Nana and Pop

It is always great to have Mom and Dad out to visit, but even more special after the Covid separation and isolation. The weather was agreeable for their visit and we filled the time with walks around the block, cards, good food and time together. Unfortunately, Marshall and I were working and the boys at school and we had to deal with cleaning day, but Mom and Dad managed. D-man also had to work a fair bit, but we made the most of the time when he was home. 

We had takeout sushi on Friday night after happy hour on the porch. I went out for doughnuts and coffee on Saturday morning -  a special treat! We took a drive up to the mountains on Saturday and ended up at Gross reservoir where none of us had ever been. The journey there was quite an adventure in the minivan, but we made it. We came back home through Boulder and relaxed in the afternoon - watching basketball and eating dinner on the back patio. Covid has done a good job of reminding us of what is important and helping keep things in perspective.
