We went to Denver to visit with some of our closest friends,
The Lincolns, a couple of weeks ago. Our time there was the perfect blend of relaxing at home, exploring the city, eating delicious food, having fun with the kids, and games, games, games! The only thing lacking was sleep. Luckily, the only people to blame for that was ourselves, as the kids slept well in their new environment.
Denver Zoo
Ben wasn't so sure about me. I was determined to win his heart though. I wouldn't say I was successful, but we made progress.
Snacks, the key to all of these childrens' hearts.
Kira loved seeing the animals.
Jamie and I are so close that I feel like I know her kids as if they are my own. Unfortunately, our kids don't have the opportunity to know each other well since too many states separate us. They got along better than I could have dreamt possible. It was the icing on the cake for this trip.
Breakfast buddies
Quinn and Max. Oh these two, I just love them! Their personalities are so different that we weren't sure how they'd do together. They were the cutest little buddies.
Park time!
I just love this little series of photos of the kids together.

Jamie, who happened to start a photography business last summer. As a good friend, I graciously volunteered our family for a photo shoot. Aren't I thoughtful? ;) I just love the photos that Jamie captured of our kids and family. It was a priceless gift. To see a few of our favorites,
go here.
Thanks for an unforgettable weekend, Lincoln family! We can't wait to do it again!
