Snow Day

Friday and today, about 10 or 12 inch's of very wet snow has fallen. The news is saying that when this melts, it will be the equivalent of 3 or 4 inches of moisture. We need it bad and should really green things up and quite the fire danger for a while.

Aly believes that this snow storm is a miracle and has really enjoyed playing in it. She got Adrienne out to build a snow bunny this morning complete with ears and a carrot, which Gerry then stole and ate. Gerry played in the snow too, he went into his crazy run and ran everywhere. I watched from the garage since I am still a gimp but enjoyed watching Adrienne and Aly play together.

Chicken and Basketball

On Saturday, Adrienne got three tickets to her company's suite to see the Nuggets. After waking up around 9:30 that morning, we laid low till dinner time. We went to the White Fence Farm for some chicken (and corn fritters) and then headed to the Pepsi Center to watch the Nuggets play the LA Clippers. This was Alys first NBA game and we got lucky as it was also kid appreciation night. They had all kinds of cheerleaders, fun music and all the mascots from all the teams in Colorado running around. We had a great time and Aly loved cheering for "Team Nuggets"! Nuggets won 120 - 104!

Aly looking a Wii Fit

We have a Wii balance board and the Wii Fit game that Adrienne uses to do some yoga and basic exercises with. We also play balance and skiing games with it too. Aly has taking a liking to yoga, not sure if it's because of Adrienne is doing it but she enjoys it. After this workout, Aly said she could feel the blood moving in her body and felt so much better. Does she know what she is talking about?

Day at The Stock Show

Today we went down to the National Stock Show. We got to smell the poop and see the animals. We saw lots of pigs and learned things we never new about them that was fascinating. We saw the cows being fluffed up with hair driers and hair spray for judging. Aly rode on a giant rocking horse and got to see a old wagon. We watched horse jumping and judging and walked around all the exhibits to see. Was a great time except Aly was tired and wanted no part at the end.

Sledding Down A Mountain...Really!!

We spent a few days with our friends Brian and Laura Gott in Gramby at their place. We took Aly sledding for the first time down part of the Sol Vista ski resort. We actually sledded down a ski run, an awesome way to do it! We were having a great time till the City called me back to town to plow streets...Oh-well, next time we will stay longer.

Disney Word Trip in Pictures

Here they are, pictures from our trip to Disney World. We had a unbelievable time and Aly we think truly enjoyed it. The weather was a little on the cool side but great none the less.

We did many fun things:

Rode Aly's First Roller Coaster(s), Splash Mountain and many more rides. Had Dinner at Chef Mickey's with Mickey, Dinner with Chip and Dale, Breakfast with The Princesses and Breakfast with Alice, Marry Poppins, Tigger and Pooh.

We also went on a African Safari, Watched 3D movies, watched the Castle light up for the holidays, saw three parades, and celebrated Aly's Birthday all week!

We had a blast with Mom and Dad / Ron and Jo / Grampy and Grammy and thank them for the idea and being able to share it with them. Enjoy the slide shows and movies. There is a lot to watch, but it is a great, MAGICAL place to share!
