Colorado Day 2

This is the view from the street where we stayed in Ouray.

Silverton

The kids love to throw rocks into the water.

Colorado is beautiful and pictures don't do it justice! We are in love with the huge mountains and the green everywhere! We took a beautiful drive from Durango to Silverton and stopped in Silverton for some treats and throwing rocks in the river. It's a beautiful little town in the mountains.

Then we drove the million dollar highway to Ouray Colorado otherwise known as the Switzerland of America. We stayed in a nice cabin just outside the town.

Colorado Trip Day 1

We took a family vacation to Colorado to escape the heat! On the drive there along the Indian reservation was a place that had dinosoar footprints. We needed a break from driving anyways so we walked around and looked at all the footprints in the rocks. It looked pretty cool but not sure if they are for real. We also passed by Monument Valley but it was getting dark. We stopped for the night in Cortez Colorado and stayed in a Holiday Inn Family Suite it had 4 bunk beds and was pretty fun. It was probably about a 7 hour drive.

Look at these Dinosoar Footprints!

Our Newest Addition Anden Mark Buyack

Our little bundle of joy was born on June 8 at 12:28pm he weighed 8lbs 7.5 oz and 20" long. He was born at the Gilbert Mercy Hospital just 13 minutes after arrival!

Brett was a great support during the intense delivery....all natural! I was relieved it didn't last too long! Labor started around 10am but started getting intense around 11 and we had to get everything arranged and rushed to the hospital!

What a little miracle! I was so excited to meet our new little boy. He sure had a lot of dark hair more than my little girl Alydia! I'm now relaxing and enjoying a little one on one time with my little boy.

Grandma Hunsaker was very excited to meet him and has been very helpful with the other kids while I went to the hospital. It's great to have another wonderful mother nearby!

I'm so grateful to have Brett to help me in raising this little boy he is such a great Daddy!

Anden Mark Buyack....his first name was suggested by his sister Adalynn and we all liked it. His middle name is after his Grandpa Hunsaker who is a great example and support to us.

Adalynn and Allden were very excited to come to the hospital and see their new baby brother. They had to inspect every little part of him and asked lots of questions. Allden is excited to have another boy in the family.

Cabin Trip

We took a little weekend getaway and headed north to our cabin in Duck Creek Utah to escape the heat and spend some time together as a family. I hoped I wouldn't have the baby early in Utah.

We found a fun park and enjoyed a picnic lunch and took some fun pictures. The kids had fun playing with their cousins Patsy and Monroe. We also were there with Grandma and Grandpa Hunsaker and Grandma Pratt.

I was kicked back relaxing and all the kids jumped on me.

Alydia had fun picking flowers. She is 19 months old now and so much fun. She talks a lot!

This is the little stream that runs by our cabin. The kids enjoyed throwing rocks in.

This is the bridge over the river in the meadow by our cabin. We enjoyed the nice cool air as compared to home and I enjoyed relaxing with the family.

Peter Piper Pizza

We took the family to Peter Piper Pizza since we filled up the marble jar. We had pizza and had about 60 tokens we burned through. Alydia loved riding on the little merry go round.

The girls cashed in their tickets and got these silly teeth!

Alydia liked to drive the bus.

Allden had a great time on the merry-go round.

Grandma and Grandpa Hunsaker and Grandma Pratt also came to join us in all the fun.

Alana's favorite game is air hockey. She is our competitive one. We all had a great time!

Pictures of the kids

We had family pictures last Saturday and we took a few of our own but the kids were not cooperating at the same time. Adalynn loves to dress her little sister just like her.

Alana and Addy had fun playing with their cousins new bunny. Alana loves animals and wants to get a pet.

We tried to take pics of the kids before church and it's really difficult to get everyone to look and smile at the same time.

Alydia did not like Allden touching her!

Shooting guns in the Desert

Brett enjoys shooting guns! We went out to the desert earlier this month and shot some targets.

Alana is helping dad load the bullets.

Alydia did not like wearing the headphones!

Addy had fun shooting this little gun with Dad's help.
