Colorado

So as our summer comes to a close (Luke goes back to work on Monday), we fondly remember our great trip to Colorado (last week). We got to spend a lot of time of Luke's parents, brother and sister-in-law. We also got to see some of his college buddies and their families as well as Victoria's little sister and her son. Such a great trip - constantly surround by the beauty of Colorado and the love of great friends and family.

Dillan isn't quite crawling yet but he is definitely mobile, even is he has to drag his face along the carpet to get where he wants to go. He just started sitting up on his own and has learned to press his lips together in a raspberry/"G" sound - which makes us all laugh.

I put up 160ish new pictures. Hope you enjoy!

Family Fun Day

After a long sleepless night, our family fun day started out with a great mid-morning nap for D and me while Luke went for his weekly long bike ride. Image yourself riding the back streets of Fort Ord only to "accidentally" end up on the course of a real bike race. As you ride along, people are cheering for you, handing you free drink and food and not seeming to notice your lack of a race number. Luke was feeling very fortunate and found himself wishing for this support every Saturday morning. Just when he was at the top of the world, he noticed that all of the racing bikers who had been flying past him were women. Pride cometh before the fall...

We headed up to Watonsville for the much acclaimed Strawberry Festival. Some strawberry glazed chicken, shortcake, popcicles and milk shakes. We also had the great privelge of seeing some revolutary protestors. They marched around for much of the festival shouting What do we WAnt? "Revolution" Whose our leader? "ROnald Reagan"...maybe I heard them wrong - or maybe they don't know he's passed away?

Dillan cut his two bottom front teeth this week and is sooo close to crawling we are scrammbling to finish the last of our baby proofing. As I write this he is slowly inching his way to, up and over Dakota.

All and all, a great day with my amazing men.
