Fall break

The girls were on Fall break from Oct. 5th through 24th. It was crazy long, but a great break for them because the past months have been a whirlwind of buuusy starting school and adjusting to the newness of everything. It's no wonder that they started school so soon- a big break fer sure!
The first weeekend off and we woke up to over 4 inches of snow,
we all looked out the window and were like... "whuuuuut??" 
Melted the next day.

Picture of the girls later in the week at the river.
Uh huh.

The Foster's came to visit on Tuesday. We went to beautiful Broadmoore Hotel/Golden Bee Tavern for Sylvia's birthday and Josh had another something up his sleeve- a surprise for his Mom.

Went to Garden of the Gods...to....go... horseback riding!

Sylvia was like...."whut??"...."whuuuuuutt??" 
She said a zillion prayers, was crazy scared...but Bob tried to ease her tense bones. 
Bob, the horse she got- was the laziest, slowest horse ever. 
Yea, I didn't think that helped though.

It was a perfect clear day.... most of us had fun.

Ok. Here's Warren. He has been talking about going to a "dude ranch" for awhile now. He was pleasantly surprised to get on a horse. His horse was "Hercules" and was HUGE. It was quite a sight to see an almost 80-year old on enormous Hercules. My in-laws were such troopers!!

I had "Winnie"and Josh had fast "Indian" and was the caboose- trying to stay behind pathetic Bob and take video, pictures and make sure everyone was keepin' it together:)

We visited, talked, ate, ate, ate, shopped...all the things you do with family/guests. 
It ended up being a delightful Co. visit for the girlies break.
