Apricots Galore

I have sooooo many apricots on my tree this year, I can't keep up with them! I canned some apricot butter yesterday and dried the rest of them in my food dryer. It looks like I have a ton more on the tree too.

Hold still, I am trying to give you a hug Cousin!

Water Park

On Tuesday we took the kids to the water park, it was pretty cold. Of course the one day we decide to go was a cold day in July! They had fun for a little while anyway.

Amaya's Visit

Our Friends and their little girl Amaya came to visit and stayed one night last week. It was so good to see them, Amaya is 2 months now and getting big.

On Sunday I met my friend Kara out of town for a hike and then we ate lunch. She carried the little guy for me most of the way because as you can see, she is in really good shape!! She had done a half ironman triathlon the day before and still wanted to carry him!

Look at that belly! Too many snacks I guess:)
