Just a Random Tuesday

Best way to start a day off from school!

Brendan and Elise are giving Emery the Denver Zoo tour

Love the penguins!

And the praying black bear!

Funny little squirrel monkey

How does Brendan measure up?

And Elise?

And Hayden?

These gorillas are amazing!  Even when they're not slamming against the glass to frighten the guests...

Sleepy tiger yawn...

Love the tigers, too!

Emery's meeting a couple of turtles.

And here's one of our local Komodo dragons.

Sk8 Park

More pics of my favorite sk8r

Doin' the Zoo and Doin' DI

Emery and I had a lovely mama/daughter date at the zoo today.  The giraffes were aDORable!

Emery was aDORable, too!

The tigers were super playful...

...and they are getting so big!

Really thankful that Em and I get to spend this time together...

And here's Brendan's Rising Stars team ~

it's pretty great that I get to spend time with them, too!

Brendan's 'Moore Sculpture' was in the display case at the school, too! 

Yay, Brendan!

(His is the gold one in the middle...)

Love Breakfast

More to be posted about this on another blog later but wanted to include some pics of our Valentine's Day Biscuit Waffles.  These were a BIG hit!

Sweets for my Sweets

Here are the cookies that I baked just before Valentine's Day.  I'll post more details on my Mama blog later.  'Til then...  mmmm!

Jump

Another one of Brendan's jump rope team performances ~ this one at Cherokee Trail High School during half-time of the basketball game against Smoky Hill.  So glad that he was able to be a part of this team!

Brendan's Theater Class

Brendan took a theater class through CYT and (mostly) enjoyed learning some theater and dance.  The experience was complete when his group, "Our Gang", performed the Veggie Tales song 'Hairbrush' at the intermission of Cinderella.  Brendan's the cutie in the green basketball jersey...

He was pretty excited to have Nana come up to see one of the performances.  And he did a great job!
