Summer - start of Fall 2009

Aryanna at Pueblo Reservoir - It was HOT that weekend.

Playing in the sand kept me very busy!

October 09 - Don't you think mommy's hiking boots fit me better than my own shoes? I think it's the PJs that make the outfit...

Ralph sometimes rides in my jacket while I play outside.

My favorite new word "Ball!"

"This water is cold but boy is this fun!"

"Whoo hoo....awsome Uncle Brad."

I love hats. I have a stack in the closet that I wear everyday.

Just chillin'.

"Dude this is the life, wait where's my milk..."

"I can't reach the petals but it's still fun."

Summer hail storm. It looked like snow.

Ice cream after hiking...yum, yum...

Hiking at Stanley Canyon - Colorado Springs - We thought this was going to be an easy hike but it was pretty hard especially since Rodger was carrying Ary.

Some of the hike was pretty steep. On the left is a pretty decent drop off. Rodger had to keep bobbing up and down to grab the rocks but Ary loved it. Every time he would dip she would say "ooooo" and smile. I (Amy) am afraid of heights so it was one of those hikes where I was nervous but Rodger and Ary loved it.

Sandbox end of summer

"Hi world, I'm ready, lets' go!"

Mommy and me.
