Mom's blog update!

I stole this post from my mom's blog since I somehow ended up without my camera! It is our traditional girls bonding weekend. I was so excited to host the girls here in Denver. We had big plans but as usual we ended mainly shopping and swapping old stories and lots of laughs!

So you can check out this complete post with pictures from her blog.

Bonding Weekend
When Melissa got married, I told her she had to train her husband up right, she had to spend one weekend out of the year with her mother. So the beginnings of our Mother Daughter weekend, our weekends have taken us to : Las Cruces, Tuscon, Alburquerque, Dallas, Seattle. This year we were in Colorado for our weekend, and had a blast.Pat, Melissa and Pat's sister and her 2 daughters have gone ever since; except the time that we were out of the country. Something we all look forward to.
Hot air balloon rides largely depend on wind and weather conditions so we found out after an 1 1/2 hour wait. The ideal wether condition never happened so Pat and her sister, Ana, were unable to ride on the hot air balloon as planned.
As the young girls went to exercise, Pat and her sister walked around in the river pool. Believe it our not it was a work out.
As always we did a lot of shopping. Here you have our three models:Rebecca, Melissa, and Leah.

Happy Birthday to me!

I celebrated my 33rd birthday with a suprise celebration at our weekly playgroup. I have no pictures because I thought it was a regular palydate with Avery and Lauren but when I got to the park-my friend Stephanie had decorated a table at one of the park gazebos with crepe paper and set for a picnic. She provided snacks and cupcakes! Thank you Stephanie for the lovely suprise-I treasure our friendship! A few nights later I celebrated again with a trip to the Rio for some fun and margaritas with friends. Here are Crystal, Stacie and Michelle-we missed you Heidi! That makes for a lot of birthday fun in May!

Finally!

My cousin Amy lived in Colorado Springs for nearly 2 years and it wasn't until the day before she moved back to Texas that we finally went to visit her! I was so excited that we finally got together. The kids had never met before and Amy and I hadn't seen each other since....well-it had been almost 11 years! The kids had so much fun that day-and to top it off since they were moving they played outside the entire time! I now just wish we had done it sooner. Can't you see all the fun in their faces!

Summer trip to South Dakota

Here are some shots from our trip to South Dakota last week. We had a great time and I was very impressed with the different stuff that we saw. We went to see Mt. Rushmore, Bear Country, Crazy Horse Memorial and just enjoy being with the kids and hanging out together. Hope you enjoy the photos.

Baby Lucas

Our very dear friends Meghan and Lance were in town for her graduation from Pharmacy school at CU. the kids and I were able to steal a few minutes to check out there little guy! Last time we saw him was at the hospital. The kids were excited to see the baby and she even let them hold him too. Thanks Meghan and Congrats too!
