Memorial Day Weekend

Don needed to be in Atlanta for most of the weekend so I flew to Iowa on Thursday night. 

Landon was promoted from 4th to 5th grade.  New building and new friends next year.

Owen finished up 1st grade and Landon 4th grade.

BBQ at Judy's house. 

Aunt Judy has the best climbing tree.

Mom (85) and Dad (88)

Sunday evening we both flew back into the Denver airport so we could enjoy Monday, Memorial Day together in Colorado.  Our destination on Monday was the Royal Gorge.  Our train ride was canceled but we decided to make the trip anyway.  It was about 1 hour and 20 minutes away.
