Thanksgiving in Denver

Just some highlights of our super fun Thanksgiving in Denver.

Family picture in front of CrackPots--a cute and fun place to paint your own pottery.

Tyce, Zach and Kacie--the kids had a lot of fun doing this!


Nate with his Build-A-Bear frog. He also got this Rocky hat the the Nuggets game--He only barely stopped wearing it!

Kacie's Build-A-Bear. I am starting to wonder if I made a mistake by putting sound in it. Enough with the Jingle Bell Rock!

Cute cousins coloring to pass some time.

The boys getting ready to go to the Broncos game--a yearly tradition. My boys love it! They're in heaven!


Bingo!


What a great Thanksgiving we had this year! We traveled to Denver to Dan and Brigit's house. They showed us a great time and had a fantastic Thanksgiving feast. Here's some more of the pictures from the trip--

cute cousins!


A game of Red Rover!






Driving down we took Preston and Parker Weber. These are some super cute friends! We had a fabulous time and thanks to Dan and Brigit for a great Thanksgiving!!






Kindergarten Thanksgiving Feast

Nate's kindergarten class had a thanksgiving feast this year. I was lucky to be able to help out in the classroom and took this picture while I was there. I just love how his ears are pushed down by his pilgrim hat. I guess I should have waited until he swallowed to take the picture. :)


Zach is 13!

Wow! My first born is 13 years old! I can hardly believe I am that old! :)

The traditional "how old are you?" picture.

Blowing out all those candles--had to take two breaths to get them all out!

Zach and some friends. He had them over for laser tag, pizza and a movie.


I couldn't be more proud of the great young man Zach is growing up to be. We love you!!



Halloween '09

We had a super fun Halloween this year thanks to grandma's great Halloween party! We played some fun games and ate good food. It was really nice to get together with cousins and enjoy the day.

We got wrapped up like mummies in toilet paper.

We bobbed for apples which the kids loved!

We played muscial chairs.


Grandma's little princess--one of them anyway.



My cool trick-or-treaters! I couldn't believe all the candy they got that night! Thanks to dad who took them into town to hit the townhomes so they could get more bang for their buck!

Strike A Pose

My sweet neighbor has a super nice camera and asked if she could "practice" taking pictures with Kacie. These are a few of what she did. I think she did a pretty good job for a beginner--thanks Amber!

Madison Bobcats

Here are a few photos of Brayden's (#4) football year. His team did great and were first runners-up in his league--which is awesome since there were 26 teams in his league. Great season Brayden! You are a super star!

Listening to his coach--I wish I could get him to listen that well to me! :)
His team was great and it was so fun to see Brayden play. He had a great year with catches for touch downs, interceptions, tackles and fumble recoveries. Keep up the good work, Brayd!

Snow in October!

We woke up to a winter wonderland this morning. The kids were really excited for snow and couldn't wait to get out and play!

Haley with her huge snow ball.
It takes two baby. . .it takes two. . . .me and you!

This one took the whole gang to roll. What great teamwork!


Bella loved the snow, too. She wanted to "help".



My cute little snow angels!


Zach and Bella get the job done!
It was fun, but now I'm ready for it to melt. Zach has a football game tonight--should be fun, or cold at least!!
