Lake Dillon. Frisco, Colorado

What are we going to do today?

Ellen's favorite ride

So many beautiful flowers

 
Hiking on Loveland Pass

That high mountain in the background was hiked by a few Litwillers
A good hike for all.

Goodbye to our home for a week

We had our Colorado fix for another year - a view of the ski runs in Breckenridge, just outside our house. Goodbye until next time.

 Happy 50th Anniversary from our kids. 
 We took family pictures in the yard.  As you can see, we all wore black shirts and jeans.
 I have added some random pictures of our celebration.  We had a great time together and I hope you enjoy the pictures.


 Our kids, still doing crazy stuff, which we love.

 Alyssa and Ellen(the oldest and youngest grand daughters)  Alyssa announced that we will be great grandparents in December. A new baby in Sweden- that calls for another trip to Sweden.
 The kids went all out to decorate the Shed.  What a great night we had.

























A slide show of oldie pictures and good wishes from many friends.  Each family member including the grandchildren shared memories of grandpa and grandma.  It was very special for us. 

The boys grilled steaks, we had the rest of the food catered.  We had cake and pie, for dessert.
