Addison's 2nd Halloween--50's girl.
Addison's first Halloween--Pooh bear dressed as a honey bee
Mcayden's 2nd Halloween--Grrr Tiger!
Mcayden's first Halloween. Pooh bear dressed like a honey bee.
Pregnant with Mcayden. Rick and I were "Black-eyed P's" We needed a break. You know those days when you just need a vacation from reality and responsiblity? It was one of those weeks for us. So, we headed to the mountains with some good friends of ours and spent the day in Breckinridge. It was a cold, but just beautiful! Someday when we're rich, I think we'll have a place there. It's definately a fun place to be--I bet it's crazy once there's snow on the ground.
The Gardens on Spring Creek is a nice little kept secret here in Fort Collins. We went to their third annual Harvest Festival and strolled through the gardens, listened to the live music and checked out the artisan vendor marketplace. We bought some delicious Honey Cranberry-Apricot Oatmeal cookies from the Rouxful Gourmet. Yum. 
Addison is notorious for getting dirty. This little monkey can make anything dirty. Just try her, she will show you how it's done. Rick called me outside to take this picture one afternoon. Addison had been playing in the firepit coals/soot. When she realized she had been spotted, she jumped on her bike hoping for a quick get away. Oops, she got caught!
Rick and Mcayden were out of state, so we enjoyed a little "girl time"! My friend, Heather and her little girl, Josie came over for a Girl's Night. We had dinner, painted our toenails sparkley pink, dressed our little ones up with fairy wings and played. It was so much fun having time with them. We kept commenting on how quiet and calm it was without our rambunctious boys running around. It was a treat--they are so cute. They loved having their toenails painted.
For my friend Angie's birthday, we went shopping. All day. Just the girls. Too much fun. We had a blast picking out the ugliest clothes we could find, trying them on and then taking pictures. Seriously, anyone who buys clothes like this is crazy. Although, I think Angie could have gotten away with the zebra-like striped pants and 80's bow top.
Thanks for the FUN day of shopping, chatting and laughing, Birthday Girl!
