Summer Excursions

Looking back through our summer blogs and pictures, I realize just how busy we have really been. My goodness, could we pack any more big events into one summer?!? We have had some time in the past few weeks just to enjoy summertime.

Cecilia got a backyard pool for her birthday, and we've had a few days to play in it. She loved to splash around, and move her toys. It's just deep enough and wide enough though, that Mommy has to go swimming in it too.
We also got to go to a neighborhood pool with my MOPS group and play with all the other kids. Cecilia was content playing with the noodles and tubes.We ventured out to the Denver Zoo with Grandma Cheryl. This was long overdue. We talked about doing this "sometime this summer" back on Mother's Day. We had such a good time. We were a bit rushed because we went between naps, but we got to see all of the important and exciting animals.

Cecilia and I went on our first trip to the Children's Museum with Amanda and Jace. Before they arrived, Cecilia and I played on the playground. She wasn't to fond of the slides, but she liked the tire swing and the big rocks. Her favorite was the car that she could "drive".
We had so much fun in the "Creepers & Crawlers" room. My friend Emily gave us some "$1 gets you in" coupons, and that is about all I would pay at this age. There were really no other rooms that our little ones could enjoy. In the future, this will be a place that we frequent often enough to warrant getting the annual pass.
We also took Cecilia to her first Circus. We went to the Zoppe Family Circus out at Mile High Marketplace. It was perfect for her. She loved all of the animals, the dog show was her absolute favorite! It was a one ring circus with about a dozen different acts. We had such a good time!
