As well as other things.....
School's out!! Yeah baby! It's been a crazy semester so everyone is pretty happy summer is here and we can chill out a little bit with the schedule. Mama, Zak and Theo now go to school in the mornings, come home after lunch for a siesta and then hang out......Mama had two graduations to get through first though which really wore her out = running around the arena with the black robes on like something out of Harry Potter..... if only she had her wand to cut that 3 hour endurance session done to a cool 30 minutes..... but alack..... not that she should be complain though, cos no sooner had the woman had her birthday, then it was Mother's Day..... so we all trooped off out to breakfast for a change and we men bought Mama some flowers, cos you know, Mama really does rock!
Dada then decided it was time to high tail it to Fruita....... 
with all his biking buddies from Fort Collins leaving us alone to create all sorts of mayhem with Mama.....right on......:) The best part of Dada going to Fruita is the fact that in the mornings we can sneak into Mama's bed and have a calin with her before breakfast while we have our milk. We run her ragged most of the time but we also make her laugh a ton and we get to go and see friends and other cool things.....We miss Dada too but we talk on the phone every day and tell him some stories.....
May was also a sad time because we had to say Goodbye to our very good friends Wayne and Michelle who moved to Kaleeforniay.........But as Mama says, now we can go and visit them there and hang out in wineries and Dada can play some golf. Apparently it is a better climate there too......not sure what we are going to do at the wineries or the golf course but the parents seemed to be excited.....
As we said goodbye we also had a great dinner with les Francais and Mama and Dada are now thinking of creating a French Table group of families in Fort Collins where we all get together to have a meal, French style, which this gives us kids some friends who also speak French. This month we had Kevin and his family over as well as Pierre and his family. So we had 4 french speaking kids to play with and Pierre's boys who are older hung out with us downstairs and played camping in the basement. It was really too cool... So here's hoping the parents get their acts together to make this a more common occurrence....
We also began our summer migrations up the canyon to the river to cool down, cos you know we don't have air conditioning in our house. Mama did ask Dada what he thought about a portable swamp cooler but he said it is only 6 weeks of heat.....which is true...... but our heads get real sweaty in bed, man.......!!!! So to escape, we head to the water......just like..... everybody else in northern Colorado!! Lots of people were fishing and the river is really running this year with all the snow over the winter so we also saw a lot of people kayaking....We hung out in the water and tried to crash somebody's BBQ before Mama and Dada put us back in the car to come home. Here are some pics of our day at the river with our trucks and all. The one of Zak and Dada is one of Mama's favourites!!
And now a special photo for Uncle Bart... that's right....even three year olds can have plumber's crack....
Hope you all are keeping cool to after school cos we sure are and we count the days until Robert and Genevieve arrive to see us!!
Bises tout le monde!! PEACE...
