activities.


This was the day we found out what the baby was. We went to a park after the OB appointment, while we waited for Rachel's 18 month check up. We still haven't found a pediatrician in Castle Rock, and because we had to go up for the ultrasound, I scheduled the appointments the same day.


Camping Trip Pics! The kids could help themselves. There was gravel, so naturally the were throwing it on the tent and tarp.


Hiking


Colby showing his stuff on the hike


Kevin doin this thang


This was before we left to go camping. I heard her crying, and came in the room to find her like this. The worst part is I left her like this while I went and grabbed the camera, she wasn't very happy about it.


Getting our bed made


Shortly after we got to the camp site





Saturday morning





Kevin got the extra luggage.
