Mama Bear's update from Longmont, CO

I'm freezing here in Colorado, but the sun has shined most days and we had only an inch of snow last night.

Derek's really getting good on his drum set.  He's in the school band, takes private lessons and was really raising the roof the other night for Grandma Gloria's private recital.

On Thursday morning I went with Katie to her  Boot Camp.  She really puts those ladies through some tough all around exercises for one hour.  I tried about two minutes of the warm up and then "got outta there" and  spent the time walking round and round inside  the building (too cold outside).  She does the classes twice a week and none have died yet.

When the family got out the WII, Justin did pretty good on the drums, Derek was on the guitar and Katelyn and G Gloria took turns belting out the vocals.  It was fun but I've got a long way to go to get a good score.

Yesterday's schedule was soooooooo full of activities that Katie did Katelyn's hair while we were rooting for Brayden at his basketball game.  He had a great game and showed promise for a career in the hoops field - or at least getting a scholarship.  Unfortunately, they lost by a few points.

It was Katelyn's special day when her dad baptized her.  Craig and Carolyn drove in on Friday night at attend the happy occasion.  Katie made lost of yummy desserts for all the friends who came.

Later we all went to see the LEGO Movie and out for dinner.   I choose to eat movie snacks for my dinner.

It's Justin's  turn to cook dinner tonight and of course it's baking Sunday so he's doing an apple pie so that I can have some (without the the crust of course).  I'll be flying back to G.V. tomorrow where the beautiful warm weather awaits.
