A secret about me: I am a HORRIBLE picture taker. I'm the mom who takes silly pictures all week and then forgets to take them on Easter morning, or before the birthday cake is served. I miss all the climaxes. I have good intentions. Really, I do.
About half-way through our week in Colorado my battery died. I just didn't ever feel like taking the time to go and purchase a new one. My silly camera only takes this expensive battery that does not come in re-chargable form. It's a pain.
I am also the person who always opts not to be in the picture because I am terribly unphotogenic, and then wonders why there are NO pictures of me on our computer. Hmmm.
I am also the person who never thinks to take a family picture.
Durango has the terrific Community Center with an indoor kids water play area. I was unprepared and did not pack bathing suits. I thought about it. Then I thought, where would we swim? So I didn't pack them and of course we needed them. The kids didn't mind though. Noah swam in a swim diaper and basketball shorts and Kayt sported only the swim diaper. I decided buying new suits wasn't worth it, besides those people will never see us again!
Beautiful Downtown. The shades are a new thing for Brad. He's never worn sunglasses before. He found them in our car and decided he would sport them for a while. You like?
chug-a-chug-a-chug-a-chug-a-choo-choo
Noah LOVED the horse statues. He's got a bit of an animal phobia. The only animals he likes are those made of steel, bronze or wood. He actually thought they were the horses from the nursery rhyme "giddy up horsey go to town....giddy up horsey all fall down"...or at least thats how he sang it.
Best buddies.

You guys are too cute! I'm terribly about taking pictures of my family too....and it's what I do for a living! Haha...oh well. :)
Cute, cute pictures Ashley! These kids are adorable! Thanks for coming to class this morning, I enjoyed seeing your smile there!
Very cute pics. I love family outings when we can get around to it:-)
Cute pictures!! Looks like such a fun time! We have the same double jogger too. :)
thanks for sharing the pictures. they are too cute! i can't believe brad has gone this long w/o wearing sunglasses!
Too, too fun! I love Noah's smile in all the pictures! It looks like yall had a great time! You'll have to tell me all the hot spots to hit!
I would also like to say that the comment about not being photogenic is SO NOT TRUE! Give that camera to Brad sometimes b/c you are very much photogenic...just let Noah teach you his smile!!!
Oh, and tell Brad that I liked the sunglasses. Sam has that same weird sunglasses phobia. He says something like wearing sunglasses automatically makes you look like your trying to be "mr. tough-man"...weird I know! They need to protect their eyes though, so brad, I say keep wearing them!
Thanks for sharing the pictures!
It's me again....you have a google side bar on your page...what is that???? Are you going big time on us?
So, tell me about this stroller! It looks like a good one and I'm about tired of ours... is yours very heavy? Where'd you get it? Was it pricey??
:)
I love photography. I'm into it simply because I love to take pictures of the boys. And it's all very interesting and beautiful to me! Your pics are good too! Looks like ya'll had so much fun!
did you come back refreshed?
(Man! It would be so much easier to ask these questions in person!!)
Fun times! I love how Kayt has the same expresison on her face in all the pictures! She's such a cutie pie. Maybe you, Mandy and I should have gotten a CO trip together since we've all gone separate anyway! Next year? Because I might stilll be hefty and you'll probably be pregnant again. We'll want to go somewhere with no swimsuits.
OH, and Noah's smile is priceless!
PRECIOUS!!!!!!!! I miss you guys so much!!!!!! Come visit Abilene anytime..haha
I t looks like ya'll had a fun time! I can't believe you didn't bring their swimsuits! haha! Too funny!
Whitney- I chose your class on purpose :) My first body attack experience had to be with the BEST instructor! I was hoping to say hello after class, but then Kayt had a melt-down and I had to leave. Maybe next time!
Love your pics! Your kids are adorable, and the scenery isn't bad either! We really want to go to Durango sometime.
