Denver Pumpkin Patch

Pumpkins are expensive in the LOE.  So we drove to Denver and found a reasonably priced pumpkin patch right next to a Jellystone Camping Resort.  Look who else was there!

It's G, Aunt J, Aunt K, Uncle B, and Heavy D!  They also attended this wondrous fall fest.  There was cow-roping...

A hay maze...

The maze ended in a slide...

There was even huger slides, too...Look at G go!

We got to feed goats...

Ride horses...

And pick out pumpkins.  Whoops! Heavy D fell off his chair!

We did not see the great pumpkin.  Despite this patch's sincerity.  Next post will be the rest of the Denver Trip.

M the Brownie

Hola!  I, M, became a Brownie through a marvelous bridging ceremony...Here I am with my Brownie troop after we have all transitioned from mere Daisies.

We marched in the parade and passed out candy to all the good little girls and boys...

Hey look!  There's one!

This little boy is very happy about the balls he received!

The Brownie troop visited Los Ranchos de Golodrinas.  I got to pet a llama...

My brother, JC, got to make some tortillas...

I got to make some grape juice with my bare feet...It was cold

Then I got to drink it...it seemed like a good idea at the time...

It is fun being a Brownie so far...

Happy Birthday M!

Oh boy!  M is seven years old.  We tried to make it memorable.  We took her down to the ABQ and saw some balloons...

We visited Charles Edward Cheese...

We ate at the grape restaurant (Olive Garden)...

I received a few presents...

A pizza for dinner....I wonder why SM is sad?

I guess it's because she needs a pony tail now...

Thank you for the presents.  I had a great birthday...

Colorado C's Visit. Experience the High Life.

Look who it is!  Heavy D brought his parents to visit us in the LOE.

We visited Bandelier.  Uncle B seemed to be unaware that he was hogging the binoculars.

Heavy D and SM desired a nap so they were sent home with my dimwitted dad.  The rest stayed and climbed into the caves...

And stood on rocks...

We went to Santa Fe where Uncle B got to stand in front of a statue bearing his name...

We all did the labyrinth in front of the cathedral.  We did not see David Bowie, though.

And we finished off the weekend with ice cream...

Danke Schon for the visit Colorado Cs.
