A Warm Winter Day

Animals at the Denver Zoo

 Today was free day at the Denver Zoo. We got there right when it opened and had a blast. The animals were very active today! Nate asked lots of great questions and even told someone that he'd like to be a scientist when he grows up. The zoo volunteer asked if he wanted to work at the zoo and he said, "No, I just want to be a normal scientist!" haha! We also saw an elephant that weighed in at 12,000lbs.

End of January

 A visit from the Gaukels

learning to pick up and throw rocks

 Hiking on Gene's Birthday

 This pretty much sums up our hiking excursions with Nate lately. Somehow, he has lots of energy at home but he's too exhausted to hike!

 Cows on the creek!

 "moooooo"ving the cows off of the trail

 Gorgeous day to sit outside!

 Nate took this picture. He told me to make a silly face.

 Stuck in the bed. This could be a good thing.

 Bowling with his preschool class.

 It's sleeting!
