Pueblo Trip: 2nd Half of Our Vaca

First off, isn't that the cutest little CHUNK you've ever seen?! We got to play with Lexi's little man, Easton. He is so much fun and so squishy and squeezable! Penelope was in love. As you can see from the top right pic, she couldn't keep her hands off him!

Papa took us to the park which was so much fun. All of our snow back home has kept us from the swings, monkey bars and slide for quite awhile now so it was a nice chance we got to spend time outdoors. Uncle Kevin was Penelope's little shadow and she loved having the attention. 

The boys, of course, think their Uncles walk on water. Our little girl sure has the sassy look down, wouldn't you agree??

Auntie Morgan took us for a walk and to the park. Penelope is such a big girl.. she learned how to hold the railing and walk up and down the steps while on this trip!

Penelope wasn't too sure of Nana this trip (she'll get better I promise!!), but sure liked her Papa. She liked organizing the puppy's dog toys!

Basketball and the iPads were our go-to's while at Nana's! Everyone's game improved with all our practicing.. check out Uncle Kevin's awesome slam dunk, the not so different height difference between the boys, my way-over-the-top-excited-face, our boys' sweet cuddle moment and Easton's gorgeous gap teeth!

Troy's party at Nana and Papa's was Circus themed! It turned out awesome and Nana and I were totally pleased with the party decor! I bet you feel like you're in a circus tent, just looking at the living room!

Cousin Alex is getting so stinkin' big! We're so glad he got to celebrate Troy's birthday with us!

Check out my peeps! All grown up! (Joe, 20 : Kevin, 18 : Tera, 25 : Morgan, 22)

Everybody got circus mustaches, but not everyone was willing to take a pic. These were the exceptionally awesome performers who did! Auntie Morgan won 1st PLACE for her amazing-ness!

Troy received tons of awesome new goodies at his birthday! 

Check out the cool sparkler candle that Auntie Morgan found for Troy! Mom tried out her pinterest find with that shnazzy polka dot cake! It was sure yummy!

Thanks to everyone for a great trip!!

Pueblo Trip: 1st Half of Our Vaca

It was so nice to leave all the snow here in Utah behind and head to good old Pueblo where we were able to play outside for most of our stay! Tanner loved breaking out the baseball glove and playing catch with Grandpa Kenny.

A trip to Grandpa Kenny and Grandma Judy's isn't complete without a dip in their swimming pool of a bathtub! This trip included not one, not two, but three little beard-shaving-munchkins! Penelope had so much fun learning out to take care of that 5-clock shadow from her older brothers!

Spending time with Grandpa Kenny

Penelope did not like big-brother-Troy messing with her while she rode on the horse : Troy got to go shopping and picked out a really neat lizard guy : Troy is officially too big for Grandma's horse!

We finally got the chance to visit Uncle Taylor in his new home and meet his big "junkyard" dog (as the boys call big dogs). It was nice to relax and eat good pizza while Teegs and Penelope got to know each other. Penelope wasn't sure about those junkyard kisses!

Swinging : Horseshoes : Time with Grandma

Penelope looked adorable in an old Smurf jacket that was once her Mommy's! Mommy's little girl :)

Legos are always fun to pull out : Check out Tanner's fancy new coat (once owned by his madre) : Nellie helping with Lego clean-up!

Grandma Alice : Grandma Val & Grandpa Manuel

Penelope seeing things from Peanut's point of view!

Thank you Grandma Val and Grandpa Manuel for our cute new stuffed bunnies!

Penelope wasn't too fond of Grandpa Kenny this trip, but we managed to get a picture of Grandpa and Granddaughter together. Check out her shnazzy crocodile shirt (once Mommy's)!

Lovin' the outdoors!

Penelope Jane

Our trip happened to fall during Troy's birthday celebration, so we got to celebrate him turning 4 three times!! Once with Grandpa Larsen and Gramie, here at Grandpa Kenny's and then again at Papa and Nana's. He had the cutest Spongebob cake!

Here's the last of our pictures taken while at Grandpa Kenny's and Grandma Judy's... My dad and I got the chance to go play a little tennis, which was a ton of fun. We've both still got it!

Thanks everyone for making our trip so much fun!
