Summer Installment #3: Colorado

So I realize that this is only 3 months late but here is another summer installment.

After UT we went to Boulder, Colorado for a week. It was SO gorgeous!

This is my sister Alicia's backyard.

Mr Micah had his 1st birthday. It was special because I was with them one year ago when she gave birth to him! Because he is on a special diet we put some candles in a pear and he dug in.

Unfortunately we all got a little flu bug for a few days. Levi got it first. We knew he was sick when he just crawled up on the couch and zonked out!

While I was taking my turn being sick Can took the kids to Winter Park....isn't it gorgeous?

Love this picture! Levi is nervous and Elyse is having a blast!

The kids had so much fun getting to know Miss Sage.

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween from the dead duchess/flamenco dancer, the dead cat complete with bullet wound, the (not) scary vampire, and the lame-o camera man who didn't dress up.

Lemonade Sale

While we were in Boulder visiting Alicia and family, the kids decided to have a lemonade sale with neighbor Gusty. Umm yup, its Gusty. Please take note of my sons rendition of the funky chicken.

Dashboard

I love Dashboard Confessional. They are one of my top 3 favorite groups.

This is one of my favorite songs that they sing. Its hard to choose because every time I hear one of their songs I think ooh thats my favorite, but wait so is that one.

To the Maxx!

I LOVE TJ Maxx and now that they have opened up just 8 short blocks from me, TJ's will love me too. Sadly the Can Man and my bank account will not.

And sadly there are a set of stairs (note I said A set, which means one flight) which means that all of the old ladies/lazy people want to cram onto the teensy tiny elevator at once and leave the stroller pushers in the dust. Today a blue hair almost got her rear bruised from the door because she squooshed (not a word I know) so hard. After she dove in mind you. (You can dive but you can't climb?) But to be honest I was more worried about her bending the part of my stroller that she was smashed up against.

Half Marathon and old

Excuse the extremely fuzzy picture but as you will see this was my time from the half marathon I ran a few weeks ago. Well its not my actual time, but it is the time that I got when I finally figured out how to stop the stop watch on the borrowed watch I was wearing. My actual time is 1:57, so ya know huge difference. I was super stoked that I made my goal of 2hrs. I loved running it and can't wait for the next one. But my knees can definitely wait. They still hurt, yikes perhaps I'm getting old. Good thing I have about 6 years before I turn 29. Gulp.

Colbert Report

Hee larious. But truly an important issue. It is ridiculous that we can buy beer at every Duane Reade in the city but Raw milk is illegal.
