Sunny Days with Skyler

Little Cowgirl

Hi guys! It's Skyler again!!! I had the funnest afternoon ever yesterday and really REALLY wanted to tell you about it! It was so fun, you're going to be jealous you weren't there. (Really. You will be.)

My Grandpa Brad took me to see my 2nd Cousins (Alesa and Alan) ride their horses while they chased cows around. Mommy said they called it Team Penning, I think. It was so much fun, Cousin Alesa's little boy (Quinten) was there too. He is going to be 2 in October, so he's just a little bit younger than me. And Alan's little girl was there too, she's a lot older though. She is almost 3.

But I'm missing the really REALLY important thing.

Wait for it.

I know you're excited!

Ready?

Are you sitting down?

This is really good.

I got to ride a horse. Not one horse, I got to ride 2 horses!!

The Three Amigos

AI finally updated my family tree blog! (Although it's short...)

Yesterday we got to go hang out with Nathan and Taylor in Manitou (Joe needed a babysitter, and I was happy to help out!) I think all 3 kids had fun at the park!

We went up and down the slide countless times, collected 3 large piles of acorns, and just had a great morning!! Skyler was so worn out, she took a 3 hour nap!!

Dinner!!

We made the yummiest dinner tonight, and I really wanted to share it with you! We made Beer-Can Chicken with homemade BBQ sauce!!

It was delicious! And so I really wanted to share the recipe with you all! HERE it is, in case you're interested! (There are still a few great BBQing weekends coming up, after all!!)

Hello! (From Skyler)

Hi Everyone!! It's ME!!! Skyler! I wanted to take a quick minute to write and tell you that my Daddy is home! And that he and me played lots yesterday. We got these cool window stickers so Mommy can teach me my letters. I love the ABC song, so these are a lot of fun.

After we put the letters up, my Daddy started helping me jump! It was really fun! (And Mommy was there with her camera!)

I hope you are having as much fun as I am! (And if you're not, I would suggest you get a "Melmo" (Elmo) coloring book and a package of crayons. It will really make you have lots and lots of fun. )

Ok. Bye-Bye. See Ooo Later!

A Day in Denver!

We had to run Ryan back up to Denver to deliver his last load before he officially has his days off, so we decided to go up early and enjoy the day! We went to the Children's Museum and the 16th Street Mall! It was a great day, and we were all worn out at the end! (Unfortunately that didn't mean that Skyler slept in the next day *sigh* ) But I thought we'd share some of our favorite photos from the day!!
