Lost Front Teeth and Return from Camp

Today, Ben lost his 2 front teeth!  He was SO excited for 2 reasons:  1)  the Tooth Fairy, and 2) he is becoming a “big boy!”  We had to laugh about that.  He’s quite the kid! In addition, today, Kirstyn came home from girl’s camp!  She had a GREAT time and loved the experience!  She

Visit to the Denver Mint

Today, Angela took Kirstyn, Zach, and Ben to the Denver Mint on a field trip.  They had a great time and learned a lot!  Zach especially likes these kinds of historical/social studies types of trips.  He really eats up the knowledge that can be gained.  🙂 Ben’s favorite part was that he got a penny

Swimming Lessons

Zach and Ben are in swimming lessons now, as normal, love them.  They are just two fish out of water we think.  The recreation center teachers are good and the boys like them.  Zach especially likes going off the diving board.  🙂 They both passed their classes with flying colors and can’t wait to get

Ben in T-Ball!

Ben started t-ball and is SO excited to be playing!  He had his first game today and loved it!  He did quite well considering he’s never played before.  He may just turn into being one of the best hitters on the team.  He sure has an eye for the ball! He has a great set

Happy 18th Birthday Brittany!

Happy BIG 18th Birthday Brittany!  When Brittany woke up this morning, she let us know that she was now an adult and was fully responsible and could do whatever she wanted now.  🙂  Not sure what the life-changing event was between 11:59pm last night and 12:01am this morning that would make such a difference.  We

Our Friend for the Summer

Today we inherited a new friend for the summer.  Brittany’s best friend here, Sierra, just moved (which was VERY sad for Brittany), but she had a pet gecko that she couldn’t take with her.  That said, she decided to give the gecko to the biology teacher at the school when classes start up again.  Brittany
