No picture, but today at soccer practice Levi scored his first goal in a real game! A monumental event. He's quite the little go-getter. He was SO excited.

Camping pt. 4

Another camping weekend at the start of August with Rob, Lulu, Scott and Renee and the gang of kids! We had a great spot right on the Poudre River outside of Ft. Collins.



Levi had been on a bike with training wheels for a short time, but he hopped on Roxi's pedal bike, Uncle Rob gave him a push, and he was off! He was riding like a pro instantly.

All the kids had a blast riding their bikes around the campground!

Camping pt. 3

More camping fun with two other families at the end of July near Buffalo Creek. The kids had a blast together and the grownups got some quality mountain biking in!!

The gaggle of kids!

The Moms got out for an awesome ride (then the Dads did!)
Alison, Jen and Krista

Levi and Ella were a little smitten with each other:)

The kids listen intently to one of Mark's stories
