Great Sand Dunes National Park
My friend Tom and I spent a few days exploring Great Sand Dunes National Park and the surrounding area back in April. It’s a spectacular valley and we had a great time getting some really good pictures. The trip ended with vomiting at a Walgreen’s.
Spring Break 2019: Colorado
Colorado Springs
We spent the first half of the week in Colorado Springs.
Loveland
Midweek, we headed up to Loveland to stay with Auntie Car and Unkie Doo. We hadn’t been there since Aly was just a toddler, but we had a blast as we always did on previous visits.
After a great week in Colorado, I dropped the girls off at DEN and then picked up my friend Tom for our adventure at Great Sand Dunes National Park, which is coming up in the next post.

Always a hit with our kids (now just kid), Leah brought a friend to the elementary carnival at Black River. Leah even won one of the big door prizes in the raffle.

Odyssey of the Mind
For the past few months, Leah has been on an Odyssey of the Mind team with some other kids from Black River. Their OotM team finished their season with a competition at Wayland High School in February, and they did a great job.
Aly Choir Concert
February featured another fun performance from the Black River choirs.
Saugatuck Dunes State Park in Winter
I got out to the dunes twice for sunset in February, even convincing Aly to come with me the second time.

Leah celebrated her 8th birthday with a party at BAM, with bowling, pizza, cupcakes, ice cream, presents, laser tag, and arcade time.
On her actual birthday, she celebrated at home with balloons and presents.
