Colorado Railroad Museum

We decided to go check out the Colorado Railroad Museum w/one of my girlfriends from college. My military ID came in hand here, FREE admission, and a thank you for your service. That was a pleasant surprise! Anyhow, on Saturdays, you can take a train ride around the museum w/your admission. Aidan really enjoyed that. They also had several of the train cars open, that were usually unavailable to the public. There was even a HUGE miniature train display. Aidan enjoyed watching the train pass by him. Despite the heat (even early in the morning), we had a pleasant time!

Denver Botanical Gardens

I really put myself out there last week. Those of you who know me, know just how shy I can be. I joined a FB group, "Lives of Doctors Wives". Really neat group where you can associate with ladies in your same/similar situations. Anyhow, one of the ladies was in the area while her husband was at a conference. She asked if anyone wanted to meet up w/her and her son. I had the morning free and decided it would be an adventure. Aidan and I had a great time getting to know her and enjoying the beauty of nature!

Summer Fun

We had a busy week! Ron went to Pennsylvania to take board exams on Tuesday and Wednesday, but we had him the remainder of the week. So, we enjoyed a birthday party and then went to a park (where we rode a train and played in the stream)!!! I love summer!

4th of July

Ron had finally returned from his neurosurgery rotation in Tacoma, WA so we were able to at least enjoy one holiday with him. We spent the day with some of our med school friends eating treats and swimming at the pool! I spent the least amount of time in the pool and came home with the most significant sunburn. *sigh*

Father's Day Weekend

Well, we didn't get to celebrate Father's Day with Ron either, but sent him some treats in his suitcase to enjoy. We did get to spend the weekend with grandpa (my dad). This is the third year in a row my parents have been here for Father's Day. It was wonderful! The Saturday before we went to the Parker Days Parade.

Then on Father's Day dad and I went to see "Superman" and then had Cold Stone Ice Cream for dinner!

Aidan's 1st Birthday

Well, Ron missed Aidan's actual birthday, which was a bummer, but that is the life of a doctor's family. My parents were able to come visit and we decided to spend the day at Garden of the Gods. Too bad Aidan won't remember, it was such a fun day!
