Labor Day Weekend

We had a busy but super fun Labor Day Weekend this year! We started it off by making one last trip to Pirate's Cove, a water park near Denver. We didn't know if the weather would still be warm enough in September, but it was perfect.

Andrew's dad also came into town for a quick visit over the weekend, and it was great to see him! Every year on Labor Day Weekend, there is a hot air balloon festival here in the Springs. Each evening during the festival, they do something called Balloon Glo. After dark, the hot air balloons fill up with air and glow without taking off. It was so cool, and I am kicking myself that we have lived here this long and this is the first time we have been. It will not be the last!

Waiting for it the start!

With Grandpa!

So pretty!



The next day we met up with Andrew's grandparents and had a great visit!
Great-grandparents!

That's a lot of Straits!
