Corbin's 4

The only thing he seriously wanted for his birthday was a Football Cake!! So I made his wish come true. It was fun as I formed it out of rice crispy treats and placed it on a regular cake. He was excited to see his name and #4 on it.

Got his own pillow pet!   =)

We had a fun little birthday. Corbin is such a bright and active boy. Some of the things he loves to do include baseball, riding bikes, running, climbing and having his siblings around, especially Everitt. He can't wait to ride the school bus and a horse "all by himself." He loves animals, cars and Pooh Bear movies. Makes me smile every time he asks for 'yourgit' (yogurt); 'chechup' (ketchup); or 'basketti' (spaghetti).  I know those days of cute words are coming to an end. Sad to see him grow up and yet exciting. We love our little man.

Happy 4th Birthday Corbie!

Kindergarten Fieldtrip

Alayna's class took a trip to Miller Farms where we got to play and pick lots of fresh crops. We brought home some great produce and had to cook up a stew.

Fun in the corn rows!

Have a spook-tacular harvest!

Labor Day Outing

We decided to head up to RMNP again today. Not a preplanned trip so it was a late start but a great day to be outside in the mountains. We hiked up Lawn Lake trail to the river, where Justin tried fishing for awhile. The kids and I discovered some wild raspberry bushes. They were awesome, made me miss the ones in my old back yard. (Grand Lake) It was fun, eating them as fast as we could pick them. Kids climbed around on some of the large rocks and found a cool cave as we hiked back down. Next, we headed to the Alluvial Fan at the base of the river. There was a dam at the top of the river that broke in 1982, sending down a massive amount of water and washing out much of the banks and leaving in its trail some awesome boulders to hike. In all my years living just over the divide I don't think we ever came to play here. I was excited, and we all had a blast.

 OH YEAH!

 Of course after all that hiking we kids wanted to put their feet in the water. Yes, it was cold.
