Thomas the Tank Engine

The Women of Faith conference was in Denver this weekend and was amazing!! Very inspirational! I went with my mom the first day and my mother-in-law the second. Josh and Ella had a ton of fun together while I was gone! He took her to see Thomas the Tank Engine who was in town at the railroad museum. They said it was awesome! Ella won't stop talking about her days with daddy, very cute:) She is blowing a Thomas train whistle in one of those pictures.

Lollilocks Hair Salon

Ella LOVES getting her hair cut!! There is a kid's salon by our house called Lollilocks that we go to. She always picks the pink elephant to sit on. That place is so cute! Her favorite part is getting sparkles sprayed in her hair and of course the lollipop!

Vail

I was a volunteer for the Colorado Relay in Vail. The relay was 174 miles through the mountains for 36 hours straight! My time slot was from 10:00pm to 4:00am!! It was so much fun and CRAZY! My mom and I made a girls night out of it and got a hotel with Ella and went to Oktober Fest in Vail. There was a big festival with beer, live bands and great German food!! We also saw a car made out of legos from LegoLand.

Wings Over the Rockies Museum

Wings Over the Rockies is a museum by my parents house. Josh and I actually had prom there one year in high school! It's full of planes from various wars. It also has a plane that was in the Star Wars movies that Luke flew. Josh and Ella took a ride on a plane themselves:)

Glory Days at Lowry

We took some of Ella's friends (Alexis, Sydney and Ty) to Glory Days at Lowry by my parents house to meet my mom. It was a festival for kids and was a ton of fun! They had a live band, food, face painting, jumping houses, dancers, arts/crafts, trampoline bungy, etc.! The kids were running around non-stop! Then we went to the airplane museum too...more pictures to follow.

Fun with Ty

This is Ella's friend Ty. They are 2 weeks apart and get along so well! They always have so much fun together:)

Color Me Mine (Pottery)

This was our first attempt at the Color Me Mine studio. Ella and her friend Ty decided to paint some fish pottery. They actually did a really good job! We were surprised! We'll see what the final product looks like after we get them back next week! Her other friends Alexis and Sydney painted a mermaid and a flower vase.

Hula Hoopin' on Wii

We have a Wii that Ella loves to play! In this video she is standing on a fit board and hula hooping. She has to move her body in a circle in order for her character on the TV screen to keep the hula hoop going! It's hilarious! It's actually one of my favorites! It's so much fun and even more fun watching other people doing it! Sorry about the video being sideways...I can't figure out how to turn it around!

Taste of Colorado

On Monday we met up with some other good college friends Chris and Molly and their little girl Emily at the Taste of Colorado. Sorry we didn't take very many pictures! We were too busy walking around and catching up. Ella had fun running around the scuptures at the art museum! It was so nice to see you guys!!!!

CU vs. CSU

We tailgated with a bunch of college friends and went to the University of Colorado vs. Colorado State University football game! It was awesome!!! It's always such a good game and a very CRAZY crowd!
