Christmas Eve, 2003

We spent Christmas Eve at Larry and Pamela's house. It's the first time in many years that Barbara got to be with her parents and brother for Christmas. Left to right: Barbara's mother, half cut off (we were using the auto-timer and Dave had trouble aiming it.), Dave, Barbara, Jared, Larry, Brittany, Pamela, Barbara's Dad, and Kevin.

Downtown Denver

On Saturday, January 24, Dave took Spencer and Jared on a little expedition to downtown Denver while Barbara slept after a night shift. We parked in Littleton and took the commuter train downtown. The train ride was Jared's favorite part.

Here we are, posing at the cannon in front of the Colorado State Capitol building.
