Vacation

We went to Denver for Joshs vacation this last week to visit our old neighbors Monica, Barrett and Ryne. I of course didn't take my camera out till most of the week was over... but this is some of what we did while we were there....

Thanks Frains for all you did for us we really appreciate it.

We went to the Denver Zoo which was really a great zoo. It was cool out, the animals were all out playing and they even had a few babies as well.

Posing with the lizard.

Bear and Daddy try to be taller then the polar bear.... need a few more inches to make it!!

and comparing paw size.

The lions were out and very close... pretty cool
checking out the giraffes, they even had two little babies.

cheese face!

Ryne and Monica check out the tiger that was walking right by the window

waiting in line for the carousel ride
Ryne was a pro and wanted no help at all from mom! He loved it.

Bear rides with daddy.... and cries some more. We went on a train ride as well and she cried most of the time... no pics of that i was to busy trying to keep her from climbing out of the car!

We went to a farm/pumpkin patch to pick our own pumpkins. Monicas nephews came along to add to the fun. It was pretty cool, they had fields and fields of pumpkins, then some animals, bouncy houses and a little hay bale maze for the kids.

Max, Monica Manning and Ryne hunting for the "perfect" Halloween pumpkin! The boys had a great time.

Bear and daddy look for a pumpkin... bear was a crying mess. I think the vines were scratching and she cried the whole time, big surprise i know! fun!

Hanging around the house. Ryne and Bear having a snack and relaxing while they watch a little

I forgot to add these with the zoo pics.
