On the Road Again . . .

 

We turned on our "Out of Office" reminders, Molly took off work and we found someone to watch Bear - as we packed up the car and set out west - for an epic week in Colorado, 
visiting places we've never been together! 

First stop - Colorado Springs!


Cheyenne Mountain Resort was beautiful! The perfect spot to 
spend our 1st 2 nights of our adventure!

Then, May Turned into June . . .

Our raspberry plants we potted in 2020 (split from Grandpa Pat's thriving ones in Omaha) finally took off this year - and we have SO many delicious raspberries!

Jazzoo (Zoo Fundraiser) with the Schlicks!

So much fun - and our favorite band was there!

Kate joined her dear friend, Lucy at the lake of the ozark for a weekend of fun!

Just chillin' . . . .


Lots of back porch nights . . . 


Molly went to Tennis Camp at Saint James 
on their brand new tennis courts!

S'mores with Caroline after swimming!

Sweet girls!

Bear just taking it all in . . .

Early morning sunrise walks . . .

Love having friends in the house on summer days!

Molly started driving by herself to work this summer!  (Gulp!) I feel like my heart is leaving the driveway!  So excited for her, but such a weird feeling as a Mama. 


Molly is working at Summer Salt Ice-Cream this summer (a local homemade ice-cream shop) and also babysitting a lot!  She is such a hard worker, applying all on her own and nailing her first "real" interview!  


Did I mention the raspberries!?

Baby birds hatched on our upstairs playroom windowsill . . .

Grandma Pat was in town and Molly drove us all to mass . . .

I hosted a few cocktail nights on the back deck . . .


Summer flags are up!

Kalyn came to town!!

Panzenella Salad prep for hosting friends for dinner on Saturday night . . .
