Jacob Turns SIX!

We can't believe this sweet little guy is six already!  He loves Toy Story, so most of his birthday wishes revolved around those characters.  :)

Including a talking Zurg!  Eek!

Birthday pancakes!


Awesome cake from Aunt Amanda!


The highlight of his birthday was the pinata!  The kids loved when it burst open into a ton of candy!




Maya Turns TEN!

Maya celebrated her tenth birthday (and the end of the school year) with a slumber party.  The girls had a fun time!
Dessert and presents

Breakfast the next morning

Horse Pancakes!

My Mom & Dad were here on her actual birthday, so we celebrated with birthday pancakes before school and then with dinner at Old Chicago's in Gillette after softball.  :)



Maya wanted tickets to see Kelsea Ballerini for her birthday!  She was pretty excited!

Trip to CO

We made a quick trip to Colorado in May to see the my Mom and Dad, watch the Rockies play, and go to a concert at Red Rocks!

I love Jacob's selfies.  :)



We saw Luke Combs in concert at Red Rocks with some great friends!  Super fun night!

Spring & Easter

Jacob was a chicken for his Easter program at school.  :-)

Bunny cake!

Easter Egg Hunt at the Ranch with cousins

Gabi & Maya got their piggies for 4H!  They were so excited!
Maya named hers, "Coconut"  He is hysterical!

Gabi named hers, "Itchy!"  He loves to be scratched all over!

Maya loves horses and got to visit the Equine Therapy Center in Sheridan with her 4H leaders.

More Florida Fun!

On the days were didn't head to a Disney Park, we spent elsewhere in and near Orlando.  One day, we went to Tampa to enjoy some beach time during the day and a Rockies game against the Tampa Bay Rays in the evening!  Super fun to cheer on the Rockies in Florida.

The kids and I hanging in the waves.  I love the ocean!



We sat behind our favorite player, Charlie Blackmon on purpose!  He tipped his hat to Jacob during the game!


We spent a day hanging out at the hotel as well.  Our condo was attached to the Marriott Orlando World Center.  It had some fun slides and swimming pools!


We also spent some a day at the Orlando Science Center.  The kids loved it!

Disney!

We headed to Florida for the week of Spring Break!  It was a blast for all of us!  Our main goal was to spend a day at each of the four Disney Parks - Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, and Hollywood Studios.  I took a zillion pictures, but here are a few of our days at Disney.


These were taken at the huge Lego store at Disney Springs the day we arrived in Orlando.

Teacup giggles!

The kids loved all of the rides...even the roller coasters!  Especially Jacob!

Yum!

One of our favorite things was taking pictures of the pictures taken of us on the roller coasters!

We were at Magic Kingdom from opening until the fireworks!




Epcot was a favorite!  The flowers were beautiful!

We ate dinner in Morocco...with the bellydancers!



Jacob loved the new Toy Story Land!

This is what they thought of standing in line for the Slinky Dog Dash.  It was worth the wait!

Fun dinner with Mickey and his friends!
