CARVING PUMPKINS!!

After a day of sledding we went inside and carved pumpkins.


The finished products: These pumpkins belong to Journey (haunted house) and Jaci (BOO!)
These pumpkins belong to Graham (scary face) and Joey and I (Mummy ripping through pumpkin)
...and at last Cades (Mummy)

SNOW DAY SLEDDING!!!

It finally stopped after 3 days. The kids had 3 snow days and on day 4 the sun came out and now we prepare for the meltdown.

FALL FUN!!

We had beautiful 80 degree weather both Sat and Sun this weekend and were able to get some yard work done.
Journey and Ellie were a big help.
They then had fun playing in the pile.

ESTES PARK

Our first softball free weekend Jason thought it would be a good idea to get out of town and go look at the fall colors in the mountains. We headed up to Rocky Mountain National Park. We stopped in Estes Park for lunch and never left. We didn't make it to the park not did we see much fall colors, but we did have a nice time walking around Estes Park for the afternoon.

MORE ESTES PARK FUN!!

Although though we never made in inside Rocky Mtn National Park it looks like all the deer/elk never did either. On the way out there were TONS of deer/elk on a local golf course.
