Happy Birthday Desi and Jason

We went over to my parent's house Wednesday night to celebrate Desi and my brother Jason's birthdays.
I guess our kids love their daddy!

Owen really loves his Uncle Jason!

Who doesn't love cheesecake?!

The kids loved having all four of their grandparents together.

A few cute kid pics...

I did not pose any of these pics!



I need to look at these when the kids are screaming and remember that they can be pretty cute too!

Estes Park Vacation

We rented a cabin in Estes Park YMCA last week with Desi's parents, Des & Jan and his sister Shannon. We spent 4 nights there and enjoyed the quiet and beautiful outdoors! We saw some elk and deer from our cabin. We enjoyed fishing, swimming, games, crafts and walks. My parents, Paul & Kate came out for one day to visit. It's about 70 miles from Denver and possibly the most beautiful place in Colorado. Our last day we drove into Rocky Mountian National Park, which was breath taking. We'll be back for sure. Next time you can come with us! -Rose

We went to Latara Duell's graduation party and the cake was a hit with Emma! That's frosting on my girl, not make-up!

Happy Mother's Day!

We enjoyed a nice lunch with my parents and Grandma Kate covered the coffee table so we could color all over it!

Good Idea...

When there's no room in your van for your motorcycle and extra tires, just strap 'em on the top and sides!

Who goes to Aspen for free?

Well, we got to! A man we never met had some time shares in Aspen and wanted to bless pastors and their families with a 5 day, 4 night stay in the new Grand Hyatt in Aspen. We were so blessed to be able to go and had a wonderful time!

Walking around Aspen...I guess people like to go skiing up there!

On our last night there, Aimee surprised me with a birthday cake! YUM! FYI, my birthday was Saturday!

The family...notice Emma, not really happy...that's a 2yr old for you!

Walking with the Dokes family downtown...

A view of our room...we had the three balconies at the top!

Our little mermaids...loved the warm pool!

A mountian we came upon while driving into Aspen...is that Aspen? We don't know, it's just pretty! All of Colorado is beautiful, especially the mountains, especially this time of year!

What a blessing! -Rose
