Labor Day Weekend

We decided to drive up to Colorado for the Labor Day Weekend, also it being my son-in-law's birthday made the decision easier (and we didn't even need a travel note).

We left on Friday @ 4:00 after work, spent the night in Raton, then headed into Erie, Colorado about 9:30am and seeing Melissa's face as we walked into their house was priceless. That was the best part of the whole trip. She had no idea we we're going up for a visit.


We passed the edge of Texas

Zachary helping unload radios and instruments that we took to an air museum in Erie, Spirit of Flight Center, where Melissa lives. Many of you know we have been shutting down West Texas Air Museum, since Terry's father passed away in December, so if you know of anyone interested in buying some planes, antique artifacts, or an airport, just let us know.

Terry overlooking George, an interesting WW11 vet, as he 's signing papers in case IRS needs to see if we really donated the museum items.

After delivering the items to the museum on Saturday we joined in celebrating Andrew's birthday party (barbecue).It was filled with a group of fun people, and once it quieted down that evening Jill & Paul, Melissa & Andrew, Avery & Blake and Terry & I, bowled with Wii.
Please note that Terry and I were the winners, I had to note that!!!

On Sunday we went and had breakfast at MiMi's and here's a Momma and her boys.

After breakfast we went to go watch (with 3D glasses) the movie Ice Age.

Then we went to a Colorado football game. We had a fabulous view, good food and good company to enjoy the game with, eventhough Colorado lost.

Ahh, back in Texas soil.

That was our weekend! Busy and fun with lots of love in between.
