Lakewood
Finally, I have some time to update about our Colorado trip at the beginning of the month. Apparently, it has been a while since we were back because I had forgotten a few of the state's awesome trademarks that I love:
-clear sky with not a single cloud
-the dry air
-of course the Mountains
-tons of outdoors activities
Since my parents only get to see Ethan once a year, they were so excited to spend time with him and just be grandparents. They also knew we needed time away as a couple and gave us many opportunities to go on dates. Which we of course took advantage of =0) One of the days, we made our ways up to the mountains to go shopping and ate at my favorite pizza place, Beau Jo's. It was awesome!!! We also went out to dinner and dessert the other nights. Ethan of course had a blast at their house and absolutely LOVED their vegetable garden. It amazingly kept him busy and entertained for quite some time!
Counting airplanes and looking at stars
Labor Day block party at my parents'
A day at the Denver Children's Museum
My little stairmaster going up and down and up and down all the stairs at Red Rock Amphitheater
Our most favorite part of the trip: enjoying the scenic drive and hiking the trails surrounded by aspen trees at Kenosha Pass (elev. 10,000 feet). Ethan absolutely loved it as you can tell by the video.
We had a great time, thanks for everything!

Bracing Myself
First thing first before I forget, last Saturday was Brian's big 3-0 birthday. I threw him a nice little bash and it was great having family and friends here for the special occasion. I guess I'm married to an old man now. But then again, I guess I'm next.
Now onto this post. So every year around this time when the air gets crisp and the leaves start changing color sI get excited because I love Fall. But at the same time, I also get this anxiety because I know what's around the corner. The snow, the cold, the winter apparels and the fact that it's going to to be harder to get out with Ethan. And I absolutely hate being stuck in the house. These are real fears people!!! I am NOT from the midwest and don't think I will ever get used to the midwest winter. Brian laughs about it and tells me to not freak out as I checked with him again when we'll be getting the first snow. God reminded me this week to come to Him so He could calm my anxious heart. In the mean time, I wake up every morning telling myself that it's going to be okay. We've done this 5 times before.

One thing that I absolutely dread thinking about daily: what to cook for dinner. In an ideal world, I would have a personal chef who would make me gourmet meals on demand.

MOPS 2010 - Quantum Queens
MOPS started up again this year with the theme of MOMOLOGY: The art and science of Mothering and tomorrow will be our 2nd meeting. I'm super excited because the women in our group seemed to mesh well together and I hope we can all go deeper! Last year didn't turn out so great which is why I decided to step up and take on some leadership roles. I'm praying that I can be welcoming to the new moms and that they won't feel left out. And may it all be done to the glory of our Lord!
