June in Progress

Summer can be a bit crazy, we have  Mother’s day, Father’s Day, My Birthday, Dad’s Birthday, Steve’s Birthday, Ella’s Birthday and then just a few weeks later THOMAS!  There is also a few sibling Birthday’s in there too!  We love to party!

5280…that’s Denver! I am going to try to blog 5,280 meaningful things with a purpose.  Wow, that’s a lot so maybe I’ll aim low and start with a thought, a moment I want to remember. 

“Enjoy the moment, they are fleeting and fly by in a second”…here is our Father’s Day edition 

So glad for this moment of messy faces and Smiles (and teeth),

a moment of SIBLINGS!

I moment to CELEBRATE FATHERS and eat PIE!

A moment to sit back, have your cake and eat it too!

A moment of true happiness!

Okay, there is 1-5…only 5,275 to go, give or take.

Here's looking at you...

Last night Steve and I got gussied up and went to a 1940's dance.  It was a blast from the past complete with live music, Frank Sinatra, and dancing in an airplane hanger.  Although, if you plan on dancing it helps to know how to swing dance.  At one point in the evening while the band was playing, "Swing, Swing, Swing" we were surrounded by full blown swing dancing.  It was fun.  I felt like I was in a movie even if all I could do was move my feet side to side, lucky for me I had a great partner that made me feel like I was floating.

 I love this hat Steve found!

A New Chapter…

She did it!   Kindergarten Graduation

Ella was so excited to start school last year, and it was me holding back the tears.  We love this sweet girl, full of energy and sunshine. We are so proud of you Gabriella!

Graduation was at the outdoor classroom.

The Superintendent spoke, she normally doesn’t come to K-Graduation. (her niece and nephew are in Ella’s class)

What a beautiful place to go to school.

Daddy made sure we could spot Ella from far away with these sparkle shoes!

Ella with her teacher!

This is Ella standing next to her painted self portrait. The next photo shows her covered in paint

One rad girl on her way to 1st grade!

Singing songs, even in French!
