Coping Mechanisms

Even though Sam is in medical school, we find precious time to have fun around here. A little proof in pictures never hurt anyone . . .

Denver Circus: (Good job PETA protestors. I felt bad for the tigers all caged up)

(I've done a bad job at taking pictures of Sam and I instead of just what we are experiencing. So we tried to take one at the circus . . . in the dark. . . with a flash. Mistake.)


Free Day at Denver Botanical Gardens with med school wives: (um, wives not pictured . . . sorry)


Pumpkin patch with Ben & Dena + the girls:





Girls nights with the med wives. (I made these smore treats when I hosted). Thank You Pinterest.

Hikes with Dena + the girls while Ben & Sam mountain bike.





Taking full advantage of having Blue Bell in our local grocery stores.


Military affairs:

Coping with missing everyone not in denver by sending little leaf hearts.


One of my favorite things each week--Sunday dinner with Ben & Dena. Last week we went on a walk and played frisbee in a big grassy area. I would recommend catching frisbees rather than blocking them with your hand . . .



Dena re-created Applebee's 'blondie' dessert. Oh my gosh. Way too good.


I love Sam's soccer games each week. Even when he has to wear a 10 year old's jersey.


We are loving it here. One month until we see our families!
