We recently came across a hilarious movie of Brady and Katie from about 6 or 7 years ago, and definitely had to share it! :-D

The Whitewater Fall Festival was held in Kansas on October 6, giving us a chance to ride our unicycles in the parade! We joined our cousins in advertising Heritage Fire Sprinkler, owned and operated by Brent Bergen.

::Nine of us altogether on unicycles. Notice the horse unicycle ridden by Brittany.::

::The other girls were filling up the candy buckets::

 In most pictures, you won't see everyone at once, 

because we all rode around the truck.

Me, Brittany, on the horse unicycle. I wore a cowboy hat and my cousin's spurs. :-D

The parade was a great success! Hopefully the others will come up to Aurora for our parade next year. :-D

We came home Sunday, and stopped in Hebron, NE, at a park. 

One of our favorite things was the "hamster cage"!

 The main attraction in Hebron is, according to the sign, 

"The World's Largest Porch Swing." 

We don't fill it up very well, do we!

   Our family, Grandma Bergen, and her sister Maxine went on a drive along Shelf Road, and came back another scenic way, but I don't remember which road that was. Anyways, we had a great time! Here are some of the pictures.

 

 

It was pretty hard to get pictures out of the suburban windows, and to see around the ten or so people in our suburban. :-) So, Brady piped up, "Hey, Dad, can we ride up on top?" Dad agreed, so we pulled over and climbed on the roof and rode for several miles!!! What fun! Many of the next pictures are from the top of the suburban. :-D Beautiful view from up there, too. 

 After we stopped again to look at the scenery, we got Grandma Bergen to climb up and get her picture with us. :-)

Here is some more beautiful scenery!

A beautiful little stream in the canyon to our left.

The rock walls on our right.

We wanted to see the Royal Gorge, but didn't want to pay the money...so we followed a road where we could hike a short ways and look down over the side! We watched some rafts come down the gorge, and that was really neat. 

If you look closely, you can see the Royal Gorge Bridge in the background.

Later we met our cousin Miranda at Garden of the Gods, and went hiking and unicycling.

Dad and Brady!

We met Laura and her boys at Focus on the Family later that day. We had lots of fun with Braxton and Kaden there. :-)

Stroller parking in Odyssey!

Yep, the elevator!

Wonder who's clowning around now...!

 We ate supper at the airplane restaurant! Everyone enjoyed playing in the cockpit of the airplane.

(Notice the two heads in the window!)

Well, I hope you enjoyed all the pictures of our Colorado vacation!
