...how we love thee! Even if we never live there again, it will always be one of our favorite places. :) We spent 10 days in the beloved state of Colorado at the end of February, visiting family and friends. Here are a few highlights:
Josh was able to go snowmobiling with several other guys one day. They had a BLAST! And they were very sore. Lots of digging each other out of the powder. So much fun!
The girls and I, on the other hand, didn't get to experience the snow. It never snowed in Eaton while we were there. I was pretty bummed, but there is always next year. We had a bit of a crazy trip as Vivian, Shelby and I all got sick. The final blow was an ear infection for Shelby the night we were supposed to be driving back. We stayed an extra 12 hours to see a doctor and get her some medication - soooo glad we did! And boy was it nice to live in a place where doctors and pharmacies are minutes away. :)
Shelby in her new tutu playing the piano. I am pretty sure she wore the tutu every day.
The Renfroe's youngest daughter is named Vivian, so naturally she was very excited about meeting our Vivian. Pam and Vivian came over after school one day to play with Shelby and hold Vivian. It was fun!
On short notice the adults decided to go to dinner Saturday night (My Dad and Mom, Josh and I, Russel and Zoey, Jesse and Kelly). It was determined that we could enjoy some conversation best without the kiddos. Aislyn and Clarissa watched the little girls and we had a fun night at the Armadillo with Uncle Jerry & Aunt Nancy and Josh & Melissa (my cousin).

We are thrilled that Jesse and Kelly are expecting a BOY in July. It will be so nice to have another nephew in the family, David Isaac Griffin. Nathan is thrilled, I am sure, even though David will be 8 years younger than him. (We missed the Bonus family on our trip!) Jesse & Kelly and Russel & Zoey ~ we had so much fun with you guys! Thanks for spending time with us.
Even though we were sick most of the time, we did have a good trip. Thank you to Grandma and Grandpa for a wonderful place to stay! Thank you for taking care of us while we were sick! Thank you for hosting our friends, planning a tea while I was there, taking Josh snowmobiling, great food and fun, etc! And a HUGE thank you for taking care of us while we were sick - especially Grandma taking care of Shelby. You guys are wonderful and we love you!
