Garrettisms

Garrett got stitches in his chin from riding his bike a little too fast (imagine that). The stitches were blue and stuck out here and there. A few days after he had the stitches put in we were just sitting there and he pops in with this comment, "I look like a man who had a beard and got electrocuted."

Today on the way home from school Garrett told me that, "They only give homework to make us angry and annoy us." Great, 2nd grade and this is the attitude....it's going to be a long 10 years to high school graduation!

Summarizing our summer!

Okay, so my last post was in May....that's what summer will do to a gal. We had a busy summer (don't we always). Summing it up with 1/100th of our photos sounded like a good idea. Here is goes....

We rode our bikes enough to get stitches.

We visited the Colorado State Capitol building and the Denver Mint.


Went to Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.Watched in awe as the cars crashed at the demolition derby (and watched in awe at some of the overly tatted/pierced/mulleted/lack of teeth people).
Roasted marshmallows while camping.
Jumped off cliffs.
Swung on a rope swing.

We hung out with cousins and grandmas!
We went for walks at the cabin.
We went fishing!
Some of us, that wear a lot of pink, slept in cars.
Rode horses!

Watched parades!
Played at the sand dunes.
Caught fish!
Went on rides at Elitch Gardens.
Saw some gators in CO!
Visited the Denver Aquarium.
Played in the fountain in downtown Colorado Springs.

Went geocaching.

Facebook

It seems I can only keep up with Facebook or my blog and facebook is winning! I am going to try to post stuff on here more regularly....we'll see.
