Castle Rock State Park

 It has been such a crazy warm spring we took to the mountains in March to stay in a yurt at Castle Rock State Park.  I have been wanting to go for years and we finally went only to get sick with viral gastroenteritis.  Mack was sick a few days prior but had gotten over the vomiting and only had occasional diarrhea... Well it wasn't too long after we got to camp that Michael was sick and then in the middle of the night I was sick.  Michael prides himself with not vomiting very often.  The last time he did was probably 6 years ago.  What bad luck it had to fall on this weekend.  I guess it means we will be coming back for sure to finish our adventure next year.  All we did was survive the night and come home... what a pity.  

This kid takes a beating

We have had our fair share of goose eggs, bloody noses, and lacerations.  Here is a picture of Mack's recent injury.  He fell and smacked his nose on the ledge of the window at daycare.  Poor guy.

We bought a House

Replaced laminate floor with tile.

Updated laundry with tile floor, paint, and board and batten wainscot.

Updated bathroom with wainscot and tile in-lay, cleaned and sealed the original tile floors, cement counter top, painted vanity, new light and replaced builder grade mirror with recessed medicine cabinet.

Birthday Boy

The Year Mark

Mack has grown so fast.  Where did that year go? I am so glad that I kept a good photo journal of him along the way.  I almost don't remember what he looked like as a baby.  He continues to amaze me with his sweetness, big appetite, and how his cute smile and gestures... they get me every time.
