Settling In just fine!!

Well it's been 4 months since we made the big move to Colorado, and we are all settling in just fine!!
The summer was absolutely gorgeous...even though apparently is was record heat for Denver, it was nothing for us being from the Valley of the sun :)

Our road trip here was fabulous and the girls were awesome!!! We stayed one night on the road and New Mexico!!




We moved to a town north of Denver called Broomfield, it's been a wonderful place we've called home for the past few months. It's not far from the airport or downtown, close to the mountains for skiing and what we love the most is how open it is. It's not a real busy place and you kind of feel like your in the county but you still have a lot of amenities real close by.



We already know all of our neighbors and have daily conversations with them, we never knew any of our neighbors in Phoenix, which was sad.

We had our first little snow fall or dusting as one here would say....but to us it was real snow and it covered our backyard. It was the first time the girls have seen and touched snow and they loved every minute of it.
Ashlee couldn't stop talking about wanting to make a snow angel, because thats what Caleui did. Reagan on the other hand couldn't get that snow in her mouth fast enough, crazy kid!!



The great thing is next week it will be in the 60's and you can bet we will be outside playing!!

Ashlee is in Pre K and absolute loves it!! She attends Cornerstone Christian Academy which is a short 5 minute drive from our house.



Her teacher is always telling us what a wonderful girl she is and how well she listens and participates in class. We are so proud of her!!!

She loves to dress up and twirl around the house...she takes a ballet class once a week at a local dance academy and just loves every minute of it


She turned 4 in July and decided she wanted to get her ears peirced, so we took her to do just that.
She hated every minute of it.....screamed, cried, you name it she did it!! Wow did I feel like mom of the year at that very moment!

Now Reagan.....what can I say!!! She's still stubborn, determined, and crazy as ever!!! She's her own little person with her own little personality...she likes her own space as long as I'm in it :0 I can't get 5 feet from her without her freaking out!! But on the other hand she is the most loving cuddly little girl ever, she will sit on my lap all day if she could.



She talks up a storm and repeats everything you say. She can even hold a little conversation with you!! She is obsessed with strollers and car seats, She will spend all day getting in and out of them trying to buckle herself in. Weird I know, but when I need to get stuff done it really helps.

I take Ray to a mommy and me gymnastics class, and she loves it so much, she is so well behaved in that class, which is shocking because she's not into anything with structure....likes to do things on her terms

We have experienced our first change of seasons, which is beautiful but has a lot of work to go along with that. My hubby spends a lot of time raking and bagging leaves just for the next tree to fall



Well that's about it in a nutshell, we're all doing well and loving Colorado very much!!!
