Visit from Grandma and Grandpa




Last weekend it poured poured poured rain all day on Saturday...just in time for Grandma and Grandpa's visit to Denver while on the way to Denver to visit the girl's newest cousin Faith. Since it was pretty cold and wet outside we decided to check out the Denver Aquarium....along with the rest of the people that live in Denver. I didn't think that Olivia would get much out of it, but she had a good time, and loved the tanks featuring bright ocean life. Here she is checking out some...not sure what these things are but apparently 5 month olds love them.

Grandpa bought some of the most expensive sardines for Annie to feed to the rays. She wasn't afraid to hold the fish, but when ever a ray would swim by she would pull her hand out of the water. It was fun to watch and I think this photo tells the whole story!

On Sunday, the rain settled down somewhat so we went to check out the Colorado Railroad Museum...and then to Golden for some pizza. Our waiter was possibly from Italy, and offered us appetizers for dessert. The pizza was great and I highly recommend Tony Rigatoni's...so delicious that Annie almost cleaned her whole plate. After lunch we wandered down the street to an art fair, complete with free rides on a little train with a crazy driver who weaved around the streets narrowly missing parked cars and pedestrians. We also took a free ride on a horse drawn carriage. Here is Annie and Grandma talking things over with Doc, the horse.
