Thanksgiving Road Trip

Took an awesome road trip last weekend with a couple friends, Jon and Scott... started with Arches National Park:

(A lot more photos from the trip here...)

Hard to tell here, but all four of us are up the tree. There was a lot of climbing and jumping this trip.... :)

Sunset at Delicate Arch

Next day was Canyonlands National Park:

And finally, snowshoeing, north of Durango:

Mimi's 90th birthday!

Last month, Eva-Lynn, Kelly, and I flew back to California to celebrate my grandma Mimi's 90th birthday with her. It was awesome! We made her wear the crown all day. :)

It was actually a joint birthday party for a bunch of people... Tom's birthday was that day, Yvonne had just had one, and Vicki's was in a few weeks.

She looks a bit dazzled....

The card played "Macho Man"....

Yvonne was turning (mumble mumble) years young!

Vicki's card is of a teddy bear strapped to a bottle rocket... it says "I'm moving to another planet." :)

And of course, no visit is complete without games...

I think Eva-Lynn had just rolled a Yahtzee here.

Happy Birthday, Mimi!!!

(I love her face here....)

Halloween Hike

I didn't take many pictures at all of the fall GCF retreat this year... mostly of this hike and other Saturday afternoon activities, and some shots of our costumes. I still want to get photos from the costume party that night... anyone want to burn me a CD?

You can download these photos and more from the day here.

So epic.

An unusual group photo pose...

We had our safety bumper-tubes on as we hiked up to go tubing.

Bumper-tube chest bump!!!

Scott attempted to roll down the hill in a couple of tubes. It worked for a minute....

Some front-flip action:
