It's snowing!!!! 2 feet of snowing!!!

Doesn't this picture remind you of two big ladies having tea or something?
All the snow on our deck!
Look at all of it!!!

A flag in the snow!














IT's snowing!!!! It is beautiful and W-E-T. The snow is very wet and dense this storm which makes the experience all the better! Charley girl absolutely LOVES the snow and wants to be outside all the time. She just runs and runs and runs.
Us girls getting ready to brave the cold!!! I look like I have botox or something on my eyebrows...i was having some technical difficulties. :)
Charley girl with the snowmen we built! Their names are Mrs. and Mr. Jones...how appropriate. :)
As you can tell it is still snowing pretty hard.
It was really cold, but a lot of fun!
We also got to sled down the hill in our backyard! What fun! Our neighbor gave us a toboggan, so we also got to use that too! What fun we had!

Gabe is 18!!!!! When did that happen?

Keaton and Padre!
Well, on March 27th we celebrated Gabriel T's 18th birthday by going to Claim Jumpers and also by getting his ears pierced. Gabe has always had the desire to get his ears pierced, but mom and dad wouldn't let him until he was 18. So, of course on his 18th birthday we went to Claire's and got them pierced.
Gabe getting ready for the big moment!!!
Dad sporting his stylish shades! They then told us we weren't allowed to take any pictures of the merchandise...lol And notice the beautiful face I am making! :)
Gabe being so scared that he needed a teddy bear to hug!!! Just kidding! :D
The time is now upon him!
Cleaning his earrings for the first time! Oh and he will have to do that twice a day for the next 6 to 8 weeks...oh the joy! :)

Gabe got hikers from my parents for his birthday! He was really excited! And we just recently put them to good use! :)

A Daddy-Daughter Hike


The treacherous road up the mountain to get to the hiking spot...:)

This is how charley girl looked the whole drive...except on the way back becuase she was exhausted from running up and down the mountain about 5 times to our one. :)

Arriving at the hiking spot...

Charley Girl waiting patiently to get going

A wierd looking twisted tree at the top of the mountain...it looks like it has been struck by lightening one too many times...:)
Pikes Peak from the top.




The view from the top is always amazing. The wind up there whips you around with a lot of force. The hike is NOT easy. I realized how out of shape I actually was only about 1/4 of the way up the mountain. After awhile I just looked down and followed becca's footsteps. If I did this I didn't have to see how HUGE the mountain that we were climbing was. :) It actually works too! Climbing Mount Herman is definately a hike that I would recommend. Just make sure you are in pretty good shape to climp up and up and up before you go. :D

I got a new camera!!!!!!



Acouple weeks ago I decided that it was about time that I get a camera. I am always either borrowing my mom's or using our old one. I am finding that there is always something that I want to take a picture of. So, I started my research and found this one! It's a Canon SD 1100. So far it is really nice. So now I will have many things to blog about! :)
