Meredith and Tim's Welcome Party Sept. 26, 2018










After the rehearsal at RMBL we all gathered at the old Train Depot for pizza, salad, beer, and wine.  It was a great venue and a nice get together.  Arn played and sang a special song and I'll try to get a copy of it to post.

Lilah Update



 I sure have been lax in posting pics but Lilah is sure growing up fast.  This week just before her 1st birthday she started walking!

Meredith's Bachelorette Adventure Sept. 2018








On a Friday before the wedding we went to Buena Vista for a night of fun.  A couple of the girls went on a mountain bike ride.  We met at the local brewery and then headed to our vrbo for thenight.  we rented a house on a 300 acre property.  A couple of us even got a tour of the property.  After a hike we enjoyed a delicious Greek dinner and then made a big fire in the pit and made smores.  Of course we enjoyed a few cocktails too. It was fun spending time with Val, Lilah, Julie, Heidi, Allysa, Mere, and me!

Tyler's tshirt quilt.............birthday too.


Tyler also had a birthday the end of August and turned 32!!!  I have been working on this T shirt quilt for years (he graduated high school in 2005).  I finally finished it.  I used a quilt as you go method which took me a little longer.  I think he really liked it!
The tshirts range from 3rd grade to college with most of them being elementary school sports and high school.

Dorothy Ann is 93!

Gma turned 93 on Aug. 25th..............Arn and I had scheduled a trail ride on the 24th at Roxborough State Park in a golf cart but unfortunately it was cancelled due to mechanical problems.  We drove around thru the park and look at all of the views and had lunch in Denver.  Stan and Bea took her out to dinner for her birthday and on Sunday all of the kids came down for brunch at our house.  I think it was an exhausting weekend for her but she enjoyed all of the attention.




Lilah surprised Gma with a birthday visit!








We had a fresh peach pie and a baked peach pie instead of cake.







Patio update



It's almost finished.  We're just waiting for the fire bowl to arrive next week.  Big D Landscaping did a great job and finished in 5 days just like they said.  We also got a little grass seed planted to the right of the firepit patio. We need to do some stucco repair work and put some furniture on the patio as soon as the polymer sand hardens.

Tubing Wedding Shower Aug. 4, 2018








































































Valerie and I planned a 'tubing' shower for Meredith and Tim.  It turned out well and was very fun.  The Banks family came with Aunt B and they brought Gma.  Tyler, Lauren, Eric, Val, and Lilah came too.  Mere's coworkers, Allysa and Matt came, and a friend from ultrasound school (Katie and Dave).  Tubing was exciting!  I am not a relaxed tuber.  We had Snarf's delivered, snacks, brownies, chocolate chip bars, Popsicles, and lots of fun.  Sucess!
