Butterfly Pavillion

We went to the Butterfly Pavilion this morning. I hadn't been in quite awhile and forgot how neat it was. I instantly regretted taking the point & shoot instead of my own camera, when will I ever learn?!

Breakfast!

We all took turns holding Rosie the tarantula, except for Whitney who said, "EWWW!"

Goodies in the gift shop.

Zoo

I didn't do so well taking pics at the zoo when we went on Tuesday afternoon. It was our first 80 degree day of the year and we were there with half of the metro population. I took a few pics while the boys were playing the African drums.

Aunt Whitney is visiting!

Spencer's TV Debut

Well, kinda. Spencer's Tiger Scout Troop led the Pledge of Allegiance at Broomfield's City Council Meeting last night. The meetings are broadcasted on Broomfield's public access tv station and are also available for viewing online. They are on about 1.5 minutes into the broadcast leading the Pledge and then introducing themselves. Click on the pic below to watch the video.

A Funny from Dinner.

Mommy: "Pete and Repeat were in a boat. Pete jumped out. Who was left?"

Boys: "Repeat."

Mommy: "Pete and Repeat were in a boat. Pete jumped out. Who was left?"

Boys: "Repeat."

Mommy: "Pete and Repeat were in a boat. Pete jumped out. Who was left?"

Asher: "MacGyver!"

Spring Might Actually Come Someday

This past Saturday, we finally had some decent weather and we were all itching to get out of the house, so we went and explored a new walking path near Boulder.

A lair for the boys inside a bunch of fallen trees.

Asher giving daddy a ride on his shoulders.

Isaac making me a lil' nervous. Thankfully nothing hissed or jumped out at him.

Isaac's First Pot

Isaac came home from Homeschool Connection last week with this first pottery class project: a pinch pot!

It's solar system themed: the sun.

The moon and stars.

Planets.

A back hole.

Isaac goes by Ike there(his choice, not mom's).
