When we first moved to Colorado Springs, I expected the winters to be brutal, but the two winters we have spent here were great. Just what winter should be -- lots of pretty snow that melts before it interferes with your plans. Spring, though, has been a different story. Despite the fact that Spring is in its name, Colorado Springs really doesn't seem to understand this most important of seasons. We just have Winter, more Winter, then Summer(ish).
Now that it's almost June, we are getting some glimmers of warm weather around here. I don't want to jinx it and claim that Winter is over, but I've been wearing short sleeves outside for several days. Yesterday, we even turned off our heater. Can you believe it?! It's been fun to introduce Ben to the wonderful world of fresh air:
Yesterday morning, we drove to Palmer Park and took a quick family hike...

CAN NOT believe how big the kid is getting! Love it! Especially LOVE the photo of him out in his kiddie pack. Too cute.
"Delicious & messy & perfect"- love it! A good description of my youngest grandson :)
i love the expressions on his face. it's almost like you can see what he is thinking.
i love colorado summers! it's like 3 months of spring/fall. i am dreading the abilene summers. you can't even walk outside barefooted, you'd fry your feet.
I've been to Colorado several times, always in the summer and I absolutely loved the weather.
While your long winter is finally giving way to spring, our short but beautiful GA spring has already given way to a long and very hot summer. Enjoy your great weather, even if it's short-lived!
is that a high and tight faux hawk on my boy's head? and just look at that lush green lawn. we've cut our heat off, too, at least inside, God turned it on outside, 94 the last 3 days.
