Mother's Day 2013


 Brunch at Colorado National Golf Club w/ my favorite people in the world


 Mother's Day at Jace's Pre-K.....
This was such a special day for me and Jace.  He had prepared so many awesome gifts for me including handmade popsicle stick flowers, a picture frame with sequins, and chocolate covered strawberries.  Yes, he actually dipped them with his teacher before we got there.  But the best surprise was the picture he drew for me of a pool with a caption that read, "What do you like to do with Mom?"  Jace responded with, "We go to swim in the pool a lot at the hotel."  Haha! You know, we are at hotel pools quite often. ;-)

It was so incredibly sweet to see how excited he was to show me my surprises.  And he even wrote out facts about me....well, partially facts like my favorite color being green.  Read the rest in the picture below.  Funny stuff!  I love you Jace man!


Girls' trip to Texas for Cathy's "Almost 40th" Birthday! ;-)

Had an awesome visit with my Texas girls for my best friend, Cathy's birthday.  She turned 39.  She won't like me telling you that, but I mean, damn, does she look like she's about to be 40?? We are counting down the months until her 40th because we've got some fun birthday plans in the mix.

 I miss these sweet girls.....irreplaceable friendships!!

Colorado National Golf Club

 We recently joined a golf club.....because those of you that know me, know that I play golf all the time.  LOL!!  Jimmy sure is loving it and has been bringing the kids up once a week for some lessons.  It's neat to see how they are progressing but more importantly, I love that this is their special bonding time with Daddy.  I enjoy going up there to watch them practice, and then we love to sit out on the patio to have dinner w/ an incredible view of those Rocky Mountains.


 the best coach in the world!

Gammy comes for a visit! And some family pics

 Gammy came for a visit, and unfortunately, it snowed HEAVILY pretty much the entire trip.  Towards the end of her trip, we had a chance to get out a little bit and do some shopping (of course) and watch Kendall's cheer show.  We always love having you come out and visit Gammy!!

Tubing in Winter Park

 Yes, this was in March.  Keep in mind our last snowstorm was the end of April, so what better way to make the best of getting so much snow (when you don't like snow) than to go tubing.  We had an absolute blast!  There were 3 courses- beginner to hardest and I must say the beginner hill was super fast.  Hence, why we are wearing helmets.  We'll definitely be back next year!

Butterfly Pavillion

The kids loved the Butterfly Pavillion.  It's an insect zoo.  They held Rosie, the Tarantula and saw over 1600 butterflies in the Butterfly greenhouse area.  They had so much fun!
