A quick visit from Auntie Holley.
Who knew a pair of hand-me-down soccer cleats would make this kid so happy?!
The last days of summer. Lunch at the Boathouse on a break from playing in the waves.
A little kinder bootcamp at the table.
His face.
Lolo and Sam
Lolo and Sam AND Thatcher ;)
Shhhhhhhh! When Samantha was at soccer practice in the 90 degree heat, we snuck over to the hotel next door and became guests. ;)
A quick stop back to our old stomping grounds, McConnell's, with Finn from Boulder.
We miss OVERPRICED McConnell's! We've got a yogurt place on the Mesa that we frequent way too much but the flavors all sort of taste the same. McConnell's wins.
Workout partner.
More beach days.
Playdate with the Stump girls and our NEW pool! Fancy, huh?
Lunch with this guy at Miso Hungry. P.S. I never can remember how he gets these scrapes on his face but he always has one. It is now mid-November and he is sporting a big scrape under his lip from getting hit with a hula hoop at school :(
More pool days.
Pool days with Lila.
Which turned into a beach day.
Which turned into the Boathouse.
I miss summer! :(
Sammy in charge of dinner one night.
Healthy turkey wraps.
My fashion stylists cutting their shirts into something new!
Oh Thatcher!
Summer movies!
Summer bike rides.
Summer scooter rides.
Evenings at Shoreline Cafe.
Neighborhood BBQ's with friends.
When you are huffing and puffing from stadiums and your daughter has lapped you and is doing handstands on the field below you....
Best $40 spent over the summer!
Summer BBQ with friends
Lolo had a playdate that lasted several days.

Our resort pool.
Dinner at the Scherman's
Luke turned 8!
Hair Waves.
This picture really REALLY makes me miss summer!
We had lots of fish taco barbeques this summer.
Outdoor dinners
Under our new lights!
Sometimes they are sweet to each other.
Thatcher's hair got the best blonde highlights this summer.
Thatcher with our little neighbor, "Roo" (Drew). His puddle jumper was necessary at all times. One minute he'd be on the sand and the next minute he'd be getting pummeled by a giant wave he'd fearlessly "swim" towards.
Painting at the Pirozzi house.
I can't believe Jill let this messy monster into her new house!
Sammy paddling out pretty far with our neighbors.
Headed to the beach!
August sunrises.
Another beach day.
Love these candid shots.
As you can see, we did this a lot this summer. Our water bill was kind of high this summer...
The randomness of Costco. Fruit and a pillow.
Everything is in excess at Costco!!!
