Family reunion

Family reunion

first taste of snow....literally

Hangin' with the Uncles in Fresno

We went to the family reunion this past weekend and I enjoyed seeing uncle Mike and aunt Tina. Uncle Mike always has nice colourful shirts and buttons and he is really fun to sit with.

Uncle Jimmy is great fun! He sneaked in a little kiss.

We went to the corn maze and didn't get lost. I helped alot by pointing the way to go. I loved the horse cart ride too.

Nana was here for a few weeks and we played alot

I'm a big girl kind of eating on my own....

my very first ice cream cone

this is my first ice cream and it was vanilla creamcicle. It was yummy but I really preferred Nana's raspberry sorbet. We ate it at Red Trolley.

I love my bear.

oh things are just too much for me right now...

Beginning of a crawl??

Mama was washing the windows outside when she turned around to find me crawling! this is the best she could capture on cue.

Gift from Ms. Meghan

Our neighbor, Meghan, came back from vacation in Alaska & brought me a polar bear!

Day out on August 5th

Grandma, Grandpa, mom and I went out for the day on my actual birthday. We visited the Colorado state capital building (which shockingly my mom had never done!) and the zoo. My grandpa walked straight into the governor's office and asked if we could see say hello to the governor as it was my 1st birthday. The secretary was super nice and went in to see. He was "on the phone" so we got a sticker and a picture of a moose instead. Next time!

Grandpa and Grandma are in town

Our own swimming pool!

Dad set up our own swimming pool last weekend! It's so cool and refreshing and since I LOVE water so much, it's a real treat.

Sunflower Farm

I spent the morning on Saturday with Kay, Alex, Reese and Miles. We went to this dreamy farm in Longmont called Sunflower Farm. There were sheep, baby pigs, baby horses, llamas, & goats to pet. And running all over the place were chickens, turkeys & peacocks! I loved all the animals but I have to say I spent the most time in the sandbox just playing with the sand. Ms. Reese and I got to sit in a real tractor and play wth all of the handles and things. It was so cool!

Happy Independence from the British....

Love, Aida

Axeline and I

So mom's very dear Swedish friends, Anne-Sophie, Helena and Helena's daughter, Axeline, came to England to visit while we were there. It was so great to meet little Axeline and I just couldn't help pulling poor Axeline's hair whenever I got a chance. She liked me anyway, thank goodness.

Trip to Woolacombe Beach - Another First

My first trip to the seaside was to the British Seaside. it was Sunny, hot and I had a lovely time...

My Tree

This is the tree that Mum, Dad and Nana planted for me. It is to remember my grandpa George. He loved trees and so do I as you can see.
