what's up??

I realize that the blog has been a bit neglected lately. We've been busy....

I've been teaching lots and lots of Jazzercise....
the girls have been in Kid's Camp all summer...
and David is working like a dog...

We've had time for some fun too.
If you gotta work hard, you gotta play hard too!

Last weekend, we went on our first family hike.
1.34 miles in Lory State Park is not too shabby for little legs!

food {as art}...and more

Photobucket
Miss M made these treats all by herself from measuring to mixing to pouring, frosting and decorating. I just put them in the oven. They're cupcakes baked in ice cream cones. So cute! She entered them into a "bake-off." Check out some of the other entries:

Good ole Uncle Sam. These must have taken a lot of time to put together!

The statue of liberty.

Oh, this one was delicious. Not only beautiful, but scrumptious as well.

Loved the berries on this one.

Everyone's standing around for the judging of the bake-off. Quite the crowd, huh?

We enjoyed some face painting...

July 4th bike parade

Time for our bi-annual bike parade out in Ft. Collins. Check out what David made:

It's a bird, it's a plane...it's a submarine! Most people thought it was a boat, but hey that's ok. Check out the periscope A is holding. It's really a submarine. If you're curious how he did it, don't worry, I'll post a "making of" set of photos too.

Cute little K. She's getting so big! You may remember her from last fall when I took her one-year pics. Love that hair!

The girls had a lot of fun, and were quite proud. They won the Grand Prize purple ribbon for the entire parade. Go, David!


And, if you really want to see more photos, here's a little slideshow for you:
