The rest of our week in Colorado

After coming back from the Rockies Bryan telecommuted to work while the girls and I enjoyed some fun outings with Grandpa and Grandma. We got a glimpse of what Grandpa has been up to in retirement   Grandma spent a lot of time playing and crafting with the girlsWe took the girls for a short walk and some playground time at Aurora Reservoir. When they saw kids playing on the beach they couldn’t resist joining in. I didn’t have any swimsuits or extra clothes on hand and I complained that we were going to have to put them back in the car soaking wet but my dad promised they’d be dry by the time we walked back the car. He was right! I can’t believe how arid Colorado is compared to Texas. They were truly soaked and after just 10 minutes in the sun they were completely dry.

We spent our last day in Colorado at the zoo with Grandpa and Grandma and Ashley and Matt’s family Andrew, Alice and I all took naps at Ashley’s house while Matt, Bryan and Dean cut branches off a tree in their backyard and Norah and Louis played in the sandbox. You can see a glimpse of the pretty garden boxes Matt built.
