This picture makes my heart skip a beat! Okay I know that might be a little dramatic however it is true. I will also have to admit here that this picture was not taken this morning it was taken on Sunday morning… so I guess I am a big cheater for day four, forgive me?!?! My hubby snuggled in with…
For four years now our family has lived in Colorado. We spent one of those Thanksgiving back in San Diego so for other years we have spent Thanksgiving here. The first year we had Thanksgiving we did it big with friends and family. Then the next year we did just our family. Last year I was not in the mood…
I have been a little behind on my photo editing so I have not been doing posts lately. Well I cleaned off my hard drive on my computer and now I have more room on my computer to upload and edit my pictures… so sit back and take it all in! A few weeks back the boys and I did…
Being that it is Thanksgiving vacation we headed to the zoo yesterday. We met some friends there and enjoyed the fall day with the wild animals… our five and then what the zoo provides as well! My friend and I kept laughing the entire time we were there, the kids were excited about the geese, the squirrels and the Christmas…

Fall days are all about… Enjoying the last little bit of warmth there is until next spring Sitting under the shade trees as leaves flutter to the ground Afternoon picnics on a stretched out quilt Eating apples right off of the tree Swinging on the swings and getting red cheeks from the chilly wind Cooking a pot of soup for…
One thing that I love about fall are all the festivities that come along with the season. Last week the boys and I went to our local high school’s homecoming parade. The boys loved it! Then this weekend we headed to the mountains to take in some of the fall colors. The very first year we had moved out here…
Two times a year I take a drive to Buena Vista to visit Michael’s mom with the boys. I was worried with Zeke being in school if we would be able to make it out this fall. Well a little last minute plans changed and we headed out there this weekend to spend a day. The weather could not have…
