In the 1920's, John's great grandparents come to CO from Kansas and bought a beautiful piece of land and built a fine cabin just outside of Boulder not too far from Nederland. Each summer they would travel to CO and stay for a couple of weeks and enjoy the fresh mountain air and the breathtaking scenery. We are lucky because we are able to enjoy this as well. John, the boys and I went up for the weekend. It was a great time. We hiked (very slowly, mom) Friday, Saturday and Sunday. While hiking up Peewink on Saturday, we saw a coyote and John saw deer. The boys really enjoyed themselves and were exhausted at the end of each hike. I felt great...we just had to take lots of breaks. The altitude didn't bother me at all. John's Aunt Cindy put together a picture family tree at the clubhouse. John and his grandfather, Calvin Kinyon, have a striking resemblence to each other that we never realized before. They look so much alike; it is pretty crazy. We will have to dig out some more pictures.

This is Peewink mountain that we hiked up on Saturday, taken from the cabin. The second picture is the view looking down on the cabin from the top of Peewink.


There's my nine month pregnant belly & our happy little family.
Happy Father's Day- Daddy, Chuck & John!

It looks beautiful there! I'm glad to finally catch up and see John is switching jobs and you are all doing well. I'll try to give you a call later this week for that walk!
