Apex Aquatic Center

Splish splash, make a dash to one of the best indoor Water Parks I've ever seen.  With water slides,  a lazy river, a gradual depth kiddie pool,  aquatic jungle gym, and a leap frog zone, the Apex Aquatic Center is a great  place  to make your splash.

Apex Center Club House

Finding places to take your kids in the winter can be challenging.  The Apex Center Club House is just the place to beat the wintertime blues.  Jungle gyms are a great place to work out those wiggles.

Trinity Methodist Episcopal Church

Trinity Methodist Episcopal Church

Something fascinates me about the architecture of churches.   Could be the steeples, crosses, or ornate designs, I'm not sure, but I love to lose myself in the complicity of their design.  They're so beautiful.  Maybe its because we as humans aspire to capture a small fraction of the beauty of our creator.  The one who gave us the ability to appreciate beauty.  It only makes sense that the places we worship would display some of that beauty.  What ever the case, I often find myself take pictures of cathedrals and other religious structures.

Elitches Gardens

Elitches Gardens

One of my family's favorite summer activities, is a trip to Elitches Gardens amusement park.  This year we invited our friends and their family join us.  Having them along made for double the fun.

The Denver Public Library has a summer reading program with tickets to Elitches being one of the rewards.  It's a fantastic way to keep kids reading.  What a great way to make family memories.

Miller Farms ~ Pick Your Own Vegetables

 

 

Miller Farms

 

 

Growing your own vegetables can be somewhat of a challenge when you live in the city.  Every year I have great plans for my garden, but somehow I never seem to have enough space for all the things I want to grow.  This year my friend Naomi invited me to join her on her annual pick your own vegetables spree.  I decided it was the perfect way to supplement my own garden produce.  What a great day of fun on the farm.

The Old Spaghetti Factory

 

The Old Spaghetti Factory

 

While my sister was here a few weeks ago, took me out for a special treat at the Spaghetti Factory.   If there's anyone who knows how to make spaghetti, it's the Spaghetti Factory! It was so delicious.  That and the whole downtown thing.  I love going downtown where all the skyscrapers are.
