Time With Family

 So next up was Ft. Collins!  After dropping off the Keppy kids, we headed to Ft. Collins early enough to miss rush hour Friday traffic!  Jill was still at work and Aleah had softball practice but Robby was home and Parker came in not too much later!  And Penny is ALWAYS excited to see us!

After dinner that evening, Jill and I decided to go out by the fire pit and enjoy a glass of wine - so relaxing!

Saturday morning I suggested we stop and get coffee ( and hot chocolate for Jill) and head to the Sculpture Park in Loveland to walk around - it was a beautiful day and I always enjoy walking around!

Parker didn't have any activities that weekend so I just took a picture of him in his room gaming!

Late morning we packed a lunch and headed to Aleahs' softball game - unfortunately they lost but Aleah played great and it was fun to watch her at 3rd base!

There's a new Krispy Kreme donut place nearby so Robby kept us supplied with donuts all weekend - gosh they are good!

We just played some games and hung out Saturday afternoon and evening - Jill and I finished a movie that we had started Friday night - the guys were glued to football all weekend!

Woke up to rain on Sunday morning but it soon cleared up and the day was beautiful!  Jill had purchased tickets to the Chocolate and Cheese Extravaganza in Loveland along with taste tickets - I was so excited to go as I hadn't been to anything like that!  Jill's friend Christiana and her daughter came along too!  A nice picture of the 3 of us before we head out!

The chocolate place was great - crowded, even though you had a timed ticket and you just walked around and if you wanted a sample, you gave the different places a ticket or two!  We LOVED the chocolate places and had a couple of favorites - some of the cheese was a little strange tasting but it was sure nice to have some cheese inbetween all that chocolate!

My favorite was a chocolate raspberry brownie AND a coffee chocolate bar - all in all a wonderful time and I'm so glad we got to do it!

Glenn and I headed out when we got back to Jill's - the traffic was not bad at all so we made awesome time getting back home - a great time in Ft. Collins!
