I know I am catching up on a lot of blogging all in one post but it has been such a great couple of months so I wanted to include it all. I have posted an abundant amount of pictures that include my flowers in the front yard but I am just so so so happy that it is finally spring! But first off, I have to post pictures of sledding as a family before I leave winter behind for the year. We put our snowshoes on and headed over to the open space by our house for some sledding. Very fun, but again yay for spring.
Mason had his Kindergarten program a few weeks ago. He was a very cute bumblebee.
Brad and Sara came for a visit and since the only picture I got while they were here was Brad blowing out the candle on his birthday brownie, you will just have to trust me that we had fun. I could do nothing for days and have the best time if I could be with these guys.
We always look forward to fall break and spring break because it means that Grandma and Grandpa Crowther come to visit. They had to cut their trip short to head back home to be with my Grandma who was not doing well, but we packed in as much as we could in two days. First on the list is always a trip to McDonald's play place. I don't know many adults who love McDonald's but my dad does.....it's no wonder why my kids love him so much. We also squeezed in a trip to the park and a round of tennis with the kids.....both absolute necessities when they come to visit. We went to the Nature and Science museum for a day of lizards, snakes, dinos, mummies and much more.
One of my favorite parts of the visit was my dad helping us plant some flowers in the front yard. We look forward to planting this planter in the front yard and letting the kids pick which flowers they want. I love that my dad was here to use his green thumb in my yard.....it really could use some of his talent more often......the flowers make me smile everyday! Thank you for coming to visit. We are already counting down the days to our summer in Idaho.
Mia had her first Lacrosse game this last weekend. Isn't she SO CUTE in her uniform. Mia has some friends that are into lacrosse so she decided to give it a try. I had never seen a game and had no idea what it would be like. IT WAS SO MUCH FUN TO WATCH. So much action going on. I loved it. Mia has improved a lot since they started practicing last month. The other team scored the winning goal in the last ten seconds of the game making the score 9 to 8; so it was close. Mia had so much fun. I can't wait to see all her games. I was so into the game that I forgot to get pictures of her playing, but this is right after the game. We celebrated by going out for lunch at Red Robin.
My sister Becky and her family were here for 9 days visiting us and her husbands brother who also lives here in Denver. It was so nice having them around. I finally got to snuggle my cute 5 month old niece Imogene. Becky and Glenden are great to have around. They are so easy to please. They explored the city and the surrounding areas most of the days. We all went swimming to a really fun rec center one day. We also spent one afternoon in the mountains zip lining. We then stopped at the red rock amphitheater to look around. I can't believe how long we've lived in Denver and never seen it. Very cool. I think we wore out Brant because one day he fell asleep standing up leaning on the love sac.
We colored eggs with the kids and had a short Easter egg hunt Sunday morning. Brant and Mason don't have shirts on and Gordon doesn't have any pants on but who needs clothes when there is candy to be found. We loved having so much family around the last couple of weeks. We feel so blessed to have such wonderful people in our lives. Thanks for coming. We hope you come back soon.
Easter morning pictures before church.
Just in case you were wondering......it's spring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, and just in case there weren't enough pictures in this post, here is Brant's latest thing. I kept finding my Ugg's in weird places around the house and then I saw Brant in them and thought it was cute. But then today he finished the outfit and I realized what he's been pretending. He is really into pirates the last few days. He is either captain hook or red beard depending on whether or not he has the hook and eye patch. So funny.
