Where did the first two months of this year go? Oh well, we've survived the snow so far here in Denver this winter. Thankfully this city is prepared and when it does snow most everything goes on as usual, just a little slower if you have to get somewhere. We are enjoying many hikes in the Mountains, snowball fights, and driving around to get ourselves more acquainted with the city. Here's a few pictures of the last two months.
January
Brothers.. they mostly love each other..Jake always says, "look how cute we are mom, take a picture of us!"
Here's Dan and Margie and Jake having a campout in the backyard in January. It only got to the mid 30's and they were super bundled up with sleeping bags inside of sleeping bags. Nobody got cold as far as I know. James and I slept inside.
A fabulous day for a hike! We love the trails here!
February
Playing in the snow! I finally got some snowpants for the kids and they were amazed at the amount of enjoyment they got out of playing in the snow and staying warm. It was a wonderful month to send them outside and let them play for a long time.
Margie as a mouse in her 1st grad production of the Tortoise and the hare. She was great! She knew all the words and sang so well, she got to wear the microphone around her neck for the deaf boy in her class. It amplified her voice into his hearing aid, she was pretty excited about it. She didn't try out for a part...no surprise, she's not about to have the limelight on her in public. Although you'd never know it by the way she acts at home, we're slowly breaking out of our shell this year.
(No talks in primary yet though... I'm not sure how to help them do it?) Oh well, she made a pretty cute woodland creature for the play and sang her heart out!

What a cool family-love that you're taking advantage of the snow and hiking. Dan is such a fun dad to camp with the kids in the backyard. What a guy! I wish we could see you soon!
