tomorrow's family date

last week baby girl and i were out of town until late friday night and this week we've been kinda lacking on family time together because i've had stuff going on in the evenings.  monday night i was planning something with the laurels, tuesday night was young womens, wednesday night was a presidency meeting, thursday night was stake auxiliary training for young women leaders, tonight i have quilting, and tomorrow night is the relief society broadcast.  so i've seen my honey in passing.  like one would see a babysitter.  honey arrives, we hand off the child, i leave.

so earlier this week, i had fun planning an awesome saturday date for us.  saturday family dates are my favorite.  

after much deliberating, i picked the museum of transportation in denver.

then i thought, we should drive through the mountains to see the colorful fall leaves!

golden gate canyon is in it's peak right now...

and the park fee is only $7 for the day...

and it's close!  the museum is only a few minutes out of the way!

so we're going to get baby girl up early and let her eat a banana or granola bar (probably both, she's been eating like crazy lately) in her carseat while we drive to the museum and then we're we're done there, we'll spend the rest of our time enjoying the mountains and fall leaves.  i just hope we can get everything in since i have to be back in time for the 6:00 broadcast.

but seriously though, i'm so excited.  i even looked up hikes.  that's saying something.

so i'll take a minute again to address those not living in colorado... you should totally move here.  and then we can be bff in real life.  the amenities are excellent.
