Durango and Easter

We had a great weekend in Durango and Ouray with Benjamin and Lynn. What a beautiful part of our state! Those ice climbers are brave.
Travis got some great shots in our backyard of Mr.C, here are two of my favorites.

On a recent trip downtown

These pictures were taken in the industrial area of Santa Fe and 9th ave.

There are so many unique graffiti work and some of the work is really well done.

Class Portrait

Here is Connor's 1st ever "class" picture. Travis said, "don't you think he's the cutest of the bunch?" I responded that I'm sure every parent says the same thing :) His teacher is so great, I really and truly don't understand how she gets 6 toddlers to go to sleep at the same time. She has the patience of a saint!!

Chinese New Year 2010 Year of the Tiger

On of the rec centers in Highlands Ranch was hosting a Chinese New Year celebration, so we decided to try something different and see what it was all about. Connor really enjoyed the show as we were treated with a dragon dance, martial arts, and other variety of dances.

Cheee!

Travis was taking some pictures of baby Jade and Connor was feeling left out. Here he is putting his head on the background with his innocent "cheese" smile :)

Love You.MOD

1st Christmas In Our New Home

Helping Uncle Chris open my present, thanks Chris!

Early Christmas with Uncle Corey and Kaylin, they're getting ready for their big road trip to Ohio.

Mommy has been wanting to make finger paint for me. Since it was so nice outside today, she set me up with paper and finger paint at my table. It was going OK until I decided to finger paint my face/head, what a mess! I think that may be the last finger painting session for a while!

I love taking all the ornaments from the bottom of the tree and saying, "Igotit!".....one word.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone!

Lots of Changes

Our new home! We have been very busy with the closing on our new home and then moving in. We have a lot of organizing to do.

Our Big Adventure

Rock Heaven

Wow, what a view!

Hmmm, not sure if I like standing in here.

Pike's Market

We just returned from an amazing trip to Seattle and the San Juan Islands. There is such unbelievable beauty up there and I'm so thankful that we were able to soak it all in. Traveling and camping with a 1 yr old was challenging at times, but Connor did great and we survived. I would highly recommend these islands to everyone!

Connor's First Camping Trip

We had a great weekend up near Leadville, CO. Connor did great on his first camping trip, which we were happy about because there are many more to come!
Mommy did a challenging triathlon, the highest one in the US! Her lungs hurt a little, but she was able to finish and meet her goal. Go mommy!

PARTY ON!

Connor turned one last week and we enjoyed celebrating this weekend with some family and friends.

Thank you for making such a yummy cake mom! I loved playing with it, but didn't eat too much.

Connor got many great gifts from miles away including this fun homemade blanket from NY grandma. Thanks to everyone who helped us through the first year and who made Connor's birthday so much fun!


We didn't get to posting pictures from this great hike we went on last week, notice how GREEN it is :)

Littleton Museum

Last weekend Kerri, Connor, Grandpa and Grandma met at the Littleton Museum. We had a wonderful time looking at the different animals and learning a little about the history of the place.

Hold on tight

Class in session
