We started our summer vacation with a bang last Saturday! We headed up to Denver to spend five days with some wonderful friends of ours that we have known for many years. Jim and
Benjer were friends and roommates during college, and then Jennifer came into the picture a few years later, around the time Jim and I were engaged.
Benjer is a youth pastor, and they are wonderful parents to one-year-old Bethany, with another bun in the oven! They are getting ready to move to Ogden, UT to be a part of a church there. So we wanted to have a good chunk of time to spend with them before they left. We decided to do some Denver sightseeing, since we don't
usually do that sort of thing when we visit, and we had such a great time!
The Denver Zoo!
High-flying backyard fun!
What a fun little girl
At the petting zoo...Joel did a lot of observing...
More petting zoo
On the
Belleview park train...I think Faith will talk about this for a long time!
And some good playground fun!
We will miss having these dear friends of ours so close by, but we are excited for what God has in store for them and for their new church home in Utah!

Thank you guys again so much for coming up! I really want that train picture and the one of them on the hippo, whenever you get the chance :).
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that you had such a wonderful time. What's next?
ReplyDeleteHa ha! Good stuff. We have some pictures up, too, as of tonight, and I'm not sure in one of them if Bethany is trying to bite Joel or kiss him. :-) Thanks so much for coming up.
