Washington

I'm way behind on blog posts...hence just getting around to posting pictures from our trip to Washington to visit Lulu and Papa John in early June :) We had an awesome time although we missed many of the beautiful sunsets because they just happen too late and we couldn't stay awake til after 10 most nights :)

Happy Father's Day

Wonderment

Cheyenne Mountain Zoo!

During Grandma Sheila's visit we loaded up the car with part of the Smith/Krause crew and headed to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo. Adam had never been to the zoo and we had heard amazing things about this zoo set into the side of the foothills :) Here are a few of the highlights...

 Adam's 'I'm going to need botox at 12' look.

 Jackson getting his ears cleaned out by Mr. Giraffe.

 Feeding the giraffes is one of the main attractions...Adam doesn't quite understand why this is fun.

 Our tigers-Emma and Jackson

 Always happiest walking

 Confused about the carousel.

Happy and tired after a great day at the zoo!

HOT!

This is Adam's model pose...however, most male models go for the tan look...

Grandma Time

My mom was visiting for the past week so once again Adam was spoiled rotten and so were we :) Adam got to stay home with Grandma while Jon and I and our friends Anne and Jeff took a weekend trip to Steamboat. It was so great to get away for a weekend and know that Adam was in good hands.

 Here he is enjoying his new favorite book "Trucks" (on the new patio furniture)

 Here is how Anne and I spent a portion of our stay in Steamboat :)

And here we are post half marathon (our actual reason for going to Steamboat). I finished in 1:50 which is my PR by about 3 minutes!

The Calm Before the Storm

Our summer has been very busy so far and I have multiple posts with all the fun stuff that we have done so far, however, for now...here is how our mornings start :)
