The Royal Gorge














We dedided to take advantage of a beautiful Sunday afternoon and visit the famous Royal Gorge Bridge and Canyon. The canyon is gorgeous and we took a type of train down into it and walked around. Then we took the sky tram accross the top of the canyon to the other side, and walked back on the bridge. The bridge that crosses over the canyon is famous because it's one the largest/highest suspension bridges in the world. It was pretty scary walking accross the bridge knowing there was nothing underneath holding it up. It was a little wobbely! But John of course loved walking it, feeling so big and proud. We also saw some elk, deer, and buffalo. And yes, John made a "woof" "woof" sound for all of the animals. Can't wait to take him to the zoo this summer. Here are a couple links of some videos from the adventure:

I Baptize you in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit....











Dominic Joseph, welcome to the family of Christ! You're a Christian and follower of the most high King, a child of God. You are one lucky little baby! I'll never forget how close I feel to Jesus when I hold a pure, innocent, precious soul in my arms, like you on your baptism day. May all the days of your life be filled with the special graces you received this day, and may you always walk in the footseps of your creator.

Mr. Smiley

Grandpa Zuniga "Pepaw"

My Grandpa, 97 years old, passed away this month. You are never ready to lose a loved one, even if you spend 100 years with them. But knowing he lived a long beautiful life filled with love, makes it a little easier. It was a joyous time with my family celebrating the life he lived and the saint he is now in heaven.
You're my hero, Pepaw! I hope my boys look up to you as I tell them your stories, and be a generous, faithful, humble man like you.

John Phillip Walks!

We were so excited to see John finally venture off on his own and decide to walk at 13 months! Although, we didn't know we'd get so many laughs with his unique style.  haha
