Egg Huntin'


Niwot High School hosts an egg hunt every year. We went last year and it might have to be a tradition now. The boys love it and they both got a basket full of goodies!

The boys love animals and living near so many farms we get to see a lot of neat animals. Charlie started singing Baa Baa Black Sheep and got a group of people to sing a long with him!

Charlie LOVED the little chicks and found one in particular that he wanted to bring home. Poor little chick....



Daisy was fixated on a bird across the street. Charlie took the opportunity to inspect her. He was lifting her ears and touching her face and talking to her- she just let him and never took her eyes off the bird! Then he put his arm around her and just stood next to her and rubbed her back. Charlie really loves her and is in charge of feeding her dinner every night as his 'chore'. Daisy is about 30# now and should fill out a bit more but is basically about as big as she'll get.

I found some stamps and a couple stamp pads on sale at Michael's. WHAT A MESS!! I'm just glad I got the washable stuff.
































Just a few more fun ones.

March 20th, 2010



We had a BIG snow dump yesterday- the first day of Spring! But today it was beautiful. We had planned on hiking if the weather was good but since it was so snowy we decided to bundle up and take a snow walk over at Coot Lake. There is a protected area on the west side of the lake where Bald Eagles nest, so Charlie carried his binoculars with him so he could try to see them- no luck this time, but we'll be sure to check all Spring and Summer.

A beautiful day at the lake!
