Making Memories Monday

So, we had another fun Monday this week. We started out taking a hike in Boulder. The kids did great and had so much fun.



Here is our little Averie...she loves the camera!



Pre hike.


Mid hike getting a ride from daddy



Another pose at a different rock!!



Don't know whyI love this one so much but I do. He just looks so cute holding his water bottle hiking away.



Taking a little break sitting on a stick.



Daddy I fell and scraped my knee



See...



Thanks daddy...I feel better!



Holding hands and enjoying the hike






Me and my girl



Sitting on a rock checking things out



After the hike we took a stop at the park.




Going down the slide with Lincoln. Love how this shot turned out. Minus the scared look on my face!!




The park was fenced in and it was nice to let them just play around.






After our hike and walking Pearl Street we headed to Flatirons Mall to get our family favorite Red Mango!




Don't know why kids love the Escalator but they do...
They would have been content to just up and down the whole time!!!





Hi Mom!
Then we hit the huge sand box outside. Averie quickly made a friend and well Lincoln found the dump truck !




and lots of sand to put in his dump truck












Love my little dude.

Time to go.



I just love this one of them walking away together...so cute




Me and my little Princess. She is growing up SO fast







A long day made for some hungry kids so we headed over to Qudoba and got some Naked Burritos!!! Yum!




We checked the mail on the way home and to our surprise we had another fun thing awaiting. A package for our Favorite Auntie Kate. It was titled Summer Fun. It is always exiting to get a package in the mail from Auntie Kate!!!




We told them after they cleaned up and were ready for bed they could open the package. Baths went VERY quick that night. Lincoln got a tool book, which he hasn't stopped playing with and his new summer hat




Averie and her treasures. She also got a summer hat and a book and journal.




Thanks again Auntie Kate...we love you!!!







We had such a GREAT day. One thing I have been trying to do is find something new every week that we can do that is free or very close to it. If anyone has suggestions I am open. Think local park hopping and a picnic is on the agenda next.





























































So, lately we have really enjoyed our family time on Monday. Last week it was the Museum and this week we enjoyed several fun places. First we started off by going to Boulder for a hike.

Museum Monday

Last Monday we went to the Children's Museum. This time Danton was able to go and we were able to enjoy the Bubble Room!!!

First Averie has to be a firefighter and go over all her information in case of an emergency. Then Lincoln took a shot at the 911 phone call and was quite fun to listen to.

The Bubble Room. Averie was so excited to go to this room. Here she is standing in a cage of bubbles.
Here she is blowing on it. Pretty cool!

Ballet Recital

Last weekend was Averie's Ballet Recital. I may be biased but I think think she is a beautiful ballerina.






She was a little nervous her first night but she rocked it her second performance. She LOVES to dance and we do a lot of dancing around our house.







Kindergarden Graduation

So, I can't believe she is done with KG. Here is a picture of her on her last day of school.




Getting her Diploma


Averie and her friend Aiden.


Mrs. B (teacher's asst), Averie, and Mrs. Pears (her teacher)

We will miss them SO much next year. They did such a great job with her!!


Things she learned. She has amazing penmanship, she loves to read and is getting better and better. She loves art. She loves math (funny because that's her mom's favorite too!!!!) She just loves to learn and loves school I love that about her and hope it last for a while longer.

Until first grade everyone!!!!
