More CO adventures

Visiting Virginia and Dianne.  Boyd was quite interested in Virginia the person versus Virginia the state.  We loved stopping by.  Boyd had so much fun exploring your many trinkets, sniffing out candy, and figuring out the workings of your chair.  Always great company.

Anne U. White Trail Hike

One of my favorite kid friendly hikes the Anne U. White Trail. Boyd was an amazing hiker.  He basically ran the whole way up.  When I suggested we turn around he said he couldn't because he had to finish his workout. Guess he was doing hills.  He was great and I love the photos from this hike. He was quite the camera ham this time around.
We loved our summer in CO. Boyd kept telling me it was the most beautiful state.  He was right at home. Going to Lyons, CO to stay with Kirk, Chris, CeAnn and Kylee is always like going home to me.  The girls are like my little sisters and Kirk and Chris the most welcoming hosts ever.  We had so many adventures that our 5 week trip and over 400 pictures might require several blog posts.  Many memories and stories were made.  Thank you to the Udovich's for letting us invade your home.
 Mini Golfing in Estes Park. Boyd was planning this outing.  It was perfect for Boyd, he loved the windmill while CeAnn and I struggled getting it up the ramp.
 This sign sums up this mini golf course and the people pictured.

 LOVE!!!!! Hanging out with Emily and Gabe- post Gabe putting Boyd face to face with an Alaskan Grizzly.  Boyd still loves you and talks about it. Thanks for letting us spend a little extra time with you.
 Found these two snoozing post morning run one day. I don't think this was the day that Boyd tried playing with CeAnn's hair and opening her eyelids at 5am thinking it was me, but I could be wrong.

 Making a splash with Kylee.
 Mini golf with Kylee in Boulder.  Watch out for the water hazards here and the purple gorilla.

This is out of order, but Boyd was quite possessive of the excavator.
