Museum Trip - July 10th 2013

The next day, we went to the museum.  The boys have really enjoyed having all these passes this year. Gives them variety! Keeps me sane.

This was their first time checking out the Kids Discovery Zone. To be honest, everything in there was a little young for them but they had fun touching stuff which doesn’t normally happen all too often. Here, they were able to see the inner workings of a piano. Pretty cool!

Enoch was in heaven here! Digging for dinosaur bones! He was bummed that you couldn’t actually take the bones out but he still enjoyed it. They did this for a good twenty minutes. I had to drag them out.

This is one of my favorites parts of the museum. I love seeing how big the dinosaurs were compared to my kids!! Pretty scary! Haha.

Then we discovered the splash park behind the museum.

Selfie’s outside!

Travis was a bit pouty.

And Enoch loves taking selfies!

This guy is so fun!

Thank you Denver Museum of Nature & Science! You never disappoint!

I love the naps that happen on the way home. They’re pretty much guaranteed to happen.

Zoo Trip - July 9th 2013

We go to the zoo quite a bit and it really never gets old. The kids love it, I love it. Its relaxing and great exercise.

We met the new snow leopard Misha. What a cutie! She climbed up there all by herself.

Leopards have to be one of my favorites. They’re so pretty!

Giraffes, chilling in the shade. Love these guys!

A cute little gerenuk! I love these little guys too!

And of course, the beautiful elephants are always a favorite.

Cutie pie Gwen! Loves going to the zoo!

Me and my Little Doxeys! They’re so much fun to hang out with.

This kid sleeps all the time. All. The. Time. I envy the little guy. Snore on Travis, snore on.

This is how he sleeps WITH Joe & I IN the bed. Really kills our backs. Can’t wait until he’s a teen. I’m totally sleeping in his bed with him and rolling all over the place. I’m sure Joe will join me too. Gah.

The girls are ready for church!!! Sunday Selfie!! HAHA.

She really likes the straps on my bag.

Sleeping, AGAIN.

She’s suppose to sleep all the time.

Snuck a picture of Enoch snacking.

Yeah, this is all she has ever done with a chupa (pacifier). I’m okay with that. No braces for Gwen!

Sweet baby girl.

Alphabet Cereal! Yum!

Sleeping together.

Don’t worry, I put her up there. I stayed with her the entire time. Calm down. She loved it!

Gwen loved being swaddled. If they made swaddle wraps big enough, I would swaddle her until she was 12. She slept SO good in those wraps.

Surprise Haircut July 2013

Enoch came to me one afternoon and said his hair had been bugging him, it kept getting in his eyes, so he just cut it. He was tired of it he said.

So I look at him and he’s cut his hair in ONE spot, to the scalp. It made me laugh. So we buzzed it all off because there just was no fixing it.

Enoch usually has a small meltdown when we cut his hair, he claims it hurts. This time though, he didn’t really mind it. I think he was just ready for a new do.

I love Travis’s face in the background, so funny!

Enoch looks good with long or short hair! Love this kid!!

4th of July - July 2013

We had a really fun 4th of July! It was a good year and we did a lot.

I dressed Gwen up all red, white, and blue! She looked so cute! This dress is from Katrina, what a sweetie!

Cutest little slippers ever.

And yes, I dressed up to match Gwen. I just couldn’t help myself. It is so much fun to have a little girl.

We went to the 4th of July breakfast for our ward in the morning. We watched them raise the flag and we said the pledge of allegiance and sang the National Anthem. It was awesome.

Then we we headed to the theater! We saw Despicable Me 2! It was SO good and so, so funny! We all enjoyed it.

The boys had to pose with their favorites at the theater.

On our way to the Outlaws 4th of July game! Enoch was zonked before we even left Aurora.

Travis was pumped!

Hanging out, pre-game time!

The boys up to their usual antics.

Can’t keep their hands off each other! Bonnie & Lawry came to this game with us. It was so much fun!

Gwen and her Daddy.

So this was one of the many fireworks displays they had. It was an amazing show! I believe there were over 30k fans in the stands. It was awesome.

Funny story though. The boys were so excited for the fireworks but once they turned the lights off in the stadium, Travis started to freak out. He did not want to be there and he wanted to leave right now. So he started screaming. Even though it was pretty loud in the stands, Travis was louder. And then the fireworks started! OH MAN! He was screaming as loud as he could to get him out of there and to turn those things off! I had to carry him half way up the stand to get away from the noise and then I held him with his ears covered for the remainder of the display. He really liked how they looked but he hated how loud they were. And he was pretty sure they were going to land on him. It really scared the poor little guy. Hopefully he grows out of it because we really enjoy fireworks shows! Haha. In the end, on the way home, he couldn’t stop talking about the fireworks. So I think a small part of him enjoyed it.

We really had so much fun at this game and their fireworks show was really great, it will be hard to beat in the future!

Thanks Outlaws, for an awesome night!
