License to Drive

After a month of summer fun in Florida, Jentry arrived home just in time to celebrate her 14th birthday.

Special birthday bouquet from Zo's Flowers in Milford, NE.

Papa and Onnie stop by with gifts!

Sweet Treat lunch, afternoon at the pool and then a night at the carnival with friends.

This girl has been wanting to drive since she was five and has finally earned her license. Well, Learners School Permit anyway.

And we all get to enjoy the new school car!

2017 Volkswagen Passat

Definitely a birthday to remember!

Commencing Summer

Memorial Weekend at the lake with good friends is the best way to kick-off summer.

And the peonies were right on cue.

School dismissed for summer vacation on May 18th and Jentry, Mason and I immediately headed west. We picked up my parents in Orleans and drove to Pine, CO for my cousin Marissa's wedding. 

1. Overnight in Limon, CO

2. Cabins onsite Mountain View Ranch wedding venue near Pine, CO.

3. Time to celebrate Joshua and Marissa, the new married pair!

4. Breakfast at the Muddy Buck in Evergreen, CO.

5. Lunch and shoe-art craft at Aunt Cindy's while the snow piled up outside. A wintery start to our summer vacation.

6. Sunnyside House VRBO in Arvada, CO. Fantastic accommodations even without power.

7. Denver Museum of Nature and Science

Colorful Colorado did not disappoint and we got to experience all types of weather.
