Dominic's first official ride!

Today Dominic went out front with his two big brothers and came in a few minutes later declaring that
HE CAN RIDE A TWO WHEELER!! 
 He's been trying and then giving up for a couple months now but TODAY... he was victorious!!  Love this kiddo!!  GO DOM!!

Tragedy.

I am not sure where to put this down so I thought this might be a place. I have met few people out here that I feel like I connect well with, but one of the gals I've met that I adore has experienced the loss of her 6 week old. They are out of town and in a hotel and now.. they have lost their little guy to SIDS. I can't imagine how hard this would be. I am helpless at this point because they are in Seatle... I can't help with her kiddos, or offer a shoulder to cry on. All I can do is sit here.. and think about her.. and hope that she is being comforted.
I have serious issues with death. It doesn't discriminate and it makes me mad. Pick on someone who is a bad person and leave my amazing friends ALONE!!

Fun Weekend!

This weekend the weather was GORGEOUS! I was so excited to take the family out for a bike ride on the trails in Fort Collins. We weren't exactly sure what the trails would be like.. but Fort Collins is famous for them so we headed into town and with directions from a friend, we found the trail. It was so much fun! We did a 9 mile bike ride that day. LOVE IT!

After the bike ride we came home and grilled some steaks. Before that the boys were playing in the front yard. I had to get the camera and take pics of Colton. He loves that skateboard!

HI!!!

Okay.. I have really put this blog on the back burner but am realizing that it's SO important that I blog my family life. We moved to Colorado in December and I decided it's probably time to post a few pics! ;o) Here is just a little taste of the house. I'll take pics of the rest and post them throughout the week!
The first is the 1/2 bath downstairs! This is the SMALL dining space! Notice the kitchen bar.
Another view.. trying to piece it all together. You can see where the kitchen and dining area connect.
Kitchen... small but functional.
Front of the house. Notice where D's truck is.

This is D's truck. Our neighbor who lives across the street form us parks his STUPID TRUCK WITH TRAILER RIGHT IN FRONT OF OUR DRIVEWAY!! As shown in the pic. One of these days I'm going to hit his stupid truck trying to back our beast out of the driveway. Our landlord is so OCD that I would probably be better off hitting dumb-a$$' truck then I would ruining the grass of our house trying to avoid the truck behind me!

More pics tomorrowish. Although the weekends are hard.
Life has been pretty good. The boys are adjusting to school.. although Damon has some pretty bad days. His teacher his not his biggest fan. Yeah... we are having a hard time with that. Damon and Jaydin are going to be starting soccer in April and I will probably be coaching their team. Darin is enjoying work (for the most part) and rarely complains about his 30 minute commute. Colton is starting to combine words and loves to eat bananas. He is such a sweet little guy, but is also a little mischievous. Must shut all the bathroom doors!! Dom is just a little ball of spunk. He is excited that he is going to be 5 or 6 or 8 in May. (Don't tell HIM but he will only be 4!) We are looking forward to a beautiful summer in Colorado. We anticipate many hikes/bike rides/ and trips to Estes Park! It is beautiful here!! Love you all!!
