Rigley was a bit too young to play with Avalon, but Avalon found lots of things to keep her busy.
The nearby park where she has a blast sliding with daddy.
And there were lots of fun toys in the community area in their backyard.
Avalon also got up enough courage to pet their dog Euchre, who is the most kid friendly dog we've ever met, so that definitely put Jarad and I at ease.
Back in Boulder, Avalon also met Libby and Chris's puppy Jack, who is actually younger than Avalon even though he is already bigger than her. Avalon was also very interested in Jack.
And she had fun pretending to be a puppy when Jack was outside.
We also went to an outdoor bbq in Boulder with Libby and Chris.
Where Avalon had fun on the swing with Jarad and Chris.
And she also joined in on the croquet game. Her goals in the game were a little different than the other players as she wanted to pull the steaks and gates out of the ground.
However, like everyone else, she did attempt to hit the ball with her mallet.
On our last day in Boulder, we spent the afternoon on Pearl street.
It is a pedestrian street, so it was a great place for Avalon to play. And for some reason she just loves these metal plates on the ground.
Later than afternoon, we did another short hike with Libby and Chris.
Avalon had fun playing with Jarad and Libby. Or was it the other way around. :)
Towards the end of the hike, she actually fell asleep in the backpack carrier, which was pretty amazing. Kids really can sleep anywhere! In her defense, we did go on the hike during her nap time.
There is still more to this story. Stay tuned for the finale.

For those interested, you can follow Jen, Chris, Rigley, and Euchre at their blog (link below). They have been a bit lax lately, but we all understand that.

The picture of Avie sleeping in the backpack is very reminiscent of the times her father did the same...summer, fall, spring or WINTER.
