A Big Surprise For Pop

Pop's three daughters got sneaky and decided to make a surprise visit to Colorado for his 70th birthday.

Lulu planned a birthday party on the night we arrived which proved to be a good distraction.  All the guests had arrived when the three girls arrived and snuck in behind the house.  Pop was VERY surprised!

The original clan back together.


 Later that evening there were toasts and key lime pie.

Another family shot...

...and another.

The next day we went to Estes Park and stayed at the Stanley Hotel.  We did a quick hike when we arrived.  Here we are by the "boot" rock.  P.S. Coco is pregnant with #3.

The lake was our destination.

We made it!

Hiking happiness.

The next day we did another beautiful lake hike that passed by Alberta Falls.  Three sisters.

That's Pop.

Amazing landscape.

Not a bad spot for a picnic.

Back to the house on Sunday to see our friends, the elk.

On our last night, we read Pop birthday letters and gave him this wood cut map of the Baja.  Happy Birthday Pop!!!
