May 2012

So as you can see I am catching up on the last 6 months!! Yikes, sorry for the long delay in the photos getting on the blog. It has been fun the last two days going through the last half year and looking at all of the fun memories. I feel like this year is flying by and it is only going to get faster:) I hope you all enjoy the photos going all the way back to November of last year, wow:)

May is coming to an end but it has been a very fun month full of outings, Mother's Day and a very special graduation! Here are some photos from this month!

Denver has some amazing museums and we have been taking advantage of the free days they have been offering. It just so happened that the Art museum and Nature/Science Museum had free days this month.

The Art museum was up first! It is the first time that we have taken the kids to a real Art Museum and it was great to see and hear there reactions to different styles. They had seven floors each dedicated to a different style, country or period. We were able to take in everything from Native American artwork and costumes to sculptures of Buddha. They even had an exposition on Yves Saint-Laurent which included a catwalk, I will give you one guess who strutted her stuff down that:)

Ashley the supermodel!

The kids also loved all the giant sculptures outside of the museum including these giant cows!

The next weekend we took in the Science and Nature Museum. It was an amazing museum filled with Dinosaur skeleton's, wildlife dioramas and the hit of the day live lizards and snakes! We ended up spending most of the afternoon there since all of the exhibits were great.

Car picnicking before going in:)

The dino's were amazing!

Mother's Day 2012

Breakfast in bed, cards and a day out with my family what a great day! In the afternoon we headed up to Boulder for the day. We went up and toured the Celestial Seasoning's Tea factory. It was so fun and as you will see in the later photos we even got to wear hairnets, awesome:)

My two babies, I am so proud to be your mommy!

 

Hairnets!!

We then headed to downtown Boulder and Cameron had to stop to see the stadium:)

Ashley's Preschool Graduation 2012!

My little baby is heading off to Kindergarten next year! I said it at the top of this post but I am starting to feel that every year is going faster and faster! It has made me realize that I need to slow down sometimes and enjoy the small moments because they are only young once. Ashley's preschool has been amazing and I am thankful that she has had such a wonderful opening experience to school. In the fall she will be going to a.m. kindergarten five days a week, wow!

 

Ashley's preschool teachers put together a beautiful book of memories from the year!

Little miss graduate!

Nothing like a diploma and a cupcake!

My parents were back in Denver at the end of May after their big trip to Europe! It was great to see them again before they headed back to California. Ashley and I were painting one day and my dad decided he wanted to join in. He mentioned he had never sat down and painted before, ever!!! After he was done he was very proud of his painting and even took it back to California with him:) It was very cute!

The painters!

Dad and his first masterpiece!
