The end of summer is upon us

Beau is finally back in Denver from a 14-month sojourn in DC, so we celebrated his return AND Jody's birthday with a concert at Red Rocks. Unfortunately it was 55 degrees and rained the entire time... but it was fun!
Broncos game! Go Broncos! (Um, they lost. Whatever.)

This past weekend, we headed up to Breckenridge for Oktoberfest. Last year we went to Vail for the festivities and it was gloriously sunny, warm and beautiful; this year, it was chilly, rainy, and briefly snowing. Such is life. These two pooches were making the most of their time outside by finding comfort on a bench.
Waiting for our friends to join us... cheese!
Finally outside, but taking refuge under a tent.
Shae thinks Laina is the best!






Back inside to get warm. Shae brought along her alphabet flashcards to play with, and the boys got in on the action.



Shae is currently obsessed with cheerleaders. Rah rah rah!
