Snow

I looked out the windows of our building today at about 10:00 to see snow flurries. Wow. There is now a dusting of snow in the mountains. From near 80 degree highs this weekend to a high of 48 today. Only in Minnesota Colorado.

Holly and Lilly Weekend

Soccer in a park

Holly and Lilly were in town this weekend. Saturday was concentrated on house hunting. We found a house we both like and are now waiting for the offer on our house to become more solid before we make an offer on this house. We spent a large part of Saturday out and about so that evening we stayed home and played in Beth and Geoff's backyard. We grilled and just took it easy on the deck. Sunday we took another peek at the house we liked and then spent time playing in the neighborhood parks and scoping out the distances to the pool and school.

Badger, badger, badger...

Weekend Update with John Rotach

Friday eve: Rockband at home then karaoke at the Hangar Bar


B36 made out of beer cans

Saturday: House hunting in the morning then mountain biking at Mt. Falcon in the afternoon. That's about as technical as I can handle while climbing 1,500 feet over the course of an hour. Ouch. Great views of Red Rocks park and the city from the top.

Sunday: A flat, windy ride out past the airport. Very nice.

Fall Already?

Holly took the neighborhood to a movie, treats and Elm Creek Park. This tree seems to be getting ready for winter a little early:

1st Day of Kindergarten

Today was Lilly's first day of Kindergarten. She said, "School is awesome, Mom!"

Labor Day Weekend

Holly and Lilly were here in Denver for the long weekend. We drove through neighborhoods, looked at houses, walked to the dog park and farmers' market and went hiking. It was a terrific weekend and I was sorry to see them leave. Here are some pictures from the weekend:
