no boys allowed!

Sara, Angie, Lindsey and I enjoyed a quiet...well, maybe not so quiet, but relaxing and fun weekend sans kids and husbands. We escaped to the mountains to a winery/spa/cabin. There was no tv, no radio, no cell service, no phone in our room, no whining, crying, cooking dinner or wiping butts, just us, a few good bottles of wine, a deck of cards, a lot of laughs and great memories. We had a fantastic weekend and I can't wait to do it again in November!

The apple tree that the bears (yes, you heard right) came down to snack on.

fashion diva in the works

Lucy has started demanding that she pick out her clothes and coordinate outfits.  I don't want her looking like a doofus, but I do want her to have a personality of her own, so I let her have at it...and this is what she came up, not too bad, eh?!

camping in the rockies

These pictures are from a few different camping trips we took in the Rockies.  We really enjoyed the getaways and ever since then the girls have been pretending to camp, run from bears and roast marshmallows instead of playing babies, too funny.

Denver Zoo

 Sara, Angie and I got all the kids together at the zoo today to check it out.  It was one of the nicer zoos that I've been to and the kids loved it because they had some unusual animals and a train ride.

Lu Lu and Wyatt, her first crush.  She was showing off for him all day!

beauty shop fun

Today was Edy's first of many to come visits to the beauty shop.  She thought it was so fun.  There were suckers involved, stickers and she got to watch a movie of choice while she was being pampered.  As you can see, her hair was...well...a mess!  So we just shaped it up a little.

Estes Park

We took a Sunday drive today and wound up in Estes Park.  It reminded me a lot of Gatlinburg, TN with all the touristy shops, fudge factories and wood carvings.  They were having a weekend festival so we walked around long enough to grab an ice cream cone and head home for dinner.

hit the road jack...

surprise!  or not really surprise, but we're moving to colorado...see you there.
