Catch Up

The summer has flown by and I slacked on blogging for a few weeks. So, I will attempt to catch everyone up on what all has happened in our little world...

Reid attended the Cyclone Football Camp again this year. He walked away with 4 awards and was pumped. I can't wait to see this little guy play flag football again in the fall, plus Josh is going to coach so it should be a very interesting season!

Tug of war competition



Josh and I snuck away for a weekend to Omaha to watch our beloved Florida Gators in the final round of the College World Series. Sadly, they choked, but enough about that. We had a great time and are still proud of our Gators!



I always have a wonderful time with this hottie!



We took these two cuties to a Travelers' game in Little Rock. The new stadium is so nice, but so different that good ol' Ray Winder.

Can't go to a Travelers' game without a picture with the mascot, Shelly.

Two more weeks and back to the school grind. Reid reminded us of the bright side to school starting again...RECESS! If only they had that for adults too...

Vacation 2011

Vacation 2011...so much fun and so many memories. I could write a book about all the fun times we had in Wyoming and Colorado; however, I will give you a story of pictures instead. Enjoy our trip...we sure did!

We started off in Wyoming with a family reunion on Josh's paternal grandmother's side. Reid and Josh's Aunt Judy

We did some river fishing with Grandpa Chuck (Josh's Dad)

Our fishing spot...Green River.

We visited the local Rec Center a few times where they have an A-M-A-Z-I-N-G indoor pool area.

I kept running into these two studs at the pool. Cousin Cody and Reid-man

Yep, they even had an indoor rock wall in the pool...awesome, right?

Next, we spent a day on the boat with Mimi, Papi and Erin!

Papi and Reid reeling in their fish.



Family pictures...a tradition every time we make it home to Wyoming.

My favorite pic of the day! Such handsome 'fellas!

After we left Wyoming, we decided to take our time driving back to Arkansas. We stopped in Denver, CO and soaked up some more of the cool weather which was bliss. We stayed at the Omni Interlocken Resort and definately plan to make a return trip there.

The pool area...which was open 24 hours!

While in Denver, we took Reid to Mid-Air Adventures, which also I higly recommend. Pure fun! Reid didn't want to leave this place...can you blame him? Where was this when we were kids?! (Sorry for the poor quality pictures. It is kind of hard to capture him mid-flight!)



We also hit up, Buca de Beppo, while we were in Denver and yes, it is a MUST as well. The best fettucini alfredo I have ever had - hands down! Denver was an all around great stop for us and can't wait to go back.

The last leg of our trip was a stop in Salina, Kansas. Not your typical vacation destination, but it was a good mid point between Denver and home. We visited the Kenwood Cove Water Park and honestly, it was another great find. Cheap, safe, fun...sign us up!

We are back to the real world now and we hit the ground running when we returned with my new job duties, summer football practice and entertaining our wild man. Vacation 2011 in the books and now the Edgin household is ready for FOOTBALL!
