Happenings

Here's what we've been up to lately...


* A spring break trip to Oak Island, NC where I got to see my parents' house that's in the process of being built. I had never been to this part of NC and it was so fun to finally see it in person instead of just imagining it! I absolutely love the island and the little town, Southport, that's nearby.


The house will be finished this summer and I can. not. wait. to hang out on the deck and soak up this view..
 Looking forward to making some wonderful memories here with my family in the years to come :)


* An Easter egg hunt with my kiddos at school..
Man, those kids are crazy for some candy. It was so funny to see them run after the eggs as if their lives depended on it.

And celebrating Easter in Boulder with family and friends..

I just love Easter. Not only because of what it represents, but also because it's the day Paul and I got engaged. This year was extra special because Easter was on April 8th, which is the same date Easter fell on when we got engaged 5 years ago.


* The CSU-P spring football game..
My parents came down from Boulder for the weekend and Paul's parents came up from MO. We had gorgeous weather which made for a perfect day to watch some football. It definitely got me excited for football season..only 4 more months! It was so fun to have our parents here for the weekend. I know I've said this on here before, but I just love that my parents and Paul's parents are such great friends. Paul and I feel so blessed by that.


* Blue Tie Gala for the Pueblo Child Advocacy Center..
This was a fun event that we went to with some of the other coaches that Paul works with. Not only do I love an excuse to dress up, but this event was for a cause very close to my heart-supporting victims of child abuse. I've seen enough from working in the school district this year, to know that child abuse is a very real problem that affects way too many children. Please pray for those affected.


I love seeing the hub all dressed up :)


* Getting ready for the end of the school year (3 more weeks!) and Pre-K graduation. I can't believe we only have 3 weeks left. Tami and I have been working on the kids' portfolios and the slide show for graduation. I'm so excited for summer, but truth be told, I'm really gonna miss these kiddos.. 


Well, that about sums it up. It's been a great Spring!
