Splish Splash

Last week Kara & Ruby invited Enzo & I to go with them to a splash pad. I was super excited to take Enzo as I knew he would love playing in the water. It was a little windy but not horrible so the kids warmed up by playing on the nearby swings and playground. Enzo was a little dare devil and loved running through all the different water toys. We will have to go again when it is not windy and maybe a tad warmer. On our way home we stopped by a shaved ice place & enjoyed a fun treat. Thanks Kara & Ruby for inviting us.

He thought the drain was pretty neat as well

It was a bit more windy at our house. Yes that is our trampoline & no that is not our backyard. It luckily stopped in our backyard neighbors yard, but it did take out one of their rain gutters on their roof, so Matt is replacing that. Good thing that was all it took out. 

A camping we shall go


Since we missed out on camping last year (I refused to go unless I had a trailer, cabin or something similar for Enzo) we have been twice already this year. The first weekend (memorial day) we went with our friends Cory & Jamie. We found a really fun spot up a gorgeous canyon and set up camp. We had planned on staying 3 days 2 nights until it started raining on the 2nd day, so we went on a quick hike, saw the entire valley and then packed up camp and came back to our house to finish out the weekend rain free.  Enzo was a muddy mess by the time we got home, but he was loving life & all the dirt and puddles. 

The next weekend we went up a different canyon with our friends, The Hobson's. We were lucky to find a double spot that we would all fit in. Enzo & his friend, Ruby, enjoyed looking at all the bugs, plants, pinecones, sticks and of course found the water & mud. Again Enzo was a muddy mess this time by the time we got camp set up. He is all boy & loves making messes. It was a nice relaxing 24 hours in the wilderness. I remember how much I really do enjoy the outdoors & am so grateful that I have a husband and son that love it too. I have a feeling we will be spending lots of time camping this summer.

A Cruising We Shall Go...

Matt & I were able to enjoy a week cruise to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico with our friends, The Lewis'. It was a fun & much needed getaway.  Cabo is such a neat place to visit; its so warm, lively & the beaches are so calm & beautiful. We had a great time walking the streets & visiting all the shops. Matt of course loved bartering with the locals. The boys enjoyed a morning of scuba diving were they got to see a shark, lots of fish and marine life, while us girls enjoyed the fish & marine life by snorkeling. Cruising was a great adventure as well with constant entertainment and food. We enjoyed the week away, but both were super excited to see our little man when we got home. Thanks to our parents and siblings for watching Enzo while we were gone, you could tell he was well cared for & enjoyed every minute of being spoiled by his Aunts, Uncles & Grandparents. 

Formal Night (yes someone forgot our formal wear on the mainland)

So we improvised & weren't the most formal, but thats okay!
