FALL SEPTEMBER 2008

JAKE'S BIRTHDAY WEEKEND!

A couple of shots of Jake at his party. He had lots of fun! He also had his first flagfootball game. He just loves football. I still think he is going to ask me to play the real game next year...ugh!

The weekend was fun and tiring. We took the boys up to Shaw Pass - just pass Echo Mountain for a really nice hike. I always forget to bring a sweater when up in the mountains as it was a little chilly. We took the blanket up with us and had a picnic off the mountain eating Subway..yum...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAKE!!

Our little Jake will be 7 tomorrow - September 6th. He is so excited for tomorrow to come. We are going to pick up Nicky tonight at the airport. It will be nice that he can spend the day tomorrow with his brother. We will be celebrating his birthday at Color Me Mine. Jake loves to paint, draw, etc. It will be a football theme as we are all getting pumped up for the Broncos to begin the season. Thanks pop for the gift - we'll give it to him on his birthday. :) Here are some pictures of our time together while he was on school break. They go back to school next week. Yippeeeee.

WEATHER IS CHANGING

A couple of weeks ago we were having dinner with some friends and noticed a couple of funnels forming. They have an awesome view of the Colorado Rocky Mountains. It seems that we had quite a few tornadoes touch down in Parker. Kids were running around excited and ready to depart to the basement in the event it came any closer. I never knew that Parker got tornadoes. We had to put some cardboard on my car so that the golf ball like hail didn't damage the roof. Here is another couple of shots after the storm pasted.
