Memorial Day Weekend 2017: Grandparents Visit

Hooray!  New playmates for the long weekend :)

Papa loves fish and decided to share his passion with the kids.  He brought the entire set-up plus 3 fish on the airplane!

Loading the fish into their new home which is set up on Jameson's bookshelf.  Jameson decides to name the two female fish "Cute Girl" and "Cuttie Pie" and the male fish "Awesome Brave".  Sadly, over the coming months only "Awesome Brave" survives.

Fun at the local park.

Chilly spring hike up in the Poudre Canyon.

Our picnic lunch turned into a car lunch, keeping us dry and warm.  It was still quite fun!!!

Learning how to play velcro ball catch.

End of preschool 2017

Congratulations Jameson!!!  While Ms. Jennifer and Ms. Heather will miss you next year, they're already looking forward to having Ava in their class :)

A surprise kiss for Ms. Heather!

Graduation/promotion to pre-k celebration.

Ava isn't feeling so sure about this "graduation" and is probably wondering why all of the adults are crying?!?!?

Of course it snowed on graduation day!

What a way to ring in summer vacation...some hot cocoa and a little...

...indoor sibling fun!

Mother's Day 2017

To celebrate Mother's Day, we stopped at Lowes and picked out flowers for the backyard.

My little helpers assisted in digging holes and placing the flowers.  It was a beautiful Mother's Day and I got to enjoy the flowers all summer long!!
