Weekend with the Family

My Dad, Brother and Step-mom Came to visit this weekend, and we had a pretty good time if I do say so myself.

I took Friday off of work, for many more reasons than just my family was coming to town, but it was a day greatly needed. I woke up around 10 and did some last minute cleanup before they arrived. When they did arrive, around 1, they took me out to lunch and I took them on a tour of the area, where I work and such. It was a good day to just hang out and catch up because they were all tired from the drive down. Friday didn’t turn into much..

Saturday, Dad, Brian and I went for a great bike ride down the Dry Fork Trail. A ~14 mile ride that is mostly down hill (it is always good to have a shuttle to the top.) and ended right at the house.

I think this is called Silver Peak.

It was an awesome ride, but a better return to the house. When we opened the door into the house I was overwhelmed by the scent of fresh cookies being baked in the oven... Mmmm Gingersnaps, my favorite! Man its fun when the parents show up! For Saturday night I had scheduled a bit of a party, both as a way for all my friends from work to see my new house and also for all of my friends to meet my parents. My "Older" ;-) friends showed up right on time at 6:30 (I had told everyone 6, but Durango time is about 30 min slow). The party was great until around 8:30 when they all started to wear down and get tired. The solution, my "younger" friends promptly show up right on time, 8:45 (I had told everyone 6, but Durango time is about 30 min... wait, this doesn’t quite work anymore.) We had a great time chatting and making fun of me (which is what my friends do) until about 11 and everyone filed home. Good times.

Sunday morning, everyone got up and packed up to leave, the weekend was over. Even at three days it goes far too quick.

Oh well, I guess I had better get ready for work. Laters.

Why are there always the feet in your pictures? It is kind of scary and weird if you aks me. I dun really like feet all that much though. So maybe the broblem is me. Generally, the problem is me. I hope you and your feet have many more wonderful adventures that you can take the pictures of.

I guess that depends on who your parents are!

Why are there always the feet in your pictures?

Thanks Kate for the Feet defence! and yes, feet are awesome. I never quite undertand your problem toward feet? Maybe if they were not stuffed in shoes all day they wouldnt be so bad?
