February In South Texas

The weather was so nice this past weekend that we got the urge to go down to South Padre Island for the day.  It was gorgeous...75 degrees and sunny! 

The water was a bit chilly, but my boys didn't seem to care- they jumped right in!  Charlotte was a little more cautious and maintained a "safe" distance from the waves.

Denver Getaway

This past weekend,  Michael and I were able to take a quick jaunt to Denver, CO (sans kids)! Michael went for an orthopaedic implant course and I tagged along for the ride. It was a great chance for both of us to get out of town for a little bit of R and R.  I am always amazed at the natural beauty of Colorado- you can see the Rockies from Denver!  

While I was there, I was able to spend some time with my good friend from junior high, Terri Bethel!  It was great to catch up and see her kids (who I would not have recognized on the street because they have grown soooo much)!  Terri and her husband Matt tried to convince me that Colorado is THE place to live. Although I cannot argue with that logic, south Texas is my home.

Check out the piggies!!

The day has finally arrived...Charlotte's hair is long enough for pigtails!!  However, she doesn't like for me to comment on how unbelievably cute they are.  She says "No, I not cute!"

My extremely talented friend Tyne hosted a fabulous "how to blog" party! Now I can keep my friends and family updated on the latest scoop in the Sander household. Muchas gracias Tyne! However, my computer was not cooperating today, so I had to borrow pictures from Tyne's computer to complete this post. Lucky for me, Tyne had this adorable pic of Charlotte and Audrey from Halloween night!
