Visiting Harmony School, Aunt, Uncle and "Mr. Jas"

On Tuesday Sofia and I drove up to Ft Collins to visit Aunt Cathy, Uncle Eric, my cousin Jason and to finally see Harmony School! First we went to Harmony School and met up with Aunt Cathy who gave us a great tour of the entire building, including visits to each class, the gym, and to the playground outside. To say Sofia loved it is an understatement! She ran into each class and joined the crowd with gusto, often pushing kids out of the way while saying "Don't do that!" (no, not my proudest moments of her). The school is absolutely amazing and it was fantastic to finally visit! After spending some time at the school, Aunt Cathy drove Sofia and I into old town Ft Collins to meet up with my Uncle Eric and cousin Jason (aka "Mr. Jas" to Sofia) for a great lunch on the patio of a Mexican restaurant. Sofia and Mr. Jas hit it off immediately and she had a great time playing with him, particularly after lunch! Unfortunately his wife and two kids are out of town. We returned to Aunt and Uncle's house to hang out for a while (Sofia wouldn't take a nap in their guest room unfortunately), before driving back to Denver. Needless to say, Sofia was fast asleep before we even got onto the highway.

Our first look at the school (this is actually the side of the building)
