The End of Summer

I am not ready for summer to be over but it has been an enjoyable one filled with many fun activities with Parker.  I was in summer classes but had a great opportunity to spend a lot of time enjoying the weather and playing in the sun with Parker.

He participated in his first Soccer program at Little Kickers and we enrolled him in Tball on the Army base.  Both sports he seemed to enjoy and did well at.  The zoo continued to be a place we visited frequently along with the spray park.

We took another annual trip to the family cabin in Estes Park.  Parker loves to feed the chipmunks so we took him up on the gondola where they are usually plentiful, however they seemed to be very scarce and hard to find.  Non the less Parker enjoyed trying to find them.

In August we spent a week in Maine visiting Nicks family and friends.  Parker enjoyed the tractors and golf cart at Lynn and Arthur's house and played his first game of put put with Steve and Jeannie.  Parker and I stayed a night in Boston with my friend Emily and her daughter Ella.  We enjoyed the beach and catching up since I have not seen her in a few years.

Every year there is a balloon classic and we finally ventured out to watch the balloon glow one evening.

The Race For The Cure 5k run took place at Garden of the Gods and Parker and I participated for the first time.  He was a good boy in the stroller which I was concerned about how he would be as he has not been pushed in a stroller in over a year.

We had professional pictures taken for Parkers third birthday....a little late though

That about sums up our summer and I wish I had been better about updating the blog over the past few months.  Now that I have decided to upload pictures to shutterfly I hope to keep the blog updated more frequently so I don't forget so easily what we have been up to. 

We hope you have all enjoyed your summer!!
