Nana and Pop Visit

Mom and Dad decided to make a last minute trip to see us in Denver this weekend. Yeah! They hadn't see the boys since the end of June so it was definitely time for a visit. We had grand plans of getting to a pumpkin patch over the weekend, but the weather had other ideas.

They arrived on Friday in the early afternoon; we took a walk around the neighborhood and they both enjoyed a little nap. After we picked up both the boys from school, we headed to happy hour at The Fresh Fish Company and Marshall met us after work. Mom and I took Drake to the Fall Festival at his school where he enjoyed decorating cookies, playing games, and going through a "spooky" house. Check out Dr. Drake....




Saturday brought a lazy day watching the debacle that was the Nebraska/Iowa State game, a walk in the park for Mom and Dad (with Drake leading the way on his bike), and haircuts for the boys at Sport Clips. We wrapped up the night with a nice dinner and a birthday cake to celebrate the October birthdays of Nana and Pop.

Sunday, of course, went way too quickly. We enjoyed breakfast at New York Deli News - a trip back in time and a nice place to grab a casual breakfast with kids. We played some games in the afternoon and then said good-bye to our visitors. Like Dad said before they left, these visits mean even more than they did in the past. How true that is.







WE LOVE YOU NANA AND POP!
