I Prayed About It.

Funny story about Amanda

We where out on my Parents deck trying to see the air planes fly overs the Air Force football game, but Amanda doesn't like being on deck becaues she can see through the floor, which scares her. So she turns to me and says "Mommy I need to go inside! Then I said" No , we need to see the plans." The she said "I have a promble and I prayed about it , and I need to go inside! Hahaha She is not even 3 yet! To funny!!!!

Amanda has something to tell you!!!

That right we are having a baby due in April 2011.

Lana 's Birthday

For my birthday Carson took me on a picnic right next to a stream. It was soo peaceful and nice. We had fun playing in the water. Here's our family picture.

Amanda and Mommy

This is how much Amanda loves water, too cute!!

Home Depot Story

Carson had to go to Home Depot to get some parts for the sprinklers to work. He took Amanda because she LOVES to ride in the orange "car" shopping cart. But they didn't have the right parts. When they got back home Carson went around the side of the house to try to get the spinklers to work with the old parts with Amanda following right behind him. Amanda said, "I want the water to come out." Carson told her no we actually want this to work and keep the water in, BUT it probably wont, thats when Amanda leaned in close and said "We can go back to Home Depoooot!!!" because if it is still broken that means another trip to Home Depot and another ride in the orange "car" shopping cart. TOO FUNNY!!!!!

Camping

We had Carson's brother Kevin and two of his kids Scott and Hailey come to vist for a couple days. One of the things they wanted to do was go camping. When we got there it was snowing , while we were putting up camp. It didn't stop until after we got our campsite all setup.This was Amanda's frist time camping. Look at that happy camper.

Easter

Amanda loved coloring the eggs .

Amanda with the Easter bunny at the mall. She loved seeing him.I thought she would be scared NO WAY I was wrong she ran right up to him and sat on his lap. To cute . We took her to the mall for the radio station Easter egg hunt and it was soo crazy there was soooo many people there. But at least she got some eggs.

Our Family Easter picture. I love Amanda's dress and purse . Thanks mom for the purse.

Casa Bonita

We went to Denver to take Cathy to the airport. We decided it would be a great time to go to Casa Bonita. We got there just as they opened which was great because normally you have to wait in line for about an hour or so. Carson and I could not belive it we didn't even have time to look at the menu before to got to the place where you order, which if we had to wait in line you have time to look. Our table was right in front of the waterfall where they have divers, and different shows. If you have never been to Casa Bonita you should look it up on youtube IT'S AWESOME!!!!

Here is our Family behind the waterfall.

My girl and me, you can kind of see the waterfall and stage behind us.


Amanda having fun riding the pony.

Snowman

In march we got a big snow storm right in the middle of Carson's spring break. We got a about 8 inches of snow. It was too cold to go outside so I brought the snow in for Amanda to play with, her favorite thing to do with the snow is EAT IT. One day of blizzard, the next day in the 60's I LOVE COLORADO!! Great for us, not so much for ol' frostys life expectancy (about 3 days).

Bike Ride

Today Carson started his spring break from school. We took advantage of the great weather and went on a family bike ride to the park.Here is carson and Amanda.

Amanda loves to swing. She is so good she only needs one hand.

Amanda all ready to go !!!

Children's Musuem

Grandpa Riggs, Mimi ,Annie,Amanda and I went to the Children's Musuem in Peublo. Amanda loved this room the best she got to sing. That is one thing she loves to do. If you look next to Amanda on the floor there is a little square you got to push the square and it would give you the beats to the music.
Dress up as Cleopatra So pretty.
