Sky Sox Baseball

The Colorado Springs Sky Sox Baseball game was so much fun! Our first trip to a Minor League Baseball game and my only thought was why haven't we done this sooner. I am not one to watch any kind of sports on TV, but going to a game is a real treat. We sat in the lower level between 3rd and home base. Hayden danced to every song and entertained the whole section with his stellar moves. We cheered for the Sky Sox as loud as possible.
Salt Lake Bees beat Sky Sox 7-4.

SkateCity

We went to SkateCity this weekend. This was Ian's first time on skates. They both had a great time.

Cheyenne Mountain Zoo

We took the boys to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs. This is a mountain zoo and it has some steep hills. The zoo has an elevation of 6,800 ft and you hike up approximately 120 feet from the parking lot to the Asian Highlands (same height as a 10-story building). The new Rocky Mountain Wild Exhibit was great!
The boys love feeding the giraffes.
The little train was fun!
Here is the view from the top of the mountain.
Pony Rides
Lots of little chipmunks followed us around waiting for food.

First Day of 1st Grade

Today is Hayden's first day of 1st grade. We surpised him with a new Star Wars backpack. It is hard to believe that he is already in 1st grade. Where does the time go? He was so excited this morning that he got out of bed at 6:30am ready to go. He even brushed his teeth with his backpack on. I wish I took a picture of that. I was able to get a couple of quick pictures before school started.

First Day of Pre-K

Today is Ian's first day of Pre-K. He is going to the same school as last year. And we requested the same teachers too. Ian was so excited to start back at school.
