Spring 2010

Spring 2010
We have had a crazy weather Spring here in Colorado. We have been able to enjoy the backyard, garden, ride bikes and then the Spring snow storm traps us inside for another day. We were able to venture to Shelf Road Colorado for a family weekend of climbing with the Rubins. It was better than expected and the girls had a blast roughing it outside and swimming at the hotel pool in the evening. It is so nice to have such great friends that share the same interests and are up for hanging Cliffside with small kiddos. We have also had several BBQ’s and spent some time up in Gross Reservoir. Will was able to venture off on a boys trip to Hueco Tanks, TX and Jen ventured down to St. George, Utah and Vegas with her girlfriends and partners in climbing and fun!! Lucette has been riding a Strider bike for a couple years. These are balance bikes that do not have wheels. We bought a bike for her to start to learn to pedal etc. We did not put the training wheels on and with 10 minutes of instruction she was able to start and pedal from one side of the neighborhood to another. Violet started riding the Strider and we hope to have her cruising around real soon. The Geese had 4 little babies on the farm in the back. A pair of ducks has come to the pond to have their babies. A curious Fox is visiting every morning and causing me some anxiety. I realize this is all in good nature, but I hate to look out and see 3 babies instead of 4! Will has been working really hard and continues to impress at work. My job has been busier than ever and I work really hard to balance family, work and play. Violet continues to impress us with her words and wisdom. She is learning to recognize letters and loves books about animals, horses and dogs. She has finished her Spring season of soccer and is enrolling in a swimming class this summer. The girls love playing together and continue to call each other, “best friend.” Lucette is finishing up her second year of pre-school and has 1 year of pre-K coming up in the fall. We have some incredible travel plans this summer and hope to spend lots of days at the pool.
