The Zoo – Spring Break
It was a real treat to make it back to the CM Zoo during our break. We hadn’t been in a year or so, and certainly had not seen the awesome new Colorado Wildlife Exhibit. It was amazing!!! I love our zoo. It was a wonderful day with precious friends.

Bowling – Spring Break
I really enjoyed my time with the kids during this break. I am really hoping that our summer will be just as fun. After a day at the zoo we went bowling with other friends. Wii Bowling really does seem to help! hehe! I love to watch Gillian bowl…she goes up there, throws her ball, spins around and runs back to us. She does not even [...]
Spring Snow Bunnies
When you live in Colorado you expect to play in the snow during the Winter. However, if Spring tries to edge Winter out naturally we Coloradan’s tend to get a bit testy. It was looking like Spring was winning the battle, all through March. However, good ole Winter saved one or two tricks for April and we all got our “snow” [...]
A Look Back at Hayden
This week, I have been trying to catch up on all of the things I have wanted to blog about – (jot down so I will remember). While doing that I ran into some pictures that just brought me tears of joy. I had to bring them out and share them. These little people sure can make you realize that our Creator is amazing.

Lost Without My Camera
It has been about two weeks since I destroyed yet another camera, yes this IS number three! Ugh….the ONE time I do not use my wrist strap I drop it with the lens out!!! I really wanted to drop to the floor in the fit of a tantrum when it happened…BUT, I didn’t. The worst part is that Hayden (aka Camera buff extraordinaire) [...]
Time of Reflection
I have so many random thoughts today, so much on my mind but not certain what it all amounts to. I love having my blog and I love that so many of my friends now have one, what a great way to stay connected and to record the things on our hearts and in our lives. To jot my thoughts down is therapeutic and I have really missed it. I think so [...]
Precious Prayer
Last night as the kids were getting tucked into bed…late, after a fun night with friends. Gillian asked, “So what are we doing tomorrow?” Both Kip and I said, “No plans, we are just going to relax and enjoy a day together.”
So in Gillian’s prayer last night she said, “Dear God, thank you for this [...]
Southern Belle’s
I love to listen to Gillian and her girlfriends play dress-up. They are so precious while they are try to act like grown-ups. The best part is the cute little accents they pick up. On this unseasonably warm day, Gillian and her friend N were taking a stroll around their castle (our yard) looking for their cat. I just had to take a few pic [...]
Lego Achievement
I do not think I have met anyone who doesn’t love Lego’s. They were one of my favorites when I was a kid so it makes me happy to see that Hayden also loves them. For years now, we have collected many large sets from the City Collection and their Car Collections. Typically Hayden and Kip will sit and work on them together. Howe [...]
Stars & Stripes
A vignette on the life of sweet Gillian. I cannot believe how much my baby girl has changed this year, she is just as precious as can be. She just recently danced in the production of Stars & Stripes and did such a lovely job (as did all of her girlfriends). I am so thankful that she seems to really enjoy dancing and as of now wants to [...]
