Mother's Day 2010

On Mother's Day, we went to the Royal Gorge with my friend Teresa and her family.

David had a really great time. It was very windy, but warm, so the wind didn't bother us much.

Here we are on the bridge.

I had a really difficult time not running over the speed limit.

I am such an efficient runner, it was hard to hold back.

David makes Mother's Day wonderful!

It was a lovely day!

We had brunch at the Golden Corral.

I lovingly refer to it as the Golden Trough.

I don't really like buffets, but going to one on the busiest restaurant day of the year at least ensures that the food is fresh. We went to brunch for the company- which was fabulous!

Teresa's family is very nice to us, and we feel welcome and loved!

David is a treasure to share!

A couple stopped me outside after brunch to tell me that their elderly mother so enjoyed watching David during her meal, and that he was the highlight of her day!

Yarn!

I haven't posted for a while, so I thought I would share about some stranger generosity I received. On Saturday, my friend Kathy invited David and me to go with her and some friends to the Great Western Alpaca Show. We were taking a break, and David was walking around a little bit. One of the vendors was watching him and commented on how adorable he is. When we got up from our table to continue our adventure, she came up to me and gave me this yarn because she thought it would be wonderful on him! How sweet is that? Now I need to figure out what to make!

David's Birthday Sweater (in Progress)

I still need to put on the button bands, collar, and embroidery, but it is coming along!

I think David wanted to call Daddy and tell him about his sweater!

When I took the sweater off of him to get him ready for bed,

he held it up to his face and cuddled it. It was so cute!

So far, I think it is pretty cute! (I better hurry up!)

2nd Blue Sweater

I realized that I didn't blog David's 2nd sweater I made for him. I love making things for David, and this is the second blue sweater I have made because the first one was too small. I used the same pattern that I used for his Christmas sweater. It is easy and the sweater took me about a week to complete. I can't believe David is almost a year old!

Horsey Rides

One of our clients gave us this horse for David.

I thought he was too little to ride it.

Today my sister Carolyn put him on it,

and he started rocking back and forth on

it all by himself!

He was having a great time!

Just Play'in Around

David loves diggin' around in his toy box.

He has a preference for green. He loves his green ball,

and he will throw it in his box and

then go searching for it.

Got it!

Christmas Trip to PA 2009

My friend Teresa sent presents with us for

David to keep him occupied in the car.

Our trip was so wonderful!

We were in Pennsylvania for two weeks, our first two week vacation. Ever.

David received a lot of presents!

It was so fun that he got to be "spoiled rotten" on

his first Christmas!

There is no doubt he is loved!

We have over 100 pictures from Christmas!

It is so wonderful to have them digital, but very

difficult to pick what to post!

It is easy to see that relation in the Dunlap men!
