2016 Week 7

Isn't this how we all shop?
One hand on the cart and eating a chocolate donut with the other?
All he needs is a coffee and a cell phone!

As an aside, those mini carts are a NIGHTMARE!
Two year olds run into everything possible.
Ankles, displays, other carts, end caps, all were harmed in the making of this photo.

2016 Week 3

We had the most fun long weekend in Winter Park,
that was capped off with the Broncos amazing win last night.
We watched the game while bowling a few frames, and everyone had a great time.
We skied, and tubed, and swam, and bowled, and ate, and ate, and ate.
This was the first time I was able to ski with the kids and it was so fun.
