After departing South Dakota, we drove (and drove and drove) to Colorado. We arrived at my good friend Kim and her family's house in the wee hours of the morning. The girls did a great job, and all went smoothly except for running into a lovely hail storm at about 1am one hour outside of Denver. That storm slowed us down, woke and spooked the girls, and led us to get a new back windshield a few mornings later. In spite of that excitement, the girls were up and ready to play first thing the next morning, so we headed out to watch Jacob and Conner's soccer games. Annie was quite entertained, and wanted to know when she'd get to cross the white lane to play.

After nap time, we all headed outside for water play.

Siri was quite impressed with Conner's silly faces
and Emma and Annie were quite enthralled with each other
For Father's Day, we went for a hike at a nearby creek.
Then, we headed back for a great Father's Day dinner together...
This was the first big chunk of time the kids had got to spend together, and it was wonderful to watch them connect and play together.
With a seven, four, three, two and one year old in the house, the parents were kept busy and entertained. It would have had been good to have longer to spend there, but after a great weekend together, it was time to get in the car and head to Arizona.
