This week we had a fun visit from our BFFs in Colorado.
We were very busy bees and did a ton of activities.
Monday we went to Grapevine Mills Mall to do some back to school shopping. W got some precious things from Gymboree. I can't even stand it. Since it's going to stay 100+, I got some short outfits that should last until...oh, say...November. We also took the kids to Rainforest Cafe, which was absolutely fascinating for everyone. We had a gorilla that shook a tree when the storms came right by our table, and Dub couldn't stop looking at it!
What is that gorilla doing? What is going on here?
Tuesday we went berry picking at Blueberry Hill farm in Edom, followed by a visit to Dairy Palace. Very nice. We made blueberry jam from our pickings.
With all of those leftover berries, we also made white chocolate blueberry cookies and blueberry banana bread. Plus, we ate a ton outright.

Then, parents went out to dinner to celebrate our collaborative efforts. What a night.

Wednesday was a pool party at Gabby's house. It was the perfect end to the day with hot dogs and hamburgers on the grill. Everyone loved swimming, even W put on a show. But most of the show was how he didn't want Gabby out of his sight - even for a second.
Wyatt the fish - he's gotten so much better at swimming!
Thursday we toured the Museum of Nature and Science.
They have a great play area for kids - broken up into age groups, which is very helpful.
We had a nice time playing with all of the gadgets.
Come join us at the museum!
Trucks on the wall? This is blowing my baby mind!
Let me see how much of this germ infested surface I can cram into my mouth!!
Look! There are a million of me!
Man, I'm exhausted. I'll just rest on his curvy mat for a minute.
We finished our day up at the CO-OP, preparing for the Fall. Everyone got a little something to prepare for Game Day!

This morning our friends left, and W has spent the whole day resting and getting back into our routine.
Ah!! Book and Milk in my chair. Perfect.
I know we will all miss our Colorado entertainers, but we sure loved having them here with us. From baby bath time to orange slice martini's, we lived it up!
Orange Slice - Day One - froo froo glass with sugared rim
Orange Slice - Day 4 - lets not fool around!
