While Eric went to Philly to finish up some work at Temple, the kids and I spent some time in the Denver area visiting Eric's brother Adam and some old friends. Unfortunately, I didn't take pictures with everyone, but here are some pictures with Shauna's family. Shauna was kind enough to let us crash at her house for three days and it was a blast the whole time. Her little boy, Jaden is 3 months younger than Logan, and her little girl, Bradli, is 1 month younger than Paige. Such cute kids! Thanks Shauna and Doug for great food, great accommodations, and great company!
After coming home to an empty house in Grand Junction, and realizing that Eric was going to be hunting through Labor Day weekend, I was feeling the need to get away again. My super generous brother-in-law Chris came to my rescue by flying me (and my kids) home to San Diego with his frequent flier miles. I was able to visit with my high school friends, Elizabeth and Krissi, who both had babies this spring too. It was so great to see them and their cute babies!
We also spent the majority of our time at the beach, soaking in the last days of summer. The water was warm, the weather was beautiful, and I was in heaven! Mason became quite the boogie boarder this trip, and even got brave enough to wade out up to his waist and dive under waves with his cousin Morgan!
Erika came out from Virginia too because it was my mom's birthday on the 28th. It was the first time my whole family had been together for any birthday since I was in high school!
My Dad took the kids out on his boat for a fishing/dolphin/sea lion watching adventure. We saw sea lions, but no dolphins or fish. The kids had a blast riding in the boat, though, so it was well worth taking the boat out!
The kids wanted to "swim with the sharks" so we all jumped overboard. Isn't that water beautiful?
Paige was not quite the happy girl she usually is because she was cutting her first 2 teeth during these trips, but here's a smile nonetheless. Guess she loves the beach as much as her mom!
The whole crew on our last beach day. We finished up the day with some greasy mexican food and ice cream. A perfect day in my book! We had a great time and miss you all! Thanks Chris and Kirsten for making it happen!
Now we are back in CO and Eric just left for his first day of work - yippee! Mason starts school Wednesday and Logan starts school next week. We've had a blast the last 2 weeks, but now we are ready to get into a routine and settle into life here. Good-bye summer - we'll miss you!

I wish we could have been in Denver while you were there. We are planning to go in a couple weeks. It looks like you had a fun summer! We miss you.
Wow, the Borgquist clan is growing in numbers! Wish we could have seen you guys. Good luck to Eric.
Looks like you had a fun trip! You look so good by the way...did you even have a baby?
why don't we live by the beach? it's just not right! I loved seeing all of your pictures. Kirsten looks like she is ready! your family is so cute. I can't believe how big your baby already is!
isn't it great to have family in california- what a great place to come home to.
How fun!! I'm so jealous you got to go back to Cali, but it looks like it was a really fun trip. I miss the ocean so much!
Thanks for the shout out and you know you are welcome back ANY time. I'll even make sure I'm stocked with macaroni salad!!!!! I love the pics of you at the beach. That pic of Mason with his boogie board- too cute! I'm so glad you were able to go home. I bet your family loved seeing you and the kiddos!
Great pictures. Your family is so beautiful. I love the one with "the girls" in their little hats. Sounds so fun!What a great way to end the summer.
