Stamp face on a Wed night

Asia went to a birthday party at Monkey Business and the goodie bag had a

black stamp in it. Let's just say that soap and water didn't work so well so she looked like a hobo at bible study!

Flag football

It is such a short 5 week session. In 7th grade they just offer flag football for everyone, Drew had 2 girls on his team. But, in 8th it is tackle and no girls seem to join!

Guess where I am? A great mousekeeper.

I am attending a Faith based travel conference. The choice was the Gaylord Palms for $200 a night or a value resort at Disney world for $50...ohhh what to choose! I got in late last night because I was routed via Chicago to Tampa. But what a happy surprise when I opened my door and this was the first thing I saw! I am home! What a great mousekeeper...for non-disney affenctionados that is the housekeeping department here! I did the resort tour today and will post on the Dazzlingdestinations travel site when I get back.

Halloween sad Butterflies

I actually didn't notice until I was doing this post that the girls looked sad. I guess pumpkin icecream makes one "sad"!

Lunch at the Keller's

These stools were going to be the death of me or one of my kids! They were obsessed with them. Everytime I wasn't looking, they were riding them up and down!

We can't believe that it has been 3 years since Les and Jeri moved to Windsor. They made us a huge Steak house type meal, Les doing the steaks and mushrooms. Jeri made home made french bread, homemade mac and cheese, salmon, shrimp, 2 pumpkin pies and salad. Do you know what Jade ate....she had half a steak, shrimp, salmon, bread and salad. After her pie, she had mac and cheese, salmon, then shrimp, some more mac and cheese, some salmon and finishing with some shrimp! And the high light was the bowl of Jelly Bellies!

Getting 5 girls ready for Chinese school and Dance

Now that's a bunch of girls! I actually was on time...I started 25 minutes early to get them in their clothes!

Tea at Serendipity for Brenda's BD

Since 1990, we have been going out to lunch on our Birthdays. Today we did Tea in historic downtown Littleton, at Serendipity. Our Birthdays are perfectly placed in each season. I am winter, my mom spring, Connie in the summer and Brenda in the Fall. Summer was our bonus, someday my girls will be well behaved enough to join us....maybe!

Candy Corn Gross

This wasn't the gross part, it was that she ate them!! ICK!!

Peak leaf peepin' in Vail

It was the peak Color, just gorgeous the whole drive.

The view from our balcony

We made it to Blu's for lunch. They serve breakfast all day. So I did get my green chile potatoes which are my favorite. I am so glad they have kept them on the menu for at least 15 years. They make great green chile.

Besides the green Chile, the location in right next to Gore creek.
Usually they are fly fishing here and we see kayaks.


United Vacations did their product Launch retreat in Vail. I took the gang to the Marriott. They had a great time, while I was in the seminars.

You know I'm sick if....

A corn picture

Asia and Isabella L.

The boys decided to stay in the dorms :-) ! The girls thought the Goodland KS Motel 6 was the place! Pop tarts, french fries and pop in bed...it doesn't get any better than this! The choice was motel 6 for $39, the Holiday Inn and Comfort Inn were $105...we were there to just sleep. Plus we have Vail next week.

Gathering flowers with friends. I just discovered Jade's yesterday...they were a science experiment for pond scum in her room-ick!
The center girl is Mei, her dad is from China. It was her mom that gave me the idea for Asia's name!

We went to Kansas for just 1 night. I really wanted to get a family picture this year in the Sunflowers...what better place than Kansas? Especially Bird City, Kansas where Big daddy and I met in 1980...28 years ago-yikes!!

I even had the family all dressed in white tops and blue jeans, but I didn't have the energy to even present the "idea" to Big daddy, besides I knew all the males in the car would have a huge protest! Plus, we had an extra male, Big daddy's bro with us. Sooo, I decided that it would just have to wait until Sunday. Well, Sunday I really did not feel good ...so all I got were a few girl corn pictures. I didn't even take a picture of the family on the spot where we met, that was my other plan. I must be sick!

Antique table, chairs, and plate rail shelf

I spoke with April and she said they could use it for Colleen or Tonya. But, if the Byers girls or anyone else is interested let me know. I got all of this for $125. So, whoever let's me know first can have it for $125. It is a sturdy table with 4 antique chairs.
