Climbing Mountains With Grandma

Grandma Pam flew into Denver on the 28th (Thursday) and is spending the week with us! We've already had quite the adventures! On Saturday we took the Cog Rail up Pikes Peak, and Sunday we headed to the Zoo in Pueblo!

The cog rail up pikes peak was an 80 ride up the mountain, complete with a tour guide! It was a lot of fun, but I wouldn't recommend it while holding a squirming toddler! That makes the ride a little bit long. (However? It was absolutely gorgeous!)

And today (Sunday) we headed to the zoo. Although it was a bit colder out today, we still had fun! We even got up close with a lion! (Through the glass.)

And just trying out my new software to see if the following link works!

Saturdays were made so we can be lazy!!

Skyler and I are spending today just hanging around the house! (What better way to spend a Saturday?) We already got in some good quality play time this morning!

While I was putting away the laundry, I came back into the living room to find this:

Doesn't get much cuter than that! Does it?

We also have a small bit of "exciting" news here at the house. We finally had our back door replaced! It's so nice to be able to use the back door again! (Not to mention more secure!)

In Ryan's news, he just left Lincoln. He was able to spend Friday night and this morning with his parents. But now he's headed for Oklahoma with a load of meat from Storm Lake, Iowa.

I hope this weekend finds you all having a great, relaxing weekend!

A Walk In The Park

Today Skyler and I decided to go for a drive! We went up to Manitou Springs and visited Joe at Subway. Then we drove up to Cripple Creek, so that I could snap some pictures. On our way back, we stopped at the park in Manitou for 45 minutes to let Skyler burn off some energy!

A New (Web) Adventure!

Since I found out I was pregnant, I've been using www.aboutmybaby.com to share news and photos of Skyler! However, recently I got an email that aboutmybaby.com is going out of business, so I needed to find a new outlet to share my photos and stories!

I'm hoping that this blog/website works well to share with you all the adventures that Skyler takes us on!

I'll kick it off with this adorable shot of Skyler at the library last week!

We go to story time every Friday morning at the Library, and afterward Skyler loves to go walk through the "Big Girl" section of the library and pick out a book of her own for the week. This shot is her, at the little table looking over her selection!

I also want to share (quickly) that I uploaded Christmas Photos! (Finally!!) HERE is the link to the Christmas Photos on my photo website.
