8th Grade Continuation







"There are the families we are born into,
and there are the families
that we choose our circle of friends."


I spent a gloomy May day with my Sena family.
John's 8th grade continuation.
A 4 mile Sena hike.
Lunch at 3 Margaritas with Cindy.
And a movie - "Life as We Know It."


Thank you, Sena family, for a wonderful day!
Love you! ♥

Happy Birthday, Andrew!

It's difficult to comprehend that our little baby boy is two. Two(!!!!). Now it is as if he is officially a toddler. While it feels like the past two years have flown by at break-neck speed, it is difficult to remember what life was like before he blessed our lives. At two, he is all boy! Running. Throwing. Hitting. Yelling. Yet, he is also snuggles and giggles and pure sweetness. We adore you, dear Andrew James. You complete our family! ♥

U2!

Sena and I scored when Dad and Kiki had two extra tickets to the U2 concert at Invesco. I must admit that I'm not really a U2 fan, but I don't dislike them either. Sort of indifferent. Before the concert, I had to rack my brain to try to think of a U2 song... I did come up with one - "Beautiful Day." That being said. This was truly one of the most memorable nights of my life. The stage and audience were enormous. The energy was palpable. And Bono is quite possibly the most engaging performer. Evah. Even on the 5th level, he had me completely captivated. And I realized I did know quite a few U2 songs. It was an unforgettable night and I was able to experience it with three of my favorite people in the world. And consider me an official U2 fan now! ♥

Mother's Day

If I had a single flower for every time I think about you, I could walk forever in my garden.
-Claudia Ghandi

After breakfast in bed complete with Daylight donuts (cake with white frosting and sprinkles - delish!) and chocolate milk, we packed up for a day at the Denver Botanic Gardens. While the gardens are not quite in full bloom this time of year, the bulbs are out in all their beautiful glory. Especially my favorite, the tulips. We devoured a tasty picnic lunch and explored the gardens with Dad, Kiki and Honey. The kids especially loved racing around the grassy hill area. It was truly a perfect day! To complete the day, Jas took us to Sweet Tomatoes. My fave and quite possibly his least favorite.
Thank you, my love! ♥
