BRGR

A BRGR opened up near us and we went to try it out. They use grass fed meat so you know I am excited. It was pretty good except the burgers were kinda small and I likes me a big burger.

Gus #1

I came across these pictures yesterday. I might have already posted but here is the first Gus, with the blue collar, and his sister Tallulah. We had to give them away when we moved to NYC but they were so cute!

Just as a refresher, this is Gus II

And just because here's an old one of Miss E who had just turned 3. She was so chubby!!

US Open

Unfortunately I didn't actually get to go to a match but Elyse, her friend Sanya and I went to their kids day thanks to K dawg. (Can ended up getting to go...I was jealous) Bad part of the day, my water bottle got stolen. My nice Klean Kanteen one. Grr.

They had some activities for the kids before the concert started. This lady is awesome.

I mean awesome cuz she helped Elyse spin her plate on a stick. What?

Uhhh.....hmm.....

We had to wait FOR- EVER for the concert to start. It was HOT, but the prospect of seeing the Jonas Bros and Demi Lovato helped them persevere.

Much shrieking ensued when they took the stage.

Summer Installment #6: Guns

Cannon's friend Nick, who he met on his mission, took us to shoot guns after we went to Mt Evans. The only other time I have shot a gun was with Nick about 9 years ago so it was fun to give it another go. It was also really fun to meet Nick's wife Sarah who I knew from high school in UT. We weren't friends at all but when we made the connection a couple of years ago we became blog friends so it was great to finally meet and talk in person. Of course no pictures but she has 2 gorgeous girls.

I must admit that I was a pretty awesome shot with the handgun. The semi or whatever it is that I'm shooting at the top was a bit harder to aim. And Cannon, lets just say that if we need protection from a burglar, I will be the one wielding the gun.

Some of the people that came to the range looked like Rambo with all of their artillery. Which was a bit creepy.

Summer Installment # 5: Scenery

Colorado was beyond gorgeous. Can's friend took us up into the Mountains. We drove up to Mt Evans where the average summer temp is 41!

This is a lake on the way. Breathtaking.

The Mt Goats that live at the top of Mt Evans.

Brr!! Poor Elyse was having her bout with the flu so she was in the car. I just couldn't get over how gorgeous it was there.

Summer Installment #4: Boulder

Most of you probably know that Boulder is great. It is also extremely granola and filled with street performers. Good thing I'm a sucker for them, because they were everywhere.

Didgeridoo guy. He was gettin down. Movin his neck all over the place.

This guy was entertaining but not a good magician.

I got to participate in one of them, I threw the knives...yikes! There were more that we didn't get pictures of and even though I normally love street performing by the end of our trip we were sick of them.

It is always so funny to see the kids react to these guys. They always think they are hilarious no matter how cheesy it gets.

Summer Installment #3: Colorado

So I realize that this is only 3 months late but here is another summer installment.

After UT we went to Boulder, Colorado for a week. It was SO gorgeous!

This is my sister Alicia's backyard.

Mr Micah had his 1st birthday. It was special because I was with them one year ago when she gave birth to him! Because he is on a special diet we put some candles in a pear and he dug in.

Unfortunately we all got a little flu bug for a few days. Levi got it first. We knew he was sick when he just crawled up on the couch and zonked out!

While I was taking my turn being sick Can took the kids to Winter Park....isn't it gorgeous?

Love this picture! Levi is nervous and Elyse is having a blast!

The kids had so much fun getting to know Miss Sage.
