Blaire's Bachelorette Weekend!

Last weekend I was in Colorado for Blaire's Bachelorette weekend! It was fabulous! Friday night there were about 15 of us that showered Blaire with a lingerie shower, a yummy dinner and a night out dancing in Denver! Saturday the 6 bridesmaids and Blaire headed to Buena Vista, CO (where Leslie lives) to spend the day. We went to the hot springs for the afternoon, got massages from a friend of Leslie's while getting ready and then had a yummy dinner. Sunday we headed home. A quick trip with lots of laughing and little sleep. One month til' the BIG DAY!!!

Beach....all by ourselves!

Phil and I recently went to the beach for a week all by ourselves to celebrate our 5th anniversary!!! It was fabulous! We relaxed, hung out on the beach, ate good food, went on bike rides/walks, slept in and just enjoyed having alone time! The weather was awesome! We are so very appreciative of our parents who loved on Cooper while we were away. Head's up....most of our picts are self portraits :)

our lil' set up every day. will look much different when we have Cooper with us!

Helping Daddy Cut the Grass

Cooper loves to watch anyone with a lawn mower....especially his daddy! The other day he decided he wanted to help. Here are a few picts from Cooper and Daddy cutting the grass!

his very own lawn mower

 crawling down off the deck to help daddy

 seems to think he can handle it

 not quite tall enough so daddy had to help

decided he would rather play

 and of course waving bye bye

Heatco...celebrating 30 years!!!

Heatco (where Phil works) with his dad and brother just celebrated their 30th anniversary! What an accomplishment! We had a day full of fun.....complete with a jump jump, snow cones, a clown, games, food, and prizes! We are thankful Phil has been given the opportunity to work for such a wonderful company! Here are some pictures from our time celebrating Heatco last weekend!

The Hankinson crew

 Cooper was much more interested in the bouncy castle than taking a picture with us

so took one by ourselves!

 Rob & Marion - the reason Heatco is where it is today!

 a new favorite of my two fellas!

 with my sweet niece Ashley - one of the guys snapping picts took this of us
