March Blizzard

Here is our normal March Blizzard. It's about the second real snow we have had all year. At our house we got about 16 inches. I stayed home with the kids ans stayed nice and warm, Steve on the other hand went to work only to be sent home early. It took him 2 1/2 hours to get home, its usually a 25 minute drive. But he made it safely.

The kids were begging to go play in the snow while it was snowing, I told them to wait till Friday when the sun would be out then they could go play all they wanted, but for Thursday it was a nasty blizzard and nobody needed to be out side.

The kids finally get to play in the snow. They made a 4 foot high cave and use the one side as a sledding hill. And yes those are the neighbor kids wearing just tee shirts, it was a nice day on Saturday after all.

Northglenn Through Trails

On Sunday the family decided to go out on some of the trails around our house. A lot of them start at Webster Lake and split off into different directions. The kids and I have gone down a couple of them but not very far. So on Sunday Steve went with us. We started at out house, went pass Webster Lake and beyond the Rec Center, there is a tunnel that takes you under I-25 (one of the kids favorite parts) and out to the RTD Park and Ride. We went to Huron and 117th and then back to Webster Lake. From there we took a trail that follows I-25 almost to 104th, then we took the trail up to Washington and back home to 117th, grabbed my shoes and then we went over to Albertsons for some shopping for dinner, then back home. Over all it was a 5 1/2 mile ride. Not bad with the kids. Everyone was quite tired, the kids and Steve rode their bikes and I skated to keep up with them. At times I got stuck pushing Sable up the hills on her bike, whew what a work out. If its nice again this weekend we will try out some more trails.

The yellow is where we went, the pink is where I want to go next time. I know the map sucks.

Strange Sable

My daughter has this strange thing she does, its watching movies in Spanish. I know this sounds weird but she really likes it. She laughs at the funny parts and still has wide eyes at other parts, so its like she understands, but she really doesn't. I think it's just because she has seen the movie many times in English so she already knows what is going on. But who knows maybe she'll teach herself Spanish, then we can take her to Mexico for vacation and let her do all the translating.
He He He!

My Strangest Fear

I was tagged by Rosa because I read her blog.

I can't really think of a strange fear but I do have many regular fears. One of them is heights, I hate being up high with the wind blowing I always think I'm going to get blown off what ever I'm on. The next is my kids being kidnapped or my husband in bad car accident. I get very panicky when people are not here on time, I always start to think the worst and start making phone calls or going out to look for them. Maybe I'm a little paranoid. I just like to make sure that everyone is o.k.
