Some Highlights! February, March and April!


Here are some highlights from the winter months!!


1# Skiing:  We bought a 4-pack this year to Copper Mountain and really enjoyed our ski trips! Brian's mom and dad have a condo near Copper, so we were able to stay there with them on a few of our skiing weekends.  Our cousin Bryce is in a few of the ski photos, the kids have so much fun on the mountain!





#2 Visiting with Uncle Wil, Aunt Holly, Kiki & Kepler:  Wil came to Denver to visit us and his best friend from Alaska that now lives in CO Springs.  He took us out for a sushi lunch and it was AWESOME!  A couple of weeks after Wil came to Denver, we drove to Dallas for Spring Break to see Wil, Holly and the kids!  We stayed with Holly's family and had a great time!  We visited the Science Museum, Botanical Garden, horseback riding, pen making, and had Easter Egg hunt at Holly's sister Lily's house.  One of the funniest nights was when the kids wanted to take pictures with Himachi, Lily's GIANT dog!  The dog literally weighs the same as Aunt Holly!
















#3: Doctor Visits:  Definitely not as fun as Texas or skiing!  Aliana had surgery to put in eartubes - the surgery went great (praise Jesus!) and she was a trooper!  She had been failing hearing tests at school due to fluid in her ears that has not been draining properly.  The day after surgery she was already commenting on what sounded different and louder!  Carson had a full test for allergies this winter as well - we didn't find as much out as we had hoped.  Although he is not allergic to our little pets (mice/hamsters) so that is good!  He had some medication changes to his asthma inhalers that have NOT been successful so we are still working with the doctor! ("working with the doctor" translates to = paying $$ lol)



#4:  Time for Fun:  We've had time for lots of playdates (here is Aliana with our bestest friends Isla and Tatum), time to dye Easter eggs and celebrate the Resurrection of Christ, and time to attend Carson's art show at school!  It's hard to believe we only have about 6 weeks left of school!! #cantwaitforsummer
