There's something exciting about May.  My homeschoolers and I know we're in the home stretch before summer break.  We know that soon our days will be filled with hikes, barbecue, and grandpa's pool.  Maybe with Mother's Day around the corner, I'll get an underwater housing for my camera...

  Things here in Castle Rock start (slowly) changing from brown to green.  We're not quite in full bloom just yet though.  So the kids and I head to the Denver Botanic Gardens at York Street to really get our flower fix.  Here are some fun shots I got from our last trip to the gardens.  These are the moments that get me through the spring snow storm that will inevitably hit once more before summer makes it way to my neck of the woods.
