A few pictures

The kids and I went to a pretty park this morning near Centennial Airport to watch the planes and take some pictures. I'm disappointed that some didn't focus well but overall I thought they came out cute. Chase loved the planes...it was a great morning!

New Backpacks

Thanks for the Gymbucks Grammy! We went to Gymboree yesterday and got new backpacks and lunch boxes (Chase is also wearing his new bike helmet).

Not a fabulous picture but this is from Red Rocks on Sunday. It was tons of fun!

Happy Kids!

Update on the new room!

We've continued our progress on the new room. I'm really excited about doing this because each project has been done by Kaitlyn and me together. We've had lots of fun! She's helped strip wallpaper, pick out bedding and today she helped me create artwork. It may look simple but don't be fooled. We spent over an hour at Archivers this morning picking out paper and then using a die cut to cut out hundreds of circles to create buttons for this butterfly picture. We then worked together to punch button holes in each one, paint the canvas and glue them to the canvas. We also sorted through real buttons to find just the pink and green ones (with help from Chase which made it a bigger challenge) and then we used glue dots to attach the buttons. We still need to hang it and then make the headboard and window covering and then we'll be pretty much done! It has been a great project that I've really enjoyed. I know I'll always remember it.
