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.
