Dinner at the Olsen's


Saturday night we enjoyed being with our friends the Olsens and McStraws. I love and appreciate these two women. They were great Young Women leaders and I appreciate their example and all they did for me.

Denver Museum of Natural History




It was fun to go as a family to the museum, I haven't been there since elementary school.

Casa Bonita


After the cemetary we went and had dinner at Casa Bonita a Colorado must. Which is funny becauase the only good thing on the menu is the cheese enchiladas and sopapillas. But the atmosphere and entertainment is great

Moms Grave


After leaving Kansas we drove into Denver stopped at Safeway each picked out a flower and took it to my moms grave. It had been a while since doing this and it was very special to me to take Milly there. Brett picked out a Lily because at our first house we planted Lily's in our yard for Mothers day, planting flowers was always something my dad did for my mom. I picked a red carnation because red was my mothers favorite color and she loved carnations. Milly picked (okay not really) a Sunflower because she brightens everyone's day!!!

Haunted House


I am going to miss all the landmarks we would drive by on our way to the farm, like this house, Phillipsburg, I loved the old Kansas sign that had a huge sunflower, and even the cow factory gosh the car stinks for an hour after driving past that.

The man ran up to wave Hello!


Some of my favorite things about Arnold were....
that he would always name pigs after us girls
By Golly
And refering to the picture above, every time we drove by this hill on the way into Washington he would say.."Look that man ran up the hill to wave hello" Soory the picture is not great but its a wooden man decoration (not sure really what to call it) waving.
