What a great visit!

There are many pics from our visit in my web album so check them out when you can...

We picked up my sister Hillary and her son Luke last Thursday. They flew out for a long weekend visit to meet Zachary and play with Avelyn. We spent most of Thursday playing around the house and napping to beat the time change.

Friday morning we headed out to Little Monkey Bizness which is an indoor playground for the 5 and under kids. Avi and Luke had a fun time playing and we went out to lunch afterwards. Time for a nap and after the naps we played outside for a while. Our weather was gorgeous all weekend thankfully! No snow for us - just plenty of sunshine and 60* weather!

Saturday we headed up to the National Western Stock Show that's held every year in Denver. We walked around the convention center, saw a lot of cattle and even saw the cattle getting ready for their big days - they were getting hosed off, blown dry and even having hairspray applied to their hooves and tails to beautify them. After the show it was time for naps and dinner.

Sunday Hillary, Luke, Avi, Zach and I headed to the pool. Zach slept through it but the other kids had fun especially in the family hot tub - gotta love warm water! After swimming we played outside for a while then headed in for naps. After naps was playing around the house and watching a movie while the Steelers game was on.

Monday was a free day at the Denver Zoo and the weather was fantastic. We were there for about 3 hours and saw everything and ate lunch. We headed home and took naps then again watched a movie and hung out playing around the house.

Avi and I dropped Hillary and Luke off at the airport this morning and then I dropped Avi at school and Zach and I have been hanging out today. We had an adventure filled weekend with a new adventure each day! It'll be quiet around here without them and we hope to see them again soon!
