A Busy Weekend

Well the weekend has flown by... Here are a few highlights.

• Friday, Brad took a half day and meet us at Elitch's. It was nice and hot, so it was definately a day for the Water Park. Austin did the Edge, Colton and I did the Rip Qurl. We had a great time.
• Saturday held a lots of activities. First was the Swim Meet in the southern most part of Denver. It was a very hot day, and the meet was very big. There were 4 teams, and it lasted almost 5 hours. Grandma Becky, Grandpa John, Jake & Emily joined us. The boys did very well. Austin is improving a lot. And Colton had some good competition.
• After the meet, we all split up. Austin went to spend the night with Jake & Emily. They went swimming, and had plans to go to TinyTown on Sunday. He had a great time.
• Colton & Lauren went to spend the night in Castle Rock. They swam at Jake & Emily's pool first, and then headed down to CR. Lauren had a special present for Scarlet. A really cute pink and black striped dog dress. Yes, a dog dress!
• Well with the kids being cared for Brad and I had the rest of the day to run errands. We decided to do a little shopping. We're trying to get some pictures, and things for the house. But we winded up making a few extra purchases. Austin got a new hat, backpack on wheels, a wooden boat, and new bedding. Colton got new shoes, and a Broncos shirt. I got 2 new swimsuits. And Brad also got new clothes. Lauren didn't get anything, and yes that's a first. She will get a new backpack when she goes shopping with Brad later this week. ( I thought for Kindergarten, she should pick out her first backpack.)
• After lots of shopping, Brad and I meet Bj, Kelly & Annabelle for dinner at Texas Roadhouse. Yum.... I don't even have to look at the menu, because I always order the same thing. Roadkill. It's so good.
• Next, Kelly and I made our way to the movie theater to see Momma Mia. (BJ & Brad took Annabelle home, as 7:00 is her bedtime.) We enjoyed the movie. Afterwards, we hung out at their house, and watched TV.
• Now, unto Sunday.... Brad woke up to watch the British Open. We do feel bad for Greg Norman, as he lost. Then we had to get ready for the Rockies Game.
• We got tickets in a suite at Coors Field. So this was the first time we've sat in a suite, and is why we couldn't bring the kids with us. Not that we couldn't get tickets for them, but that then they would always want to sit in an air conditioned room, with a TV and stocked refrigerator and food tray.
• We were really glad to be in the suite, as it was only 102 today in Denver. But the Rockies had a great game. The final score was 11-3!!
• Next we had to pick up the kids. We went to Jake & Emily's, and later meet everyone else at Olive Garden.
• Finally, we made our way home, and are going to catch up on some much needed rest, by going to bed early.
