Furlough (2)--Colorado, Iowa, and Michigan

We arrived in Colorado on a Friday evening, and early Monday morning my dad and my husband left for Synod in Iowa.  The kids and I stayed with my mom and had a few days of fun in Colorado.

At the Alluvial Fan in Rocky Mountain National Park


Another great place for the kids to climb!

On Thursday we drove to Iowa and stayed overnight with Rev. & Lael Griess's family while we waited for Synod to finish.  Thank you to the Griesses for their hospitality!
