The tale of the butterfly…

The kids and I have been going for walks in the afternoon. Hud rides his bike and I push Harper in the stroller. We have been walking down to the lakes and feeding the ducks (who are not interested in eating what we have at all!).  On this particular day, Hudson caught a butterfly! He was so excited and so proud:

He managed to ride his bike and hold on to that little guy all the way home.  Unfortunately, he held on a little too tight…and the poor butterfly perished by the time we got home.  It crushed poor Hud.  There were quite a few tears, but thankfully he found a lot of roly polies to make up for it. :)

Park Play Date

We had a fun play date with the Shelton twins! I love this sweet little park.

My cautious little girl got brave that day!

We took a little walk down to the beautiful pond area! (It is SO not beautiful, but a nice little walk nonetheless):

One of my most favorite pictures ever:

We got home and the kids decided to perform a little yoga:

Lazy Sunday

The next day we had a lazy day since little miss wasn’t feeling well.

Hud built a dinosaur valley:

Later I took Harps to urgent care because her fever spiked to 103.6 :(

I can’t flip the pic, but she fell sound asleep on me while we were waiting. :( Luckily, she rebounded quickly the next day!

Family day at Fossil Rim

We took a Saturday and hit up one of our favorite places! Fossil Rim!

I can always count on this girl for a smile:

Afterwards, Hudson wanted to eat “at the place with the animals on the wall” (Hammond’s)…Harps was super excited:

Thank you notes

My big boy signing his birthday thank you notes! I am so proud of how far he has come with his handwriting!

Urban Air

We checked out a cool new (to us) place a few weeks ago.  A trampoline place. The kids loved it!  Harper loved bouncing:

She did NOT love it when I jumped.

There was a huge foam pit that Hudson and Gatesey were big fans of:
