Happy Birthday Daddy!

Sean's birthday was yesterday. We went up to Breck for the weekend for some fun in the not-so-hot sun! We had a really good time. It was only 85 degrees during the days (highs were in the upper 90s in Boulder all weekend). The nights were cold enough that we had to put Owen in pajamas to sleep and we even put a hat on him one night!! Ahhhh! It was blissful!

We went up on Friday. Owen was in a particularly cheerful mood which we attribute in part to the presence of so many mirrors in the room. We took a cute video from that evening (see "Owen in Breck" below).

On Saturday, Sean and I took Owen to the ranch up on Peak 9. Owen was was pretty curious. He saw a rabbit:

and, a daddy and baby horse (yes, we are sure about the genders of the horses - it was pretty obvious!):
It was really fun to watch Owen. The horses were drawn to him - they kept coming over to the fence to say hi. Owen, despite his sleepiness, had a story to tell them. We took a video (see "Owen and the Horses" below)

On our way home we, of course, had to stop by a stream so Owen could look...

and play...

and take a nap...


I think Sean had a great birthday weekend!

Cool video (the one at the farm was temporarily unavailable, but I'll check it out later)! Owen will love the goat down the road from the barn, who goes "baahhh" all the time!
