Some friends of ours moved to NY over the summer. Kaela is one of Adrianna’s best friends and I’ve really enjoyed getting to know Hsing-ay over the last couple of years, too. Adrianna and I have missed them so much. So we were excited to hear that they would be visiting this spring. We were […]

Surprise Visit
Two of Adrianna’s friends biked over to our house after school for a surprise visit. She was still in her pajamas when they showed up! Haha! They actually had texted her to let her know of their plan, but she always forgets to check her messages, so that’s why their visit was a surprise! I […]
Dinner and Seben Music
We invited some friends over for dinner tonight. We had a good time hanging out and they introduced us to Congolese Seben music. It was a lot of fun to watch everyone take turns on the drums and guitars. The littler girls played with play-doh while the older kids (and adults) jammed in the music […]
Swimming
We visited Broomfield Bay today. (Thanks Broomfield Library for the reading program passes!) Bree got brave enough to try the big slides for the first time on her own (thanks to the encouragement of her friend, Greta.) Cate rescued a ladybug from the water and found it a new home in the flower bed. And […]
May Day
Some friends of ours put on a May Day celebration this week. They taught all of the kids some May Day dances and how to make flower crowns. And everyone did the traditional May Pole dance with the ribbons, though with so many little kids participating it looked more tangled than weaved at the end! […]
Back in Town
My sisters and I traveled back to our hometown for the funeral of our childhood friend, Jacob Adamo. As funerals often are, it was a bittersweet time. Nice to see so many people we hadn’t seen in years (or decades), nice to spend time with my sisters, but also so very hard and sad to […]
Grace Reunion
Grace University celebrated its 75th anniversary this year. It also happened to be its final year (sadly), so Greg and I decided that we should definitely make it to the final alumni reunion. The weekend was bittersweet. We are incredibly thankful that we were able to see some of our friends from our time in […]
Rock of Ages
Got to see Rock of Ages at Boulder Dinner Theater today with Kim and Amber J. It was a great show with awesome rock music from the 80s. So many songs I wanted to sing along with! (High Enough, Dead or Alive, Don’t Stop Believin’, I Can’t Fight This Feeling, Any Way You Want It, […]
My Birthday
It was a wonderful day. My girls and I spent the morning catching Pokemon and playing at a local park and then this evening was spent with some dear friends (at School House Kitchen and then a movie.) Greg and I are hoping to continue the celebrating with a date later this week. All in […]
