A Superior Weekend

This week we took Friday Fun Day to Colorado.  We dutifully took our camera and used it, but it seems like we mostly took pictures of Zach and Austin.  Friday morning we spent a little time riding "bikes" and scooters.

Zach was a flash on his scooter

Calvin set a good example by wearing his helmet

Austin still didn't want to wear his

After riding we went to a creek near their house to throw rocks and sticks in the water.  I just love parents that think rock and stick throwing is important enough for regular outings!

Zach gets his picture taken a lot, he was more interested in showing of his stick here.

I think Austin's favorite part was snack time.

Zach had a soccer game Saturday morning.  He and Austin were both recovering from a serious cold, but Zach was a gung-ho soccer player anyway.

Austin's favorite toy while we were there was a bicycle pump.  He loved it!

We had wonderful weather, Colorado was absolutely gorgeous and we enjoyed two picnics in Butch and Emily's beautiful backyard.  They even managed to plant their garden while we were there.  What fun it is to share time with their family.

We also got to see Peter's new apartment in "Uptown."  It looks like a great area.  We had lunch at a little place just a block from his house.  I thought I would take a picture of Peter in his "Uptown" surroundings, but I didn't pay attention to the fact that he was sitting in front of some very bright windows.  He looks a little funny when I adjusted the shadows, but in real life he still looks normal.

We always plan a little extra time when we fly out of Denver, it sometimes takes a while to get through security and ride the train to the gates.  This time everything went smoothly and we had a little extra time at the airport, but that is OK because Denver is Calvin's favorite airport so he doesn't mind hanging out here.  I don't love the airport with as much enthusiasm as Calvin, but I love to get to visit everyone.  What a fun weekend.
