2 1/2 weeks....part 1

Boy, have I missed blogging, especially with all the great pictures I've gotten over the last few weeks. 
We had an incredible trip to Colorado (as expected) but it's nice to be back home. I miss Colorado TONS and the people there but it felt like home coming back to Waterville (never thought I'd be saying that).  I am surrounded by piles and piles of laundry and Stella and Troy both doing homework and work and I am filled with gratitude for this adventure and this life with the people I love. 
On to the good stuff.....I feel like if I posted all the great pics from the trip it would fill up tons of pages so I'll try and keep it to a minimum....
Love these guys....from left to right : Jim, Leslie, Trevor, Dawn (with Baxter in her lap) Remy, and of course Stella (holding Tiger). Thank you guys for a WONDERFUL evening. 

First day on snow. I met up with Troy in Loveland on our way to Lake George to make our first track of the year with Stella! It was FREEZING but we got some great skiing in and Stella got to train with her coach and team that happen to be there that day as well. Another amazing day!  

Another great part of the day with seeing Jordan (on the right) She was there training with Burke and it gave me a chance to get her some goodies we had for her. She is skiing so strong, I'm excited to see her kicking some major booty on the hill this year!!!!

On to Lake George and our visit with Nana B and Papa B!  What a relaxing time, I really wish we'd had more time to spend there but I'm 100% certain we will be back there for a decent chunk this summer! 

 Stella and one of her favorite doggies (besides Ellie and Teddy) Tilda! 

Stella and her favorite hoarse Hickory, reunited!  

Jolly rancher, Papa B!



Nana B and Stella. I have a feeling Stella is going to be spending some time on the ranch this summer, workin! :)

                                                            Papa B and Stella feeding all the hoarsies!


Stella, Ellie, Tilda and I!

So, there is a peak at 1 1/2 days in Colorado. Lots, lots more to post, in-between laundry, cleaning, cooking and organizing. 

Sending out a HUGE dose of Love and Gratitude.....

Meaning To....

I've been meaning to post pictures of the finished wall at the office for a while now but it seems like every time I remember I'm either not near a computer or something else gets in the way. Well ...here it is, we decided not to do different patio layouts on top, those are going in a different spot but we did put some large slabs on top so we could display our furniture. Now, on to the next 1,000 different projects I have in mind for around here... only that's going to have to wait till tomorrow, the lil one is not feeling well so my mama went and picked her up from school and I'm heading to the doc with her in a few hours to get her checked out. Don't think it's anything major just chest congestion , runny nose but no fever. Nothing a little rest and TLC wont fix! I love the fact that everything is finally starting to turn green. Green makes every thing look better! :)

Ski Team!

A few weeks ago Stella started training with the Eldora Ski Team every Saturday. Now Saturday's can't come soon enough. I get up at 6 and get Stella up at 6:30 and we are out the door by 7. Usually we get up to Eldora around 8:30 after making a stop to get mama coffee and Stella and donut or two! :) By 9am Stella is ripping up the slopes with her coach (Dave) and 5 other little girls her age. She is having such a blast it's hard to believe we didn't do this sooner. I never noticed these signs before and thought it was pretty cool the ski area was showing some love to the local ski programs. Stella proceed to then inform me that they've been there for quite some time. Oops! :) Stella and two of her little ski buddies! Stella ripping up the GS course! At the end of the day which is usually at 3 all the kids have to help tear down the course. Stella is doing such an awesome job that it makes me one proud mama. Much Love!!!

on fire tonight.....
