HAPPY HALLOWEEN!! One of these days I will post pictures! (I hope). Today has been so incredibly beautiful! Hard to believe we had over 2 feet of snow 2 days ago and a snow day for Kiersten and the rest of the kids. By Friday a.m. on the way to seminary (which, by the way, I teach now. O Hour, too! Oh boy!), the roads were scary, icy! That same day around 4:00 p.m. the roads were dry. (Unless there was run off from the snow. I'm not kidding it's warm here). Needless, to say the sun had been shining all day. The Colorado Rockies have been absolutely breathtaking in their glory. Only in Colorado. I don't think I would ever want to live anywhere else but Colorado. Especially on a day like today!

Kiersten and a bunch of her friends went to Chipotle tonight for their free Burrito if they dressed up like one and now are watching scary movies. Wow, Halloween has done a 90 degree on us this year. We do have a pumpkin...but he is not a Jack-O-Lantern yet and probably won't be this year, but he will work perfect for our traditional Halloween dinner in a pumpkin that got bumped to Sunday this year! Thanks a lot Chipotle!!

Kiersten did dress up w/ some of her friends for the annual Halloween Trunk-or Treat this year. They were....well, you'll have to wait and see when I post pics because I can't remember what they were called. Maybe Power Rangers??? Yes!!!! That's it!

Where are my sweet little granddaughters??? I am missing them this Halloween. I am patiently waiting for pictures. Please don't be too tired to post tonight Kelly!

Goodnight Halloween!

Well it is a beautiful Fall day in Colorado today and I just had to peek at my cute little 'Blog' that I have no clue what do with! I still don't know what to post, or how to post pictures or connections to other blogs that I thoroughly enjoy, but moving on for the time being until I find the time to figure all of that out, I am reminded of my goal and the reason I started this blog in the first place and that is to journal. So...journal I will (blog is probably the more modern term).



The last week has been a fun and unusually eventful for David and I. Sad...but true. None the less, it was fun and worthy of a 'blog entry'. Our 17th anniversry was Oct. 2nd and Russell had given us a gift certificate to a darling bed and breakfast here in Denver ...so to celebrate we finally used it!



We had a fabulous dinner at a wonderful restaurant called "Duo" in downtown Denver.



In addition, David had gotten ticket for us to go see "Wicked" on Opening Day! And...what an opening. We loved it!!! Now i just want to take all of my children to see it. All in due time, I'm sure. I had to wait how many years...well never mind about that. Wicked was definately the highlight of my week!
