August Fun Times

The photos got posted in reverse order but that is okay. We can live life backwards sometimes, right?

Lydia got her own room because we moved Maya and Brianna into their room in the basement. Everyone adjusted wonderfully!

Ryan had a birthday and I made a cake. It was really not gross.

We got water balloons from the primary presidency. The kids enjoyed playing with them one afternoon.

Ryan and I had our 10th anniversary! We spent a few days at the Brown Palace in Denver, with the kids at home with Papa. We hiked, ate amazing food, got massages and pedicures, did a little shopping, and went on a bike ride around downtown Denver. We had a great time!

I have three amazing daughters!

Pro tip: don't leave your patio umbrella out all season. Wasps will live there.

Grandpa Kent and Grandma Lalo came to visit. We love having them here! They are so wonderful with the grandkids, and of course very helpful around the house as needed, or even when it isn't. 

Maya let me do her hair. It stayed in this for three days.

Lydia doing her silly sitting-on-things. A paint can in the laundry room this time.

We went to the pool. We went so much this year! Due to COVID-19 we had to sign up to go, and I would sign us up for 3-4 days a week. Having to commit to it made it happen more often, and I'm glad. Last year we hardly went because of Lydia being so tiny.

We painted rocks for another primary activity.

While Grandpa and Grandma were here we went to a cute little train ride in Loveland, that was right by a park. Dallin was in little boy heaven on that train!

Masks are so fun!

We also went to a park and had a picnic lunch one day. The weather was so lovely that day!

These two are such a joy to have in our home. I probably say a million times a day, "You're so cute!" And they know it!
