Colorado Trip


Our trip to Colorado was a lot of fun. We did a lot of things, but we always wish we could have seen more people and spent more time...I guess that means that we need to get out there more often. Here are some of our highlights!




We went for a walk around my sisters neighborhood and it was soooooo windy that day. The pond in the background has little whitecaps it was blowing so hard. We still made the kids stop for a picture. (we are so mean). They live in such a great area with pathways the you can take throughout and it is up against all this open land. It is very pretty there.





The kids loved playing with their bunnies, and giving them carrots!



Crew is my brownie lover! He just can't get enough of them,and asks for them all the time. My sister Summer knew this, and so she made them just for him. She even sneaked him down so he could help frost them. This was surly a highlight for him.. (thanks Aunt Summer)




Hunting for lady bugs! There were TONS of them. The kids has so much fun letting them walk all over them, and counting their spots.



Watching our babies play together! They are exactly two months apart!






We took them to Hammonds candy factory to get a tour. It was fun, but I think a little disappointing for some..like Crew. On the way to the factory, he kept asking me if we were going to be able to leave.... or if there was gum that made us into blueberries. He was of course imagining Charlie and the Chocolate factory, so when it turned out to be just a plain old candy factory, it was not as exciting.








We all went to this cowboy restaurant that was really fun. I am not sure what the name was, but their was a huge slide for the kids to go down, great food, balloon characters, and DANCING!!!! Check out our boogy!







Look at fun my sister is with those boys! They had so much fun with her! I am glad they had time to spend with her and their cousins to get to know them better.




Kids Paradise! That is what I like to call the basement of my sisters house. As you can see it has swings, playground, bike riding, jungle gym, TV, video games, basketball hoop...and a mess free zone. I really didn't see my kids for most of the trip!




Celebrating our cousins Jordans birthday!



Playing with Grandma and Grandpa. My mom was able to take each one of my kids one on one and spend time with them. It was truly one of their highlights, and I am so glad that they are able to create memories with her because they don't get to see her that often. And they love to wrestle Grandpa!




What a horrible place the skating rink is. I had to turn this one over to Scott. They had never been before, and had to be held up the whole time....plus it was WAY crowded, and well, the moms and babies skipped out, while the Dads took over....AHHHH.




My Brother Trent got the Melchizedek priesthood while we were there. Everyone came to support him, and congratulate him on working so hard to accomplish this goal of his. We are all very proud of him.




I also had a chance to see my two sisters April and Whintey. Both of them were gone for almost the whole week that I was there, but I was glad that I got to see them for a little while.





To close up our trip as we were departing late in the evening we got hit with a crazy snow storm and had to stay the night at a hotel. Of course the kids were loving that.

People always say that Afton and Cade look alike. What do you think?

Baby Chicks

We finally got some more baby chicks to replace our other ones. They kids have of course enjoyed them so much. They are really great pets to have....can't wait until they start laying!

Sick Kids


It breaks my heart to see my kids sick. They just lay there, and look so miserable. I guess the only bennifit of having them be sick, is they will let me hold them as long as I want.
