Memorial Day Weekend!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day holiday! We had a great Memorial Day weekend. We kicked off with a visit from Matt, Laura, and Allie (we missed Claire). It was so great to see them and the Newton family! On Saturday we went to see our friend Theresa dance at the Boulder Creek festival. Afterward, we had some snacks, and William went on a few really fun rides!

Climbing into the bounce house.



To our surprise, William wanted to go on this kid's ferris wheel. We were not sure how he was going to react to it but he loved every minute.









William riding the barrel train!



Choo Choo!





At the fair, there was a root beer stand selling these stainless steel cups with free root beer refills. Between Daddy and William, there was no way we were leaving without one. Here William is enjoying the orange root beer flavor :) Mmm



On Memorial Day, I got to run in my first Bolder Boulder! It is an annual 10k race through town, and one of the most popular and heavily attended 10k races in the country. People come from all over the world to compete. It was a blast...no better way to feel part of this wonderful Colorado community than running the Bolder Boulder!

Mommy's coach :) William said he wanted to do the race with me next year. We have also heard him running around since, saying, "don't give up!" ;)






Afterward, we went down to Pearl St. to watch other runners. It was so fun. William kept asking Daddy to take pictures of him by this dirty truck (the road was closed) and by the street light.





William and his dandelions! He loves to pick these for me and often will bring me one after school or whenever we are outside.



William is doing really great with his potty training, and has now started to go standing up like a real big boy! Love that I have not changed a poopy diaper for over 3 weeks!
