SLEDDING WITH FRIENDS
FEBRUARY 1, 2016
FEBRUARY 1, 2016
The kids had a great time sledding with friends near the Elementary school on the hills near the lower field. We couldn’t seem to get our tube sled to work before leaving the house so we just brought our other sleds. Luckily everyone shared their cool sleds so the kids had a ton of fun. The kids had the most fun on the Gillespie’s blow up double sled. During the last run the boys hit a tree branch and it accidentally popped a hole in it. Oops.
SNOW REMOVAL AT THE CHURCH
FEBRUARY 1, 2016
It was our turn to be in charge of the snow removal at the church and so Mike grabbed the boys and took them to help. There were a few other families that showed up but these boys worked hard and had fun with the mini snowplow they got to use on the sidewalks.
SNOWSTORMS AND ICE CYCLES
FEBRUARY 5, 2016
We have been having a lot of snowstorms lately. Since the temperatures have remained pretty cold we have been able to enjoy all the wicked looking ice cycles coming off the roof of our house.
SWIMMING IN THE WINTER
FEBRUARY 17, 2016
The nice thing about being a member of our club is the heated lap pool that is open all year long. The only time they close the pool is when the high temp for the day dips below 21F. I absolutely LOVE swimming in the winter. It is hard at first to get in but once I start swimming I am actually super warm. It is so refreshing.
ABBY & MIKE SINGING WITH THE GUITAR
FEBRUARY 22, 2016
Mike has been playing the guitar more lately and Abby just loves hanging out with him when he does. She loves to sing and so Mike taught her the words to “Mrs. Robinson.” It was so cute watching them together.
WINTER RUNNING AT GARDEN OF THE GODS
FEBRUARY 23, 2016
I love my morning runs with my running group. Today we did a hill workout up Rampart Range Road in Garden of the Gods. The view from the top was just beautiful as the sun was starting to rise.
THE RED SPORTY RENTAL CAR

While Mike’s car was in the shop getting repaired he had a rental car and they gave him this really cool red sporty car. The kids all thought it was the coolest car. They loved sitting in it while pretending to drive it.
WATERMELON GIRL
FEBRUARY 29, 2016
Emma is always hungry. Tonight she snacked on a very healthy piece of watermelon after getting out of the shower. She reminded me of a summer day even though we are in the middle of winter. She just looked so cute so I had to take a picture.
