Kids Holiday Visit 2008 January 28, 2009

This was our 1st Christmas in Denver and Tom’s 1st one away from family, so when we heard that his mom was coming to visit with his niece, Halli, and nephew, Blake, we were EXCITED! It was a short trip , but full of fun! When they got here, we learned that the kids didn’t really understand that we had really moved away, it broke my heart, but when Halli asked  what happened to my red hair I couldn’t help but laugh! Kids really do say the best things!!! ( Tom and I still quote one of the many things Halli said while on their visit…. ” YOU JUST DONT GET IT” hahah, where do they learn these things?)

While here, we went on a LONG walk around the city in the freezing cold! Found snow, took pics at the Millennium Bridge, went to REI, The Children’s Museum, went out to eat, and played in both our apartment and the one they were staying in, in our building. Enjoy just a few shots…

 

 

Tom told him we named the street after him!
