HI Daddy!

We miss you and can't wait to see you on Saturday.

Last weekend

We went for a hike- it is definitely fall at higher elevations. (It is kinda fall down here on the plain too- but we aren't ready to admit it)



Little one thought he need to see what was in mommies purse.

Marks new word

Make sure you turn the volume up he is kinda quiet.

monthly upload

I just don't seem to get to this any more frequently than once a month anymore. It was a lot easier when he was smaller. Now every time I try and use the computer he wants to help. Oh well. Here are a few from his first day of preschool and a few from our trip to the NJ shore.I've got the keys and am ready to go.
That is our little bear running! He is so fast now.
No trip to the shore is complete without a walk on boardwalk. On daddies shoulders is his new favorite spot.
After a few hours of refusing to even touch the sand he saw some birds and chased them all around- which lead to going in and learning about the waves.

We went backpacking this weekend!

This is on our little hike to get water. Wouldn't you like to live in this field? When it's last owner died in the late 1800's it went for 700$

I sat on this downed tree and then Mark spent a long time trying to sit on it like I did :)

This is the sun coming up in the morning. Our two person backpacking tent was a little tight for the three of us, but we managed.
I don't know if you can see how happy Mark is in this photo- but he really is. We had to wait out a thunderstorm before we set off so we played in the car. It also started raining 10 minutes after we got back to the car on Sunday. But it didn't rain on us :)

A nice long hike

Mark has friends

We had a couple of great playdates this week. Mark is really enjoying hanging out with other kids. It is so cute to watch them play near each other. I don't know when cooperative play starts- but for now it is fun to see how happy they are together.

Going a walk

Still a cute baby!

Eating some avacados. Playing with Kodi the dog. Mark LOVES Kodi.

Grandparents visit

We had a great visit with Tim's folks. We made it up to Rocky Mountain National Park and got a few good shots of the elk. Here are a couple of photos.

Mark dancing with daddy

Dancing has been added to Mark's list of things he likes to do. This is a video of him dancing- and helping daddy play the bass.
