Some of our adventures in Colorado

One day while we were in Colorado, we met our friend Barb and her granddaughters at the park to play. It was a fun, shady park and the kids had a great time together. It was nice to catch up with Barb too!

Emma and Elijah had fun making baby Grace laugh.

Taking a snack break with Nana

Another day, Nana took us to a nearby shopping center so that we could ride their little train. Elijah was thrilled, of course!

Riding in the tender with Nana.

How fun!

After the train, we walked over to the fountains to play for a while. The kids were pretty intimidated at first - we don't have a real yard, so they've never even played in a regular sprinkler before. The fountains were very exciting, but they weren't at all sure that they wanted to get close enough to get wet. Elijah eventually got into it and had lots of fun (but still didn't want his face wet) but Molly just stood in the center where there were no fountains (but her feet could get wet) and held my leg and watched.




Afterward, Grandpa took us all to Red Robin for lunch. The kids had never been before, and they thought it was great. They loved the mac & cheese (I can't seem to convince them to order anything else - no matter where we go, if it's on the menu, they get it!) and the balloons, and Nana, Grandpa and I loved our yummy burgers and milkshakes. Happiness all around!

mmmm ... mac n' cheese!

Yum.
