Summer Moments

 I always have to document "Skittle Day" at swim practice. They earn a skittle for each 25 M they swim! This year Brielle swam 1000 meters and Beckham swam 850 meters! Beckham made a huge jump from last year. This is his first year swimming with the older group for 45 min instead of 30. So he DOUBLED his distance this year! Brielle stayed consistent with her distance last year. I was so proud of both of them! It takes so much endurance to swim that long. Of course they enjoyed their skittles after practice :)

I had been wanting to try the new pizza place downtown. I love going on lunch dates with my kids. I loved the pizza! I think they still prefer Pier 49.

One Cheese Pizza + One Goat Cheese and Asparagus Pizza. Can you guess which one was the kids?

One recent change in our downtown is all the murals going up. They have different artists each month add color and beauty to the outside building walls. I absolutely love the character it adds to our city and we are surrounded by amazing artists.

The kids had been dying to try Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory. Brielle got a caramel apple (with Oreos of course) and buddy got ice cream. I think I got something called a bear claw. It was chocolate and caramel and macadamia nuts and pure decadence. 

We have also taken to eating most of our meals outside on our new deck. It doesn't get much better than summertime living in the backyard!
