Summer Days

We had a lovely day last week and
went hiking along the Wissahickon.

What are they looking at?
 

This snake feasting on a frog! So gross...
 

 

 

 

 

 

Trip: Wrap Up

We had a lovely visit with Grandma Kay and saw the big sky of her part of Colorado.
 

 

Before heading back to Philly, Grandma and Grandpa treated
us to watch the Rockies play the Phillies.

 

 

July 4

July 4 the party was over and the immediate family was left.
We had a fabulous time playing in the sprinkler, enjoying yummy grilled food and sparklers
and ending the day watching fireworks over the city of Denver.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Party: Round 2

Saturday my parents hosted a mini reception and it was lovely.
We had a fabulous time catching up with friends and cousins,
enjoying the lovely yard and lots of laughing.
 

 

 

 

 

The Party

We all descended on my parents to celebrate this couple, who
quietly were married in March.
We had a lovely evening catching up, playing games,
dancing and lots and lots of laughing.
 

 

 

 

 

This two wowed the crowd with their
dance moves and lip sync ability.

 

 

Flattop Mountain

Every year we do that one killer hike that pushes us
(and the kids tell us how miserable this is and how
their death is imminent).
This year was no exception.
It was HARD.  It was 5 miles up and with a gain of several thousand feet.
(The top is 13,000 ft.)




But the views are AMAZING.
The teenager below was having none of it.

 

Yes, that's SNOW ahead.

Machen.


I love this pic of blue and white...

 

 

We saw a bunch of marmots, including this family.

 

Finally THE TOP!



The inevitable hike down.
Tough view.
