Sunday Picnic at the Park

The weather was GORGEOUS on Saturday so we decided that we should take Turbo and our Sunday Chipolte (yes we have it every week!) to the park down the street.

Turbo loves to run and play in the grass; we love to eat Chipolte, anywhere!

More pics of Turbo!

(tasting sour cream and falling down the slide)

It was fun!

Crazy Man's Castle

Bishop's Castle

A crazy man, building a castle all by himself!

Located in San Isabel Forest

My family has been visiting this castle since I was at least 9 years old and watching the slow but impressive progress.

On Mother's Day, we took a trip to see how the old man is doing.

I brought some candy for the road trip and didn't

realize that the sucker would be TOO BIG for Lily's mouth...Ha!

Lily-- 6 years old (she is beautiful!)

Matthew--4 years old

(it took forever to get a "happy" pose from him)

Another view of the castle.

The dragons mouth is the chimney

About to climb the staircase to the castle

Can you believe, she is only 14...she looks older than me!

My sister (Lisa) and her Hubby (David) laughing

They didn't know I was taking their pic

Don't ask...it wasn't safe!

Notice how big his personal bubble is!

Amazing husband and wonderful father-in-law

The latest thing in the Farmer household to break is the garbage disposal.

David and I tried everything to get it to work, even sticking our hands in the dreaded hole with squishy, semi-ground food to see if something was caught in it (UCK!). So today David and his dad replaced it.

Here are some pictures from the event:

Um, David, that is not used to make your head smaller...

David, your dad can't breathe when you squeeze his neck like that!

Trying to work out all the kinks....

The finished product!

Way to go guys!

disclaimer: I took the pictures and was the lovely cheerleader :)

Phew, I am tired!
