Mountain Biking

Well it was biking while in the mountains at least. We took Braedyn's new bike up to Winter Park and he just loved riding it all around. We also did a bit of swimming at the pool, but it was a little bit on the cold side so we didn't go too often.

 
 

Winter Park

After a few days in the Denver area we headed up to Winter Park for a few days of relaxing in the mountains. The village at Winter Park has really changed since we were there last with a new gondola and lots of new shops and restaurants. We headed to the alpine slide the first day we got there since we'd talked it up to Braedyn so much. He had a blast!

 
 
 

More Hiking

More hiking on the Mesa trail along Eldorado creek.

 
 
 
 

Hiking

Talisha ditched us all on Sunday afternoon to hang out wiht her friend Sandy, so Braedyn, Grandma, Grandpa and Daddy headed out near Eldorado Canyon for a short hike. We didn't get too far as the river is right at the start of the hike so we mostly just walked along, threw rocks in and then ended up jumping in as well.

 
 
 

4th of July

We headed up to the Sing household for a 4th of July party. There were a ton of other kids there and Braedyn just loved playing with them all. It was nice to see some friends from Colorado as well. We decided to forgo the fireworks in favor of getting Braedyn to bed at a decent hour so we headed back to Grandma and Grandpa's a little early.

 

Bike Riding

Braedyn has been wanting a "big boy bike" for quite a while now. Luckily Grandma and Grandpa found a little bike that is just Braedyn's size and had it waiting for him in Colorado. He took to it right away and has been really enjoying it and his only issue is that he wants the training wheels off.

 
 
 

Cousin Jaron

Braedyn really likes Jaron. She always spends lots of time with him and plays with him lots, at least when she isn't sick!

Bucket Brigade

Braedyn got to participate (sort of) in the bucket brigade. We all got signed up to compete in it and were excited for half a second. Lucky for us they took a really long time so we had to leave before our turn came up. Braedyn just loves anything that involves throwing water!

 
 
 

Fire Trucks

The Carpinteria-Summerland fire district recently celebrated it's 75th anniversary with a little festival in Carpinteria. We headed down for a bit to check out all of the firetrucks and see what was going on. Aunt Michelle, Stevii and Davis went with us.

Zoo Day

Another day at the zoo. This time with his friend Luke.

This is the look you see when you are about to get tackled by Braedyn.

Swim Lessons

Braedyn has been taking swim lessons at taking swim lessons at the Carpinteria City Pool and is starting to really enjoy swimming again. With the nice weather upon us we've been taking him to the YMCA a few days a week to swim as well so he's getting pretty comfortable in the water.

Grandma and Grandpa

Well it's been a while since they were here, but Grandma and Grandpa came for a visit on their way to Colorado. We're heading out to see them tomorrow, but we had a lot of fun while they were here.
