Showing off her stuff

Random pics

Some of these pictures are a little old, oops.

Playing in the kitchen. Jocelyn likes to play in there while we are cooking or cleaning up. She has discovered measuring spoons which she loves to try to eat with.



Playing in the play room. Okay it is actually a sun room and it is usually freezing cold or boiling hot, but she loves it.



Putting jewelry on Roxy. She loves the cat so much more than the cat loves her.



Cute elephant in City Park, aka duck poop park. The poop is all over the place on the sidewalks and grass, but at least the toys were spared.


Watching TV. This is not a posed picture. Jocelyn loves to be comfy on the bean bag while she is watching her favorite shows - Dora and Diego. She loves the shows so much that she smiles at the TV.


Joss' rain dance


Making the ducks swim in the sink


Playing in Stapleton. Aah, I am dreaming of next summer already!

The maple tree

We have been in Denver for four months and have experienced three seasons already.  Autumn was by far the shortest due to the early snow storms we have had.  I told Trent that Halloween and snow do not belong in the same sentence and he said that's because I grew up in California.  I do enjoy the seasons changing here, but I just wish that winter would hurry up and end.

Anderson Farms

We went to Anderson Farms in Erie to celebrate the Fall. We all had such a fun time. We got to see cute animals, get lost in a corn maze, pick some pumpkins from the pumpkin patch, and ride in some barrels. The highlight for me was eating funnel cake and drinking lemonade. We can't wait to go back next year!

Cutest laugh ever

Happy Halloween!

Joss was a giraffe this year - the warmest costume we could find. You can tell she was real thrilled about having the hood on - which she took off immediately. The best part was the huge bum she was rocking!

Mi familia

I love my little family. Here are some random pictures . . .


Photo opportunity at the Denver Zoo. Too bad the elephant wouldn't turn around and smile for the camera.


Joss getting ready to go fishing with Dad


My two lovebugs on the beanbag


Here they are trying to trick me into thinking they are asleep!


I love this picture because it shows how happy Joss and Trent are. They love each other SO much.

Visitors

While Trent went to hunting camp in Wyoming, my parents, Aunt Dorothy, and friend for life Heather came to visit. We had an awesome time and Jocelyn was in heaven having so much attention. We went to the Denver Art Museum and ate at a restaurant with cliff divers. :) We also got to give Xena her first bath when she got into a fly trap filled with fermenting flies. UGH, I have NEVER smelled anything worse in my life! But all in all, it was a wonderful long weekend.

















Here is Aunt Dorothy learning to use the Doodle Pro.

Hair

Jocelyn's hair is growing longer every day, which means we get to do some new fun hairstyles . . .






However, my hair got a lot shorter. I still have to mail in the donation - I have an 8-inch ponytail in a plastic bag. :)

October

We're still alive, even if the blog is somewhat dead. We have actually been having a lot of fun, but I am mourning the end of summer. Thankfully we left for California the weekend that the first snow storm hit here. On an even better note, today's high was 84 degrees! Other highlights of today were when Jocelyn said in church (loudly and several times): "I love you, Mommy." :) People probably think I am the best mom in the world.

Here is Jocelyn in her white dress she only wore once from a few months ago; no more white now that Labor Day is long gone. More recent pictures will be coming soon . . .
