patio fun

Ryan came home this weekend. So nice to relax on the patio and have a few brewsky's while trying to entertain the kiddo. LOVE our patio.

Ry and Cole, this bush only blooms once a year, not sure if we'll get to see another bloom or not:(

Cole screaming at something
going down the slide

BUBBLES!

water fun

The 50th Squadron had a playdate at the park downtown. Cole and I were invited to crash the party! I definitely had the "walmart baby" of the crowd. I over dressed him in jeans! So after he soaked them, I just took them off! NO BIG DEAL! He is loving the water and was not afraid to jump right into those sprinklers!

Cole's girlfriend, Avery Beth. They went home for awhile, while her daddy is deployed! We miss them already!
Cole and Emma!
