mom's first visit of 2011!

from last wednesday to monday morning, momma t was in town! we had so much fun - as we always do when she comes to visit!
here are some snapshots from her trip here!


aric + finley bonding time!

time to make homemade cocoa brownies!
such concentration while melting butter!


delicious recipe from bon apetit!



yum!!

what would a momma t visit be without a trip to target?
searching for nighstand lamps! i did end up buying those shades!


out to dinner thursday night at el camino - our new favorite mexican restaurant!

friday morning finley kisses!


dog park!
i pass by this dog park every day on my way to work and have always wanted to go - even though the whole thing is covered in dirt and it's right off 1-70. not the prettiest dog park, but we had a great time taking the girls! they loved it!


this is the dog aric had growing up - it's a german short hair. he wants one sooo bad! they are so cute, but very hyper haha! mom had a hard time taking his picture because they are such fast dogs!


fin found a fox friend!



saturday morning brunch at squeaky bean
saturday morning, me, aric, mom & aunt b ventured to squeaky bean for some yummy brunch!




they couldn't keep a straight face while i was snapping photos of them! haha





time for more cooking!
saturday night, we made "hot and crunchy chicken cones." sounds weird, but wow - this might be one of my all time favorite things to make. find the recipe from food & wine here. above, i'm making the crust for the chicken - incredible! we also made homemade slaw - one of the best slaws i've ever had!


fin thinks she is helping!





momma t + baby becca meet!
on sunday, mom & i went to highlands ranch to have lunch with brittany and baby becca! (we missed james!) so much fun seeing mom meet becca!




so cute!

i could NOT put the camera down at lunch!
these are only like a third of the photos i took of her haha. she's just so dang cute!!





love this! can't believe i'm an auntie!



what a fun visit! come back soon mom!! love you!
