Summer 2009 - Part Deux

Summer Camping - Lathrop State Park
















My Camping Girls -- All 4 of them















Hello! I hope this message finds you well, and that your summer is going as well as ours! Phew, has it been busy or what?

First things first, I've had several members of my family get married this summer, but unfortunately we have not been able to attend. But I wanted to give them a shout out and a BIG 'OL congrats! Hope that life is going well for you and your new adventures!

Here in Colorado, we have been very, very busy living life and exploring our great state. We spent our Xmas money on Elitch Garden passes, and have been having fun at the water park and riding the roller coasters. Life is good :-)


We've squeezed in a few camping trips so far, and are hoping for another 2 or so before the season is over. The kids are having a blast fishing...but still have coaxed one onto their own lines yet. I still have hope for them yet! As you can see, Gwen loves being in the outdoors, and can barely sit still :-)





We finally got the hitch hooked up for the Durango -- now we can use the Hemi to pull the Bullet!










Jade's getting busy with soccer. She has 3 tournaments this summer on her new team, and then will hit the regular season hard in the fall. Kaleb will start Roller Hockey this fall too!



I could ramble on all day, but personally I think photos are better....so here you go!

Summer 2009

Hello My Friends!

Okay, first things first. I guess it has been a while since I've posted any pics up here in cyberspace. For those of you who have been checking regularly to see the updates, I'm sorry. I guess our busy life got in the way. Truth is I've become a Facebook junkie, so if you're not already a friend of mine on that website, well, sign up and you can stalk the Zimmer Fam thru that website.

So here's a quick synopsis of our past year:
Fall '08 - Not much to say. Jade entered 4th grade. Kaleb entered 1st grade. Kim really enjoyed her time alone with Mom. The weather was decent and the weekends were filled with soccer.

Winter '08 - We were pretty busy in December. Didn't really get to go skiing until January. I busted my neck playing hockey, which ended my skiing season, and as I would later find out, my hockey career (bummer). But Kathy, Jade, and Kaleb got some good skiing time in. We also snuck up to Breck a few days to get in some swimming!



















Spring '09 - We kicked it off with Kimmee's 2nd b-day (Apr 7th), the Kat's 25th b-day (Apr 14th), the K-man's 7th b-day (May 1st). Jade will be turning 10 at the end of this month (Jun 29th) and I'll be hitting #35 in July. We've got a lot of camping and fishing trips planned, so stay tuned with pictorial updates from our adventures!








Kim had a blast at her b-day party!






















Life is still good here in D-town. So far we are surviving this recession...still looking for the economy to pick up. Jade just tried out (and made) the varsity girl's soccer team for U-11. She'll be on a traveling squad for the fall, playing mostly in-state teams. We're pretty proud of her and she's very, very excited. Kaleb starts roller hockey in the fall. Kim, she's just busy being C-R-A-Z-Y! We have no major trips planned in the horizon, although we may be trekking back to Nebraska soon to pick up some stuff from my parent's house. We're also considering a trip to K.C., but not sure yet. Other than that, we're just trying to keep our head above water!

The Zimmer Fam - Summer '09








Kim was there, she just didn't want to be in the picture!





Can you blame her?













Kaleb got a new pair of Heeley's from Par-Mar for his b-day. He's a skating fool now!









Jade had to build a castle for a school project this spring. She decided to make it edible! We used rice crispy treats, ice cream cones, licorice, and frosting!




Kaleb had to get a few more teeth pulled. This is his "Novacaine" smile :-)










Jade is turning 10 in June. She's a beautiful little girl!











Mama's boy!




























Kaleb earned his Tiger badge in Cubscouts and graduated to Wolf.












Par-Mar's visit in May.













Kaleb is very, very proud of his summer haircut!
