Summer Happenings

Well, I wanted to show some more pictures of what we have been up to this summer, but I keep going back to the fact that Baby Cohen just celebrated a year here on earth!  I just can't get over the fact that Cohen is one year old!!!!  So, the first set of pictures are some pictures of my big boy!  I just can't believe he is so BIG!  I might be obsessive in my blogging for awhile  until it sinks in that my baby is one and he is continuing to grow up!!!!!  Here is some more recent pictures of my handsome boy:







 Cousin Boston came to visit us in Ohio!  We were so excited to have visitors and see our family!









 Cohen loves to swim in his pool and we have had some pool parties!!!


Cohen got to swim with two beautiful girls, Eden and Melody!!!


They are so sweet to Cohen!  He is lucky to have some good friends!!!




We have had a short, fun summer!  We have done a lot of traveling and have actually had some visitors to our own home in Ohio!!!!  We have been to Colorado, Utah, and Idaho already this summer!  We have had cousins visit!  We have friends coming this very weekend, in which we are so excited!  We will be going to Kansas and Colorado in September! We also plan on making a trip to Kirtland and Cedar Point soon!  Stay tuned!  We hope everyone is enjoying their short, fast-paced summers!!!!

Helllllooooo Coloradooooo!!!!!


This was Cohen's second trip to Colorado!!! Cohen was only 8 weeks old the last time everyone saw him...so needless to say, EVERYONE was excited on BOTH ends!!!  We started off the weekend with another birthday party for Cohen Monster!!!!!  It was so much fun!!

The Birthday Boy...Round Two!!!!

Aunt Shawna, Cohen, Cousin Addison, and Aunt Sarah


Aunt Shawna made some monster marshmallows for the party!




 Cohen's second round of cake...and it is CHOCOLATE this time!!!

 Cohen's first time on the tube!  He didn't like his jacket at first, but then he warmed up to the idea of cruising in the water with mommy and grandpa!!!

 Cohen got to go visit my Grandpa and Grandma!  This was a special time because the last time we were in Colorado Grandpa couldn't see.  Recently, Grandpa has had successful eye surgery and is now able to see really well!  It was very special!!!

Cohen and Dad and Grandpa and Grandma's!

Cohen LOVES animals!!!! This is Cohen and Phebe!!!


Cohen and his Great Grandma Hartshorn!!!!

 Cohen and Great Grandpa Hartshorn!

Cohen LOVES ALL animals!   His Grandpa bought Cohen a miniature horse!  His name is Little Buck!  I kept calling the poor thing Uncle Buck!! HaHa!  Anyways, Cohen loved the horse, he is just not thrilled with the idea of riding it!  Maybe next time we can get him on there!!!








These last pictures will give you an idea of how much fun Cohen had playing with everyone, seeing all the animals, and just being the center of attention!  He loved it!!!

Cohen, what were you doing in the corner?












We had such a wonderful time with our family!  A special thanks to Dad and Laura for flying us home and giving us this chance to make some more wonderful memories!  We already missed everyone the moment we got on the plane!  However, the good news is we are homeward bound again next month for Kelby's wedding!  Woot!  Can't wait to see everyone again!  Love you all!!
