Sock Hop

We also got back just in time for the girls to go to the Johnson Elemetary Annual Sock Hop! They had a great time as usual:)

Pride Award!

We got back from Florida just in time for Allie to get a pride award from school for "Participating Positively!" We are so proud:)

Disney World!!!

We were lucky enough to tag along with Andy on a work trip to Orlando! It was very productive for us...we got to see Andy's Dad and Step Mom and my brother, Brian! We all had a very fun day at Magic Kingdom together. Everyone had to head back home for work, but the girls and I kept on playing, visiting Epcot and Hollywood Studios! Andy was able to meet up with us when he was done with work! Fun, fun, fun!!!

Spelling Bee

WOW! Kayla was in the Spelling Bee at school yesterday! She studied so hard this last week, words that we had no idea what they meant or even how to pronouce at times! She had a goal to not be the first person out and she ended up getting 2nd place! It was pretty intense and stressful for Andy and I, but words cannot express how proud we are of her! Here are a few pictures...I couldn't take many, I was too nervous! P.S. It was Pj day at school:)

Waiting to begin....


The group is getting smaller and smaller...


And then there were 3!


And 2!!!


Her last word! Missed 1 letter ULULATE!

Happy I had my camera along!

We went to the CSU men's basketball game Saturday night....something we do quite often, but this night turned out to be an extra special one! The girls were chosen to do some pre-game waving for the camera and to receive a basketball from one of the starters during introductions! They were so excited! After the game they got to shoot around on the court and Allie was finally able to get her picture with her favorite player Andy Ogide! (She can't wait for me to get this post done so she can check out her their picture whenever she wants!) Last but not least, Marc and Quinten joined us and we had a ton of fun watching Quinten see a basketball game for the first time! GO RAMS!

Allie also had her picture in the paper!

Happy Birthday Andy!

Today is Andy's 34th birthday! We celebrated last night with family and friends...We started the night with dinner at Old Chicago's and then we all headed to the Colorado Eagles hockey game! It was a ton of fun and he was actually suprised by all my planning:) Here's to a better year than last!

Happy 2011!

We had a really fun New Year's this year! We booked a room at the Embassy Suites(our favorite!) along with our friends, the Benson's! We had such a fun time having drinks, letting the kids swim, playing games, almost midnight pizza snack and ringing in the new year with a ton of other people in the hotel that had the same idea!

Added bonus: We ran into some friends from school!

We are ready to see what 2011 has in store! Happy New Year:)
