Saturday Night At The Races.

Saturday night, July 18, we went to the races to watch Jodi, Sheri, Ren and Scott race. We had tons of fun, and Ashley, Amanda, David and Dalton won prizes (with Sheri's help) for dancing the YMCA.

Not What We Had Planned, But Plan B Was Fun.

Sunday July 19, 2009, we were suppose to go up to the mountains for a picnic, but it was raining and hailing up in the mountains, so we stayed at Grandma & Grandpa's house and had a picnic in the living room, and played bocce in the yard. It was really fun, and all the kids could play it from the youngest to the oldest.





Taking A Break

We stopped on Cochetopa Pass for a break and took this picture.

Back Over the River and Through The Woods

One of our favorite things to do on the way home from Colorado is to stop at the park in Montrose and feed the ducks and geese.





Ashley found a special feather.









July 4th--Let Freedom Ring

Forgive me for a personal aside, but I have lived my life a free man, and most of that life I have been oblivious to the price that has been paid for me. Now, I pray the God of Heaven that He will open the eyes of my children, that they may hold fast to those freedoms which are slipping away. I pray that every person will make this Declaration of Independence anew, that in their own hearts they will declare their independence from every form of tyranny and oppression under the sun, for as it has once been said, when freedom is lost, only blood will buy it back.
Thoughts from Glenn Rawson back in July of 1998
