Mom's Visit!

My Mom was here for a week, and we had a great time. She and I spent a lot of one on one time hanging out on the deck, reading, and just catching up. We also ran around a little and had some BBQ's! 

Here are Wes and I hanging out at our first BBQ on the deck!

Mom and I went to Cherry Creek for a torturous shopping trip, but we did stop at the CHerry Cricket for lunch...met some cute dogs and ate the best onion rings in Denver...





A couple of pictures of the yummy food at the Farmer's market at The Orchard.




Mom and I went up to Frisco to see the sites! Here is the little town!

Lunch and wine!

Mom in Town!

A beautiful view from Frisco.


We did a lot of hanging in the back yard. The Marsh fam came over for a BBQ, but for some reason, Missy and I neglected to take pictures...which is very weird for us!

Downtown Idaho Springs. :) AT the base of Mt. Evans (sorta)







The impromptu bus trip downtown for drinks with the girls... Francine managed to fall over 3-4 times... we'll blame it on the altitude, but I'm thinking the wine was a factor!




We had a great time together. Nothing better than having your Mom all to yourself for an entire week. That's just good for your soul. :) I love you Mom!!
