It's been a while! My kids (yes, both kids! Ah!) are back in school and I'm attempting to get back at blogging! My computer has been gone being fixed most of the summer, and I haven't even touched my camera, *but* I have been keeping up on Instagram so I thought I'd share some of my faves from this summer.

opening night at my end of the year show for school! i only took one class last year and i worked on a self portrait project called "portraits of motherhood" which pretty much sums up the emotions i've felt over the past year: exhaustion and introspection. i was glad to be chosen for the show and to catch up with my artist friends.
the angels seriously sing for me when the weather warms up and i can get these rambunctious little boys out of the house and to the park every evening!
colorado summer skies are my absolute favorite. i can't even; they are so special to me.

sillouette shots at the park are also my favorite.
weekend trip to breckenridge, a ritzy little ski town.
we spent a good amount of time down at the river this summer. there is nothing more magical that sparkly summer water, especially nestled within the mountains.
lots of splash park nights this summer, and it was so sweet to see asher finally get the courage to play in the water! <3
neighborhood bike rides, more park nights... ok we basically *live* at the park.

my sisters came to visit this summer! our trip was perfect. these girls are such a big part of my heart and we had an amazing time being our ridiculous selves as usual!
we took a little day trip into Cheyenne with my sisters, such a sleepy old town. we went on a carriage ride, had lunch and adventured around.
with my sisters we also hiked to the top of a waterfall and oh my goodness came across this dreamy pool at the top.
we ended up taking an impromptu family trip to ohio. these pictures were taken in nebraska/eastern colorado. always nice to see the fam!
the boys and i on our way to a friend's house for a cookout.
we loved having wednesday night cookouts at adrienne's!

we had lunch at a janky little restaurant in ault. there were flies everywhere and sticky syrup dripping on the walls as expected but dang this mural wall - worth it. 
this picture was taken the night that the boys and i went back to school shoe shopping at Kohls/Famous Footwear and had dinner at iHop. i'm actually tearing up just looking at this picture. i can honestly say that this night was just perfect.

I would love to see more from your portraits of motherhood collection! I know they are amazing!! Those skies are gorgeous. I miss Colorado! We passed through Breckenridge once and stopped for lunch. We’ve wanted to go back since. It seemed like such a cute little town! I adore all of these photos. So dreamy! Looks like an amazing summer sweet lady!
