Bolder Boulder 10K

This is my third year running the Bolder Boulder 10K.
Over 50,000 runners gather each year to participate.
The streets are full of bizarre entertainment, slip n slides, sprinklers,
 dancers, cheerleaders, treat stands and so much more. It is a blast!

This is Addison's second year running in the race.
She had so much fun.  She loved running with friends.
They did cartwheels in the race &across the finish line.  SO CUTE.
Cute spectators---waiting at the finish line.
Little one---she wanted to race too!
It's so much fun to run into University of Colorado's Folsom Field.
The stadium is packed with thousands of people.
They close the course at 11:30 and let the professionals run it.
It is incredible to watch them run the same course in under 30 minutes! 
After the pros, there is a lovely Memorial Day program and tribute.
We are so excited for next year!

Signing Choir

Olivia, Ella and Addison had the opportunity to be in a signing choir this year.
It was so exciting for them to learn sign language through such a creative and fun process.
They signed traditional and pop culture songs, performing throughout the Denver Metro.
They worked so hard. Their performances were moving, mesmerizing and beautiful.
Can't wait for next year!

Olivia is 8 years old!

 Happy Birthday Olivia!
Olivia is an angel--an absolute sweetheart.
We love her so much!
Olivia loves to visit the American Girl store on her birthdays.
She was delighted to pick out a new doll.
She picked Molly McIntire--historical character from 1944.
Olivia LOVES her.
She was also very excited to get Marie Grace's 
 matching pajamas--Thanks Grandma!
 Addison and Brad planned a party full of "minute to win it" games.
They planned the games together and Addison decorated. So cute.
We celebrated with 10 of Olivia's darling friends.  It was so much fun.
