To Denver and Back

Having two sons and three grandchildren in Denver is reason enough to visit there periodically, but having a son in difficult straits there makes a visit absolutely imperative. Despite snowy weather and the current adversity, spending time with our loved ones in Denver for spring break was heart-warming. The first night of our journey was spent in the comfortable home of the ever hospitable Julie and Lonnie Baird. The next three nights we snoozed happily in Greg's home.

Neil and Penny invited us over for a delicious dinner of seven layer bean dip, chicken tortilla soup, cornbread, and caramel apple crisp. Yummmo!

Our balloon eggstravaganza hunt featuring over 300 balloons, lovingly inflated and tied for the enjoyment of Tori, Juli, and Christian.

Greg was the perfect host, and we're looking forward to going back again as soon as possible to give him and his little ones lots of hugs and family support!

Great to see I am not the only handsome Washburn of the group. Those little blond chihuahuas are pretty dang cute, IMO. Nice to know you made it there and back safely. The city of William Shakespeare is smiling at all of these superb family moments! Take care all y'all.

Hugs and kisses
