LOST Series Finale

Kadie hosted an awesome LOST Series Finale Party. It started with an amazing letter from the Dharma Initiative informing us of the party and that we would soon have our paperwork from them. Then we received our airline tickets.

Jack's First Hike of 2010

We took Jack to Devil's Backbone in Loveland today for his first official hike of 2010 (and nearly his first hike at all). The look on his face in this photo pretty much sums up his thoughts on the trip overall. (Click image to see larger)
We found a single tree to stop under and take a break. Jack loved the little stream and we let him stomp in it (of course he was extra mad when we had to put him back in the backpack to head back to the car!)
When all was said and done, we had walked a total of 1 hour and
were stopped a total of 45 minutes.

Crazy Hair

One day we got home from a walk with Jack and this is what we found when his hat came off. That baby has some hair!

I'm a winner!


I attended a "CS5 Celebration" for work this afternoon that is hosted by Montage Graphics in Fort Collins (a printer/graphics company). For those that don't know what CS5 is, it's a collection of the latest and greatest applications for designers from Adobe (like Photoshop, etc.). At the event, an Adobe representative actually goes through tons of new features of each program. I've gotten to attend once before (I think for CS3). I thoroughly enjoy this kind of thing and took notes about every detail that I found interesting about the new ways you can do things with this upgrade.

At the end of this *FREE* event they gave away a full version of CS5 to the lucky winner of the drawing and it was ME! If you go to Adobe's website, it costs $1899 and I am thrilled to have it to use at home! (Now we just need them to upgrade soon at work!)

I think this is the most expensive thing I have ever won. I guess it makes not winning the Albertson's Monopoly game a little bit easier...

Swimming Season

It's the start of swimming season and Jack had his first outing to the pool (indoors since it's been snowing in May here in Colorado this year!) Dad pulled his old goggles out and Jack really got a kick out of having them on. (And notice his snacking face while wearing goggles).
