Christmas Tree Hunt

Liam's first year on the hunt! (and first hike ever) :)

And they're off! See Daddy with Baby on board? Too cute.

What a day for a hike! Made me wonder why we don't do this more often -- minus the bringing-a-Christmas-tree-home part, of course. 

Beautiful, beautiful day! Not to chilly, either. About 50 degrees?

That's the one. See Trent at the base? Yes, he is standing at ground level. And yes, we did have to trim a little off the bottom.

Hat hair!

Cute boys. Check out Liam's 4 chompers!

Brotherly love.

Just to prove I was actually there. :)

Camden found a "stick." I have boys. Did you know?

*insert Home-Improvement-style man grunt here*

Heading back down the mountain.

On our way back home.

Baby's First Rockies Game

Father-Son Outing

One random day after work, Trent got home and said, "Come on, Cam. Let's go downtown and scalp tickets to the Rockies game."  (He is such a cool dad!) So, off they went!

Waiting for the train.

Not bad seats for 20 bucks.

Apparently, we demolished the Marlins that night. What a fun memory for those two!

Harry Potter!

Our pediatrician has hosted parties and premiers for the past two Harry Potter films. This time, we got tickets. They were through a local charity, There With Care, that supports families of children with critical illnesses. We had a blast, and it was all for a good cause, which is even cooler!

Wednesday night, at the advance screening of Harry Potter 7, Part 2:

Moaning Myrtle waited in line with us.

Trent and Melody waiting for the movie to start.

200 of the volunteers arrived on the Knight Bus, complete with shrunken head hanging on the rearview mirror. (*whistles* I'd stop and pick him up fo sho!)

Saturday night, at "The Festival of the Phoenix" at Dr. Jody's house:

Sir Nicholas (aka Nearly Headless Nick) and me having a wee bit o' the bubbly, non-alcoholic of course. ;)

At Hagrid's house, behind the mansion. He had a bunch of icky bugs and tarantulas and stuff, too! 

We are getting old, and are sometimes pretty boring, but we are still in love.

Trent and the flying car.

With the celebrity ambassadors, Devon Murray (Seamus Finnigan in all 7 of the Harry Potter films) and AnnaSophia Robb (star of "Soul Surfer" and "Bridge to Tarabithia," Violet in "Willy Wonka.") Neat people, both of them

June Randomness

Playtime on the blanket wore him out!

Cute brothers.

Cowboy picnic on the front lawn with Mommy "because that's where cowboys eat: outside!"

Little stinker ... literally! Ewwww.

Got to sit in a Tesla Roadster electric supercar on date night. There's a store inside Park Meadows mall.

T worked an event at Red Rocks -- a family movie night. Pretty cool. Maybe next year, we'll all go.

Liam's new favorite game is beating/drumming on/patting everything. Maybe he'll be a drummer, like his uncle Jared. :)

Angels walk among us. Don't believe me? Meet my friend, Emily.

Wild Animals!

Trent took us with him to a work event where there was a carnival that included some wild animals. Camden thought that was pretty cool and wanted to chase, pet, and ride on all of them. He's a little boy through and through!

 

Me? Not too wild about the wild animals.

Cute Daddy and baby Liam, just along for the ride! :)

Park Day with the Lillroses

Kicked off the summer with our girls from across the street, Maria and Sophie.
Love them!

Cam and the Sophster

Baby Liam takes a siesta while we play around.

Maria and Sophie stop for a bite to eat.

Camden and Sophie playing on the slide. So cute.

Watching the world.

"Take a picture of me hugging the tree, Mom!"

Momma and Cam
