Emerald Pools






At Zion National Park we did the Emerald Pools hike. There are three different levels to hike to each having a pool of water. We made it to the 2nd one where you see Cooper playing in the water. The 3rd wasn't much longer, but we felt bad that Cooper was running a fever so we wanted to get back out of the heat for him.

Father like Son?





So what's the vote? Do we all agree that Trip looks like his dad? We think so. More than Cooper did. In real life Trip looks even more like his dad.

Ross Grandkids


This isn't the best picture mainly because of Cooper, but here on the Ross grandkids from the 4th of July. Tyrel has always told me how big Cooper's head is and I didn't think it was that big until he just had his 2yr well check and his head is in the 95%!!! K so it is big!! His height is in the 90% and weight his 50%. I can't believe he is already 2!! It was fun to be able to see Jayton for the 1st time. Besides of course my own kids, he is sooo cute!!!

Sunday Walk






Well yesterday we decided to go for a nice Sunday walk on this trail in the national forest really close to our house. Cooper loved it. He loved being in the woods and had fun jumping on stumps, throwing rocks, and picking wild flowers for mom. Trip had fun in the stroller and Tyrel and I enjoyed the nice cooler weather we have been having.

Summer Fun!!!!


The Grand Resort








 We spent the weekend at the Arizona Grand Resort where Tyrel's work put us up for a night and it had a water park. Cooper of course had a blast in the water. Tyrel and I took turns swimming with Cooper and watching Trip. 

Birthday Time at Bounce U











For Cooper's 2nd birthday we went to Bounce U. One plus of living by my two sister's is Cooper gets to share his birthday party with 3 of his cousins.  They have their birthday's within 4 days of each other. It's always fun to party with family!

4th of July and Ross Reunion











For the 4th of July we went to Pagosa Springs and had the scout breakfast, went to the parade, rode some carnival ride, and watched fireworks. Cooper loved the parade waving at everyone as they went by and during fireworks he would say "gone" every time there was a pause and "more" shortly after that. Then the pictures of Cooper in the baby pool and the little parade is from Tyrel's Grandpa and Grandma Ross' reunion in Bayfield. There were little carnival games and yummy food. It was so great to see everyone, we were bummed we couldn't stay late for the dancing but kids were exhausted  from the hot sun all day!! It was great though!! Tyrel also won the arm wrestling championship! I'm so proud! 

Trip's Baby Blessing









 Then to round off the fun weekends was Trip's blessing. It was wonderful and were glad we could do it in Pagosa with family.
