A Weekend for Two!


Edward and I took a trip to Denver, CO to have some time for the two of us before the baby comes. Here is a picture from the Aquarium. Notice the tiger (yes, a tiger at the aquarium) in the background? We became good friends with them as you will see. Besides me having strep throat and a cold on top of that, we had a great time. We realized that we hadn't been alone together for 4 days since our honeymoon almost 3 years ago. Anyways, we were very lucky that Grandma Susan and Edward's Auntie Katie came and stayed with Gabriel. He wore them out, but it sounds like they had a great time. Enjoy the pics!

I think Edward won the staring contest.

We went to the Coors Factory. After the really cool tour, Edward enjoyed his free beer......

I splurged and enjoyed a Dr. Pepper!


A night out!

The Snow!!!


Last year we started what we wanted to become a tradition, and so this year we continued with our tradition. We packed the car and headed to Flagstaff with the kids for a day of snow! This year we went with our friends Daniel, Holly, and their daughter Addisen and our other friends Bill and Terri and their daughters Emily and McKenna. We had a great time. None of us slept great at the hotel, so we were all pretty tired the next day, but we did it. We got up, stopped for breakfast at "The Place" and spent 2 1/2 hours in the snow.



Gabriel and Addisen enjoyed going down the hill on the sled over and over again.



Emily enjoyed going down the hill with her mom!


Holly taught Addisen to throw snowballs at her dad, but Daniel turned it back around on Holly. It was pretty cute how quickly Addisen caught on to the fun. She, of course, quickly got Gabriel involved!

McKenna made a snowangel with her dad!


Here is some video of all the fun!
