Go Nuggets!


Jake has been very disappointed in the Nuggets' performance in the last few games against the Lakers, especially since we keep receiving emails from Grandpa Steve in CA after each game. So, he decided to really cheer them on tonight - which hopefully won't be the last game of the series/season. :)

Happy Easter!!



We hope everyone had a wonderful Easter, you were in our thoughts & prayers! We had a very nice day, starting off with church at Coors Amphitheatre - which was a little cold since it had snowed the night before, but a nice change to be outdoors. Then we met Jason's parents and sister halfway between our houses for lunch, and had a nice time spending the afternoon with them. Now just two more days until Kelly's sinus surgery, which she is actually looking forward too and hoping it will be the answer to all the problems she has had this winter. Here are a few more pictures of our day, and of Jake's visit with the Easter Bunny!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!



Jake wanted to wish everyone a Happy St. Patrick's Day, and show off his skills. :)





And bath time is of course always so much fun...


Viva Mexico!!



Jason and I met our great friends Jace & Doug and Taryn in Playa del Carmen, Mexico for a few days of sun, relaxation, and drinks with umbrellas! :) We stayed at a Wyndham resort which was all-inclusive and had a great time. The weather was really good for the most part, we had one cloudy & cool day, but the rest of the time was warm and perfect for the pool/ocean. We left just in time, as all of the college kids came for spring break - were we ever that loud and crazy?!?! :) Overall we had a great time, and would recommend our hotel to anyone looking for a nice all-inclusive hotel with good food, drinks, pool, and activities. Here are some of our pictures:

The first night in Mexico...

The entrance to our hotel...

Tbe beautiful beach & ocean...

The guys weren't aware beforehand that one of the restaurants required pants, so sweat pants got us seated :) ...

Last night all together...

Last night for Kelly & Jason...

Sombrero anyone? :)

One last cocktail while we waited for a cab to take us to the airport... :(

February Trip to AZ



Jake and I decided we needed a little sunshine and warm weather, so we flew out to Phoenix for a long weekend at the end of February to visit my sister & her family. We had a great time, nice weather, and of course Jake & his cousin Drew had a fun time playing together.

Happy Valentine's Day!!



We hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day! Jason and I did our usual, fondue at home - though this year we had Jason's sister Rachelle join us. Jake even started celebrating a few days early. :) And Jason, always so thoughtful, brought home beautiful roses & tulips home - my two favorites! We love you all!

Weekend Away!



Jason had a business trip in Orlando this past week and so I decided a few days away in the warm sunshine sounded great... So, I used a free ticket and we went out a day early for a quick get away. Jason and I had a wonderful time, and tried to fit as much in as possible in three short days. The first night we headed to downtown Disney and Pleasure Island, we walked around awhile and had dinner while watching the last quarter of the Super Bowl (what a great game).




In our one full free day we decided to be big "kids" and so we visited three parks in one day...

First we went to Hollywood Studios...


Second we went to Epcot...


And ended the day with the Magic Kingdom.


And of course we did find time to stop and make a call home to check-in with Grandma Sharon who was staying with Jake. :)


Our last night we went to Disney's City Walk, and had dinner & drinks at Pat O'Brions - where it happened to be Fat Tuesday.


A great quick trip for us, but of course we were also glad to get home to see our little guy - who was busy at home re-arranging our cabinets while we were gone! :)
