July 2011

The last week of July Eliah and I flew out to visit my parents. My sister and three of her kids drove down for the week as well. I wish I got more pictures but it was a bit tricky trying to work my camera while dealing with a toddler that wants to go and do all the time :) But he is so much fun, so that is okay.

Tuesday we visited my mom's parents. They only live 15 min from my parents so it was nice to see them and have them see Eliah again.

Wednesday night we all went to the Bar D Chuck Wagon. This is a tradition in my family. Every year we go up to Durango, CO to the Bar D. It is a fun little place just a little out of town that they serve a "cowboy dinner" and put on a show. They also have little shops set up to look like an old western town. It is such a fun time! Eliah did great. He had a few melt downs since it was past his bed time but he and I waked at the back of the show and he had a good time. He would clap and laugh at all of the songs they performed.

The whole gang. Joshua, Shamarie, Ashley, Caleb, Preston, Jimmy and Daniel. I guess my parents were around somewhere.

Then on Thursday we went to Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat at the amphitheatre by my parents house. Eliah and Joshua stayed home with my dad. So they could run around and play and so Eliah could go to bed at a decent hour. The musical was great! I had a wonderful time just hanging out with my family!
