One Year And One Week Old!

While my sister Angie is visiting me we decided to cruise on over to brothers house in Colorado for the weekend. We had lots of fun and did lots of fun things. On Friday we started the day of at this place called Focus on the family. It was so neat it had rooms of slides and climbing things the walls had paintings of cartoons. The older kids and us adults went down this really tall bumpy slide. The kids would go down it over and over and us adults could only handle the slide once. They also had this fun room for kids under the age of 4 so I took Lulu and her cousins Karlee and Anna and they had fun running and crawling around the room.

Lulu crawling through the tunnel!

Lulu had fun playing with the games on the wall!
Look Lulu caught a fish and now she is checking out her hands to see if they are clean!

Here is Karlee and Anna hanging out!After we finished there we heading on to a park for the kids to cool off in this really neat fountain area. Lulu loved it, I just let her crawl around and play in the water. There was a little lazy river going around the fountain and this huge circle in the middle with water falling from the top of it.

Here Lulu is cruising her way across the mini lazy river.

Don't worry I forgot to pack Lulu's swimsuit although I remembered everything else like her swim diapers, her hat, and her swimsuit cover so Lulu had to wear a onsie but she didn't mind. She loved sitting on the edge and stick her feet in the water here she is clapping, I love her!
Watching the water fall from the fountain!

Chiling in the water!

Here is the full fountain and some of us hanging out and eating some snacks.

Friday night we went out to dinner at this place called the Flying W Ranch, we ate some yummy BBQ food and then they had some singing cowboys put a concert on for us. Before dinner we walked around the ranch and they had a tee pee and little houses for you to walk through that had shops inside of them. It was lots of fun and the kids loved it. I'm sad I didn't any pictures of us at the Flying W Ranch.

While we have been at my brothers house little Lulu has discovered the stairs and she is always wanting to go down them or up them, one time I was in the other room grabbing something and when I came back into the room I couldn't find her anywhere so I ran over to the stairs and this little one was almost to the top and I freaked out, but she was so proud of herself! This is only the second time Lulu has been on stairs, and she thinks she is pretty good at them.

On Saturday we went to the Western Mining Museum and were able to pan for gold the kids and us adults had lots of fun looking for gold. I tried to get everyone in the picture but didn't do a very good job.

Lulu and I looked for gold together and we did a pretty good job. Lulu was a big helper.

Here are the kids!

Before bedtime Lulu had fun playing with this pig she was really good at putting the money in the slot on the top of the pig she sat there putting the coins in over and over again I was very impressed! I love the look on her face, she is so determined to get the coins in there!
