New Years in Colorado

We had a blast in Colorado to celebrate the new year!! We drove 12 hours through the night with partially awake babies to visit Robert, Renee, Reba Grace, Wally and Darrel (Renee's parents) for the first part of the trip. The second part was spent with Colleen, Drew, George and Madeline. Thanks to Elmo and Baby Einstein (and the Lanes for lending us their DVD player), we survived!

As you can see from the pics, RG, G&A picked up where they left off, though they are much busier now. We loved being out in the country at Wally and Darrel's and had beautiful weather, which allowed for our test-driving the Cobra and Matt's flight with Darrel to view elk. We feasted many times, but most especially with Crab Fest, our annual tradition. We had a great relaxing time shopping, hanging out, and laughing!

We spent time at the Denver Children's Museum --fabulous if you are ever in the Denver area--highly recommend it! We went from there to Coll & Drew's and loved loved loved being with them and spending time with M&G. We had a great evening and morning catching up with them and adoring those precious little ones! Also a bonus, got to see their new house which may be remodeled soon. Drew, we made purple pancakes this past Sat in your honor!!
It was wonderful to be with friends whom we consider as family! Love you all!!!
