Biggest Snow Storm '08/'09

This was seriously the best winter ever! I mean, who can beat 70 degree weather in Jan and Feb and then we can go ski in the Mountains anytime we want to make cute snowmen and drink hot chocolate! But this much snow at the end of April is crazy. We got way less snow than predicted this yr, until this past weekend. Although we were still under, this storm brough 1/3 of the predicted snow fall for this winter season! Now thats A LOT of snow! Unfortunately it came when Shelly was here visiting,luckily her flight wasn't cancelled so she could get back to Ohio to finish up the school yr. (We did spin into a 360 on the way to the airport :))

The was pretty and Kennedy and Chloe got to make 2 snowmen with Gabe in the front yard, which melted the next day when the 70 degree weather came back!

.....And how did my tulips survive!

I am thinking that is about 2ft of snow, pictures don't even give it justice!

Pulled out these chairs the day before so I could sit in the sun!

Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre!

Last week Shelly,one of my best friends from Dayton, Ohio, came to visit! She was here for 4 days, the first two we had great weather, the second two, not so good. That is when the biggest snow storm of the yr decided to come, which I will blog about after this one. On wed last week we figured we better get in as much outdoors stuff as we could. So in the morning we went to Red Rocks! We have lived here a year and this was my first time and its one of the closest things to go do in Denver and it was absolutely beautiful. We will definately be going back and hopefully get to see a concert there. The girls had a great time climbing on the rocks and running all around. Our friend Stephany also came with us which was great since she had been there before. There is a visitor center to go through that shows the many people that have performed there.

Here is Kennedy climbing on the Rocks!

Kennedy and Shelly!

Baby Avie! (I was holding her in the back so she wouldn't tumble)

I also took Shelly to Boulder Falls, but we couldn't walk all the way back because there was falling rock.

Happy Easter!

Our Girls!

Would've been great if Chloe's eye were open!

Its so hard to get a good one of all three together!

Ava squirming away.

Trying to get a good pic of Chloe and Ava, but someone can't sit still.

This is a pretty cute one!

Kennedy... So pretty!

Chloe, my little ham!

Pics of Ava climbing and rolling all over the couch, I'm shocked I got some good ones!

The eggs the girls colored!

SNOW!!!

A couple of weeks ago we got a pretty big snow storm! The schools actually closed before the snow even came(first time ever in Co.), becouse it was going to be soooo big. It was a lot of snow but not as big as we got this past weekend.

I didn't take the girls out to play in it, cuz I figured they have had enough of the white stuff all the times we had taken them to the ski resorts and quite honestly I'm just ready for spring and summer.

But Chloe did get to go have fun out there while Gabe shoveled the driveway! She looked so cute playing with her daddy, she kept throwing snowballs at him, laughing her little head off! And then hot chocolate for everyone!
