Christmas in BV

We are going to Buena Vista this year for Christmas with Gretchen, Mike, Makena and Beckett. Cooper and Jill be joining the festivities Christmas Eve. This will be the first Christmas we will be with the whole gang! :) I got all the Christmas decorations down from the attic but am not feeling like doing the work. So, I don't think I will be putting up the Christmas tree, another first.

Halloween 2009

Here are a few pics from Halloween this year in Buena Vista. Makena was a clown and wore the costume by mom, her Great Granma Grace made for Makena's mom when Gretchen was a little girl! Her hair was sprayed red and let me tell you, not easy to wash out! Beckett was a dinosaur and his mohawk was sprayed red with green on the sides to match his costume! We had a great time and ate WAY too much candy...still, lots of fun!

Snow!

I am sitting here enjoying a cup of coffee as it snows this morning. I love snow, primarly Colorado snow. Yes, you can sweep it with a broom. I did not like snow the winter of 2007 when my mom and I got caught in a blizzard with white out conditions in the mountains. That was not fun! But for today, I am inside and warm so I like snow!

Long time, no blog.

Sooooo...guess I will try and start blogging again. I don't know if anyone will read this but I will give it a go! This weekend has been beautiful, 70's sunny. I actually went to a movie last night with two co-workers and had a great time. We went to Julie and Julia, about Julia Child and a woman named Julie who worked her way through Julia Child's cookbook "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" in one year 500 some odd recipes!!! WOW!! Not me..we had BBQ brats and mac and cheese for dinner tonight!! :) Would love to receive a comment if anyone ever reads this!

Makena's, The Very Hungry Caterpillar

Unca Tupa AKA Uncle Cooper

Gretchen, Makena and Beckett came to Denver so Uncle Cooper came down from Ft. Collins to visit. Makena calls him Unca Tupa...it is so cute! :) She is taking so much and Beckett can even say Unca too. We had a great day just hanging out and playing. I have put up some pictures.

Spring Break

We got to spend a few days in Buena Vista with Gretchen, Mike and the grandbabies so I thought I would add a few new pictures...here you go Kammie! :)

We also went to Ft. Collins to see Cooper and Jill but I did not get any new pictures, maybe next time.
