Happy Valentines Day!

When Kaylynn woke us up this morning she came in and said "You have to wake up - today is a big day - it's VALENTINES DAY!" She has already made a craft with construction paper and hearts and had heart-shaped french toast for breakfast. She slept in her heart pj's. And she wore her new heart dress yesterday to her school party. (I am sure she will wear it again today, too!) We also put her hand print and hearts on her memory table cloth last night. She thinks this is a great holiday! Here are some pictures.

Thanks for the great Valentines gifts, Grandpa and Grandma!

On a different note, here is Kaylynn sporting her first shiner! Makes her look tough, don't you think?!

Catching up

As promised, here is a picture of Cory putting up the new light in our front entry way. He did survive climbing over the railing upstairs to get on the 18' ladder that we could not extend all the way because it was too wide at the base. The most important thing is that I really like the new light. I consider it a bonus that Cory was not hurt in the process.


We went to the Great Western Stock Show here in Denver a few weeks ago.

Kaylynn seemed to enjoy the rodeo - or maybe it was just the lollipop she had.


Here is our Governor holding on for dear life on the Wells Fargo coach.


(Weird!) Uncle Pete came down for a visit last weekend too. Kaylynn gets a big kick out of him (now!). They had fun playing baseball in the back yard, among the other things they did. The girl can really hit - too bad Pete is so tall and was able to snag this one.

Here is a picture with Aunie and James too.

Finally, we held our annual Super Bowl party and here are a few pictures of the kids with their 3-D glasses on.



Sorry for all the random pictures! We have been so busy lately, I have been terrible about taking pics. Kaylynn took 5 weeks of ski lessons, which she seemed to enjoy (as long as she got to ride the chair lift, not the carrot tow!). Cory was always too busy skiing himself to take pictures of that! She is now having a great time with swimming and dance lessons. She keeps us going, but seems to be enjoying all her activities.
