We were finally able to fit in a little vacation in August, and headed to Denver (pretty exotic I know!) Linnea talked about it for weeks and on the way there kept pointing out the window and asking "is that our vacation?" Here she is in the hotel room all dressed up and ready for adventure!
Visiting the elephants at the Denver Zoo.
Manning a mission "to outer pace" at the Museum of Nature and Science (her favorite exhibit...I guess it runs in the family!)
Feeding Baby Lila, who was a birthday present and is much loved!
There was a great rooftop pool at the hotel where we all had lots of fun.
Flying with Dad.
And lounging with Mom.
We went to an excellent dinner on Linnea's birthday at Rioja. The food was amazing!!
Linnea's first ice cream cone.
And yes, I know that sugar doesn't actually make kids hyper, but nevertheless this was the aftermath....
Then we got a much too brief but really fun visit from Auntie Laura, who was busy flying around the country for fairy godmotherly duties. Come back soon!

Great pictures - it's hard to settle on favorites, but out of the three series you posted today, we're voting for (in no particular order)the horseback shot, up-in-the-air-in-the-pool, the Pizza Princess, the "no, sugar DOESN'T cause hyperactivity, but ..." image, and Nea at the controls of her paceship. (I might have gone for the cherry-faced Nea with Pippi, too, but was already familiar to us.) Thanks so much - Pip and Ru
Your last post is wonderful! I remember Michael packing his backpack days ahead in anticipation of a vacation trip...so precious! Looks as if Denver was a hit, and you can't complain about the travel time. ;-) I can't wait to see you all, and meet your new little girl! xxxoooGrandma
