Memorial Day Weekend

Slowly, but surely, I WILL get caught up on blogging! Back to Memorial Day weekend. After we spent Saturday up at the Denver Temple, we spent the rest of our weekend the the Jewell family. Our barbecue on Sunday included the kids riding around in various Barbie vehicles...

Of course, Abram felt it easier just to push some of them...

The kids love playing with the Jewell's dogs... Brewser and Barley. And here Mali is with James. At this point she was loving him. Although, now I think she just loves to fight with him!

Monday we took their boat out to Pueblo Reservoir. The girls LOVE boating!


As does Abram! We have gone out on the boat quite a few times this summer and remark every time how fortunate we are the the kids are SO good on the boat. Pretty darn uncommon to have a 6 month, 16 month, 2 year, and 3 year old behave so well for hours out on the water!

Lest any of you wonder if David ever smiles... all you have to do is get him out on the water tubing and he's happy as a clam!

The girls watching "Papa" tubing. Adorably, Kaela calls David "Papa" also...

Malia sitting in the tube with Papa...


David at the helm. Someday we WILL have our own! In the meantime, he gets his kicks out of trying to throw James off the tube...

The girls hanging out in the tube...

Papa being naughty and sharing his DP with Abram...

This line up was back in one of the coves... I found it amusing...

On the way home Abram was so tired he was being a NUT! Silly boy...

Good times, good times! We love hanging out with the Jewell family. True to Army form, they will be moving soon. Guess I better get used to making friends, and then having them move! In the meantime, we will enjoy our time with them. The girls' birthdays are only a few days apart so we will be having a big combination party in a few weeks. Fun, fun!

David looks like a natural behind the wheel of the boat :) Looks like really fun times. It would be fun to have your own boat wouldn't it. Patience, I have to keep telling myself.
