Ice Blocking

We were at Peterson Park for my nieces birthday party and some one left their ice blocks at the bottom of the hill and we couldn't let them go to waste ; )
 Chloe's 1st time
 
 She giggled the whole way down and wanted to go again
 Getting ready to race. We even had a friendly little girl start racing with us
 On your mark, get set, GO!
 Not sure if Cody is showing off or trying to keep his balance!
Mason's 1st time, we were going lightening fast!

Gavin and his shadow
Masonater
 He was a little timid at first but then was having fun
G-Man
That's Gavin under all that water
Chloe spent a lot of time on my hip hanging onto my arm for dear life. She did not like it at all for most of the time until Madi came along
Chloe loves Madi and Madi got her to at least play in the water a little bit
Gavin, Alyssa, Isaiah, Mason and Maycee
Mason, Maycee, Kessler, Luke, Isaiah and Gavin

I caught Gavin getting warm on his towel
He wanted to play dead while I took his picture. He even let his tongue hang out for the full effect
Taking a break
Madi and Alex
They were having a blast and you can totally tell by just looking at them!

Calamity

For our MMSC summer party we headed to Calamity on Palisades Reservoir. I only work there 1 or 2 times a month now, but they still included me. Thank goodness because we had a blast!
Gavin, Mason and Ryver (Raini's son) blowing bubbles
Hanging out at camp waiting for our turn to go white water rafting. Raini and I swapped kids so we each had a sitter, I'm pretty sure I got the better end of the deal!
The picture is totally blurry but let me explain. I found a really big and cool spider web and was showing the boys. Ryver couldn't see it so I put my hand behind it so that he could see it better and this HUGE spider (it's body was bigger than a dime) came running out to the middle of the web and totally freaked me out!! I screamed, the boys screamed and then we all laughed. I guess Spidey didn't like me messing with his web.
Gavin and Ryver "sizing" each other. I told Gavin that Ryver was taller and he kept wanting to re-measure hoping things would change. Mason had to copy his big brother like always.
Picking Huckleberries for pancakes
Chloe was helping too, but they were going straight into her mouth instead of the cup
This girl is NOT afraid of dirt!!
 The boys racing their trucks up and down the hill

White Water Rafting on the Hoback
I was so happy we had the chance to go again because Cody missed out last time when we took Gavin
Me and My Lover Boy
Ian and Emily
We spotted this guy (or gal) along the way

Cody nice and soaking wet after the Big Kahuna
I don't look it but I got pretty wet too
 Ian, Keri and Emily

To see our pics on floatographs (which you really should because they are super fun and it's no wonder I found a fish in my mouth when it was over) click HERE.

 Boating
Mommy, Mason & Chloe
Mason and I out on the inflatable jet ski. Gavin didn't want to go until he saw Mason on it with me and then we went. Gavin and I fell off as we were getting pulled back in and he loved it. We raced back to the boat.
