Christmas 2010

 Christmas 2010
 Ahhhhhhh, fire!
 One can never have too many stockings.
 Someone's always gotta be sticking their tongue out!
 Fun with the timer and tripod.
 Holly's gift - not the same as the one she left for Heather and Dale!
 New hat - go mountaineers!
 Cool new bracelet for Heather!
 Love the hats, Warren and Vicki!
Tough guy and his trusty new holster.

Roswell Chile Harvest 2010

 Chile Harvest - 2010
 We had a gigantic chile crop this year.
This is just a small sampling! Jalapeno poppers, pickled hot peppers, pickled jalapenos, stuffed peppers, jalapeno chicken, enchiladas, tacos, oh my!

Landscaping Project 2010

 Yeah!  No more overgrown stinky evergreen bushes!  No more digging out piles of leaves trapped in the bushes - no more scraping up my arms! 
 I have always wanted a spot for pansies.
We LOVE the new atlas cedar tree - looks like a Charlie Brown Christmas Tree!

Bear Lake Trail - Rocky Mountain Park

 Bear Lake - Lunch!
 Self portrait - the old hold the camera in front of your face trick!
 We hiked around this lake as well.
 Can I move here please!
 Chipmunk yoga!
 Don't you think my stripes are sexy?
 Loved the crazy grasses.
 We found this waterfall on our hike - Jason took this picture while standing on a rock in the middle of the river.
 The top of the falls.
 The aspen were simply gorgeous!  So was the hiker!
 I tried to color coordinate my shirt with the forest.
 Nice facebook profile pic!
You gotta love this tree - we did!

Lily Lake - Rocky Mountain National Park - Sept. 2010

 I want to live here!  An old church with a spectacular view - right outside of Rocky Mountain National Park.
 Lily Lake - our first stop inside the park.  We hiked around the lake. 
 We saw two guys scuba diving in the lake - why?  It was tiny, shallow, and a little bit chilly!
 A very happy duck!



These little guys were everywhere!  Chip or Dale?  This guy was munching on a pine cone.

Spudman July 2010

 Spudman July 2010
 Jason is ready for his first Olympic distance triathlon!
 The last island in the river to swim around - don't miss the exit point!
 Getting ready - tires aired up, gatorade on the bike, and in Jason's case, breaks firmly attached!
Let's do it!
 Aaaahhhhh!
After the race - everyone is still standing!
