The Cupcake Truck

The incline

A project

My sweet friend made me a table top for my sun room table months ago. My girls and I finally got around to doing our table-top mosaic project. We aren't quite finished, but we spent a couple nights watching movies and slowly working on the mosaic.

The garden

I have said for years that I wanted a raised bed garden. The family made it happen this year for Mother's Day. I am totally clueless, but managed to get some tomatoes, strawberries and cucumbers in the ground.

Dane is the builder, the teenager is the planner and cookie and I are the gardeners. It is a fun adventure.

Mommy, can I use your camera for a minute?

So the five year old likes to take photos. She takes them by the dozens every day. When I get my phone or iPad back, it makes me smile to see what cookie thinks is photo-worthy. These are some of my favorites.

Family weekend

If you haven't been to hammonds candy factory, you must go. This family run business has been in Denver for 90 years. Everything is made by hand and the candy is bright and colorful and so delicious. We were able to watch them make lollipops and chocolates on our tour. The tour is complete with free samples and a trip to the "oops" room with broken candies.

The Grizzley Rose is a Denver icon too.. We enjoyed seeing Randy Travis and dancing. It was a super fun night.


The girls enjoyed swimming at the hotel and brunch at the best breakfast in Denver.. Snooze. They specialize in specialty pancakes. We had the cinnamon roll pancake which was to die for. (you should get this one, Steph). It was a fabulous weekend.
