Goings on....

So, it has been a while since I have blogged. We have been busy....
Here are some pictures from one of our many 7Peaks visits. Please notice the shark following Oliver. So cute... Oliver and Bryce at the kids pool---about to take Oliver down a slide.

Here is Oliver and I at the end of that slide. He is warming up to the whole slide thing....
Here is Oliver. We have been trying to get him to jump off of the side of the pool into our arms. You can see how he is still a little nervous...


Here is Oliver at home. He had pushed this ottoman from his room into our room and up to a drawer. He cannot get into this drawer on his own....and he had devised this method. I am amazed, daily, by his inventiveness.


Just too cute...we still have no idea where the blue eyes come from.
We also went to Boise recently and got to meet up with Rebecca and Crit.
More importantly: WE got to meet Ezra (Reeb's son) for the first time.
It was magical....

Rebecca and Ezra.

Oliver. Climbing the stroller.

Oliver and Ezra getting to know each other.

Critti and Ezra:
We were lucky enough to be treated to dinner at Crit's grandma's home. She is amazing. We gave her about 30 minutes notice that we were all coming for dinner. So--what did we show up to find? An amazing spread of baked chicken, huge cobb salad, home-made dressing and fresh fruit. She is amazing. She is almost 8o and she is a powerhouse. She called herself an "associate goddess"---stating that Crit, Reebs and I are original goddesses. We were quick to correct her that she was the ORIGINAL goddess and that goddesses begat goddesses. She was tickled with her new title.

Lovely woman.

Here we are, BFF's and babes. We missed you, MARY!!! SO MUCH.....


I should note that we we also got to see Budge, Ty and Andrea....it was wonderful to see them. Thank you, Budge for your hospitality. We love you!

You guys have been busy! It looks like you're having such a great time.

Oliver is so cute, and its really no surprise that he's a little smartie...being Bryce's son he's likely to be a smartie pants too.

I can't believe Oliver is almost 1. I absolutely love that stage where they are exploring everything, coming up with ideas on their own, being naughty without really knowing it, and still too young to get mouthy. I am sure you guys are enjoying every moment, as you should!

Smart Oliver!! I just realized that he'll be a year old in what, a week?!? WOW! That year flew by! He's adorable!
