Vacation 2014

The George boys had a fabulous trip to Colorado. We toured Colorado Springs first. We went to the Manitou Cliff Dwellings, the Pikes Peak Cog Railway, Garden of the Gods, and the Mollie Kathleen Goldmine in Cripple Creek. We ate some yummy food and drank some awesome beers! We then traveled to Estes Park. We met up with Matt's cousins there. We rode horses, hiked in Rocky Mountain National Park, road the Estes Park Aerial Tram to feed chipmunks, and swam at our awesome resort. Finally, we traveled to Denver for Daddy's cousin's wedding. It was an amazing trip and we will always have some great memories!

Busy Boys!

Our summer started off crazy busy! The big boys got their green belts for karate, they all 3 had baseball teams, we had swimming lessons with our best buddies, and all 3 did Vacation Bible School at Church. It was a great month of June, but definitely looking forward to a calmer July!

B is 9!

Wow! My big boy is 9! And he is such a trooper. We had scheduled to have his birthday party on his actual birthday, but when his Grandpa had last minute surgery and we had to drive to Iowa to see him, we had to reschedule his bash for the following week. We still had a great time. We had all of the neighbors over for ice cream, cupcakes, and baseball. We had strawberry limeade cupcakes and every kid went home with sunflower seeds, cracker jacks, and gummy hot dogs! Fun! Fun!

Spring Break 2014

This past week was Spring Break 2014. We started off the week with a fun play date and St. Patty's day fun at Ms. Megan's. On Tuesday, C had a 1st grade party and had about 7 friends over to play. Tuesday night, we picked up Gma and Gpa Huber from the airport. We had a BLAST with them on our staycation. We started off with ice cream at Sheridan's, of course! On Wednesday, we went on a great walk to find some gnome houses on a secret trail. We did indeed find them! We had an incredible dinner at food network star Aaron Sanchez's restaurant Mestizo! Yummy! His margarita was almost as good as Bobby Flay's! On Thursday, we had a picnic, went spice shopping, had some awesome coffee, and some good eats at a bakery. We also rode bikes and went for a walk at the park. It was a BEAUTIFUL day! On Friday, we headed on a marble tour factory. It was so cool! The boys got lots of old time toys...a chineese jump rope, a magic 8 ball, a Jacob's ladder, and a magnet mustache thing. So fun! Mom and I got to do some shopping and of course, Gpa needed more ice cream! On Saturday, we had to say goodbye, but the boys had fun driving up to the airport. Our last day of fun involved a trip to the airport down south. We had a really fun breakfast with GIANT pancakes. C and A had airplane shaped pancakes. B ate an entire plate of french toast and a sausage. What a piggy! Matt's pancakes were as big as his face!
