Us near the mountain creak...

Near the same creak...

A distant view of the San Juans

Wild turkies off in the distance

A sunset on the aspens

We got to see dear everyday on our property!

A scenic view of the San Juan Mountains...

A mountain creak near our place

Apparently, dear really, really like aspen leaves...

Our view as we left the village of Crested Butte

Our Last Vacation of the Year!


The Columbine is Colorado's state flower

This poor yearling (it's young anyways) got himself stuck up a tree in the middle of
a local small village, Crested Butte

The infamous Rioa Grande Gorge

The ghost town of Dawson. Like other ghost towns in Colorado, it was a mining town. The town officially closed in 1950. It's population reached to 9,000. All that is left is the wagon tribute and the huge cemetary.

Ladybug's swarm the Capluin Volcano site.

I can't believe it has been since May since I posted! I don't have any kids to do any updates on... the pets are the same: eat, sleep, play, get into the trash... oh, Kaisee has found a way out of the backyard... need to fix the small fence somehow... Theron received a second calling, on top of his current calling which just got added upon. He is still the asst. ward clerk, but instead of being limited to membership, he now does membership and financial. He is also my asst. primary teacher. Apparently six five-year olds is a lot to handle... they are a chatty group! Both of our jobs are going well. Theron had put in for a supervisor for the BDO position... still waiting on that.

We recently got back from spending a week in Colorado with the in-laws. It was nice and relaxing. We also stopped on the way home and visited a good friend of ours. I wished we could have had more time to spend with her. It had been two years since she seen us. She said that we looked good and she barely recognized Theron. She apologized for staring at us! lol, she said we looked so different. We are home now, and our next break won't be until the holidays... what a drag! It's like being in school and waiting for the next holiday to end the monotonous days...

Enjoy the pics!
