1. Our very good friends Tim and Helen came to stay with us for a week! I hadn't seen Helen for a year and a half, and that's just too long. We had so many adventures while they were here that it took us two weeks just to recover. :)
We hiked...
We hiked some more...
We risked our lives white-water rafting...
and we really enjoyed our time together, however fleeting it was.
Time with good friends is such a huge blessing. We can't wait to hang out with you guys again!
2. Bill and I got to go to the Mile High Music Festival this year in Denver. The Mile High is a two-day music festival with dozens of musical artists playing on 5 different stages throughout the day. The head-liners (and the main reasons for our attendance this year) were Jack Johnson and Dave Matthews Band! Oh...yeah...
3. And to continue the musical theme, Bill bought us tickets to see our first concert at Red Rocks Amphitheater - Ray LaMontagne and David Gray! Okay, so let me just say that I love Ray LaMontagne's music, but he's not the greatest entertainer. What made the evening enjoyable was that I got to spend it with my wonderful husband in the beautiful setting of Red Rocks listening to some great music.
There are more pictures here from our exciting August adventures!
So, now the weather has turned cooler, and the leaves are starting to change. Summer is officially behind us, but we are looking forward to the fall season and all the fun that comes along with it!
