Second summer.

Since this is my second summer, I am becoming quite an expert on how to enjoy this season. If you want to know how you too can make the most of your summer days, allow me to give you some suggestions.

image

Install a pool in your backyard.

image

Install a slide for that pool.

image

Plant some flowers. Then don’t touch them because it will make your mom mad.

image

Decorate the flagstone walk with chalk. But don’t eat the chalk because it doesn’t taste good.

image

Run through a fountain on your local walking mall.

image

Have a picnic dinner in the park.

image

And always take a moment to enjoy the summer sunset.

Now get out there and enjoy your summer. I’m certainly enjoying my second one so far!

Mountain getaway.

I love when we leave our mountains for a little break and go to the mountains. Last weekend we did a few new and different mountain things.

I learned the basics of fishing.

And we went over Rabbit Pass (I love that name) to a town named Steamboat. It has waterfalls, cowboy stores and a ski resort without snow.

I love the high country, even without the sparkly snow!

Girls weekend.

This last weekend we visited mom’s friend Aunt L. We flew on a plane, then we roadtripped to the ocean, and it was super fun!

The first stop we made was to a coffee shop owned by a friend of theirs.

image

Then we spent a very very very long time in the car.

image

This long time in the car was puncuated by sweet treat stops…

image

And phone calls from Dad.

image

But the reward for all my patience was the beach!

image

We all enjoyed the warm water and sand.

image

We also saw a bunch of animals, like turtles and snakes!!!

image

Some turtles live in yards.

image

And some turtles live in water.

image

And some turtles are sick and are getting better at the turtle hospital.

image

And snakes are not soft like Twizzle.

Mom and Aunt L enjoyed some nasty oysters. I ate the crackers.

image

Then there were a few old fountains in old cities,

image

A few more calls to dad,

image

Then we said goodbye to Aunt L and took a plane home.

image

Miss you already Aunt L!!! Thanks for such a fun weekend!
