We spent a week in Colorado visiting friends and family!
We dressed Elliott in his Bronco colors and hopped on the plane!
 |
| He is becoming an expert flyer! |
Elliott hasn’t seen Grandpa and Nonna since he was one week old!
Getting re-acquainted with his cousin Fable
 |
| “Elliott, I’m a princess…here, take my hand!” |
 |
| Who can sit up the straightest? |

Elliott finally got to meet Aunt Amber, Uncle Jeff, …
 |
| He loved bouncing with Uncle Jeff |
…and his cousins Gryffin, Jaxon, and Rowan!
 |
| Fable, Rowan, Gryffin & Jaxon |
 |
| Fable, all tuckered out 🙂 |
 |
| Rowan and Fay…so cute :). They are just 2 months apart! |
 |
| My nieces and I all wore purple the same night 🙂 |
 |
| Uncle Doug and Sweet Fay |
 |
| Elliott in front of Pike’s Peak for the first time! |
Reading bedtime stories with Nonna
Garden of the Gods with Grandpa
Elliott’s first bowling adventure!
 |
| Elliott got a strike the first time he bowled with Daddy! Seriously!! |
 |
| Fable LOVED the wind machine! |
 |
| Have you ever seen a cuter face? I didn’t think so… She is wonderful :). |
Cheyenne Mountain Zoo with Nonna…
and Aunt Melanie and Fable…
the giraffes…
Daddy and the giant bear…
Mommy, and Uncle Doug
 |
| P.S. Post high school, strangers would always ask Doug and me if we were dating. When I saw this picture I just laughed, thinking about that…this could totally be a family portrait :). Elliott and Fable could be brother and sister with those big blue eyes! Ha! |
 |
| Grandpa and Nonna bought Elliott this little hat from the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo…could he possibly be any cuter?? |
 |

FRIENDS…
so grateful for my dear friends from Colorado!
 |
| Sara and Emmy |
 |
| Michele |
 |
| Jill and Kari |
 |
| Charlotte, Noah, Caleb, Quinn, Ava & Elliott |
 |
| Two of the bravest, best mommies that I know! |
Kari and I were pregnancy bonding buddies, in the most unfortunate way. 🙁 Kari takes the cake for the worst pregnancies I’ve ever heard of. I sure did give her a run for her money though with mine :). We were so excited to see each other–not pregnant this time–and for our little buddies to finally meet. They are just 12 days apart!!
Here’s a pic from November when we were both almost 6 months pregnant.
And here are our boys…on the outside :). Yahoo!!!
 |
| You can see they called each other and both planned to wear stripes. |
 |
| And the girls… |
 |
| Brian, double-fisting it 🙂 |
 |
| Bosom buddies 🙂 |
Until next time, Colorado!!
