Denver Firefighters Museum

We had a great time at the firefighters' museum. Rich in history but very interactive and approachable for little kids.

Snow Fun!

These pics are from the second snow storm we had. Nate's slippery snow pants were great for having fun clearing the snow off the slides.

Halloween!

Nate decided he wanted to be a monster this year for Halloween. We just pulled together some things we had around the house for his costume.

Showing off his police sticker he received at the Munchkin Masquerade in Boulder (trick or treating at the businesses on Pearl Street)

He loves climbing on all of the boulders he finds at playgrounds

He was so incredibly excited trick or treating this year. He ran from house to house laughing and dancing, he was so happy.

Chautauqua Park

We found a great place in Boulder called Chautauqua Park. They have kid friendly activities and lots of hiking. Nate and I went to a nature story time about Owls and Bats a couple of weeks ago before we went for a walk in the snow.

First Snow in our new home

Happy Birthday, Kelly

27 weeks along now! Baby is about 2 lbs.

First days near our new home!

We are all moved in and loving the area. It was quite a project moving but we've been able to get out to enjoy the Fall. Loving the Farmers' Market, Pumpkin Patches, and other seasonal activities.

 Wonderful pumpkin patch near Louisville, CO

 He found some "popcorn" in the corn maze

First days in Colorado

Nate and I made it to Colorado (we stayed at Gene and Barb's) and enjoyed some quiet time and lots of snow for so early in the season. Gene, Barb, and Dave arrived a few days later with the moving trucks.

 Licking the snow off my car

 hmm, not enough to properly sled

 pretend "blueberry pie"

 6am pumpkin carving

 Nate didn't want anything to do with scooping out the seeds (too slimy) but he loved using the tools

 We carved out a happy face pattern

 Beach toys are great for snow too!

 Cooking for Gene, Barb, and Dave's arrival

The snow is melting...so sad!!!!
