Appreciating Colorado

My parents and Brian came for the weekend. It was very refreshing to have adult conversation and help around the house. Only another short week and Brian will be back with us for good. Anyway, while my parents were here, we decided to go visit the Colorado National Monument. It's only a few miles from our home. It is really spectacular! Here are some photos. (I didn't take them of course!)
