Denver Visitors

Mom, dad, Collie, Zach and Corbin came to visit us last weekend! We missed having Josh (EFY counselor) and Easton come along for the fun! Corbin and Nolan are 3 weeks and 3 minutes apart, we were very excited to meet him. Everyone flew in early Friday (June 17) morning. My mom and dad rented a car and brought everyone back to our place.

We went to lunch at Buffalo Bakery for lunch and had a fun time there. We went back to our place and waited for Ryan to get home. Once he got home, we went to Blue Bonnet for dinner and drove around downtown Denver to show everyone around. Everyone was pretty tired from getting up early, so we just watched a movie and went to bed.

The boys were troopers and did really well with all the running around we did

Saturday
Ryan and Zach went on a tour of a building that Ryan's firm designed. While they were on the tour, everyone else went to Cherry Creek mall and walked around. We met up for lunch at a place across the street from our place. Everyone was able to choose where they wanted to go for lunch; Noodles & Co., Chipolte, or Indian food. That night we went to the Rockies game and it was so much fun! Our seats were fantastic, and the weather was perfect. The game was packed, and we were lucky to get seats by each other. The babies did really well, and they received a lot of attention from other people.

Corbin was very interested in the game :)


Sunday
We went to church in the morning and then to a park for lunch. We met up with Ryan's family at the park and had a fun time there. That night we watched an oldie but goodie, City Slickers and went to bed.
Monday
We went to the Denver Museum of Natural Science and paid the extra money to see the Pirate exhibit. My favorite exhibit was the Ancient Egypt, and the Pirates came in a close second.

For dinner that night we went to the Cherry Cricket. Zach had been looking up places to eat that the food network challenge had been to. This was one of the places and it did not disappoint. The hamburgers were delicious.

It was so much fun having my family come to visit. We always have a great time when we are together. Thanks dad, mom, Collie, Zach and Corbin for a fun weekend! Love you guys!!!
