Winter Catch-up

It has been a long, cold winter and mom has fallen waaaaay behind on blogging again, so I thought that I would post a quick update so that you can see what our girls have been up to while we are waiting for Spring!
Happy Saint Patrick's Day!
 
Riley has been working hard in school and did her first oral report in costume as Sacajawea. She's also been keeping the tooth fairy busy...she has lost her two front teeth and another top tooth too!
Riley joined a Daisy troop and has sold lots of Girl Scout cookies!  We had her Investiture ceremony last week where she got her official pins and had to give her Girl Scout oath.
Her troop is made up of little girls from Excel and I love seeing the friendships that she is forming now that she is in school. 
Piper has been busy being the best middle sister ever! 
She has been doing lots of jumping, climbing, hanging and perfecting her "Cookie Monster" voice.
 
  
Just being sweet and silly...and a little bit ornery too!
And Livvy is continuing to be the World's Happiest Baby
With the cold, she is spending her fair share of time getting bundled up for school and activity runs, but at least she gets to sport cute hats!
One of our favorite things in winter is when the Stock Show comes to town, we definitely got our fill of farm animals.
 
Piper even got her first cowgirl hat this year!


We had a mini mountain vacay and had a great time hanging out with our friends, the Nichols, and playing with our kids in the snow.
 
 



I got to go ice skating with my girls. Piper was exhausted and passed out face down in the sled... 
And Riley was loving every second! Next year, she'll be working on her lutz triple sow cow :)
We had a special mom-daughter date for tea at the Brown Palace with Aunt Phoebe, Gigi and Maddie to celebrate her 18th birthday.
 
 


And I turned 35 and celebrated my birthday and Valentine's with all of my favorite people!
 Not that we haven't been having some fun, but we are officially over the cold and ready for Spring!
