Denver

We went on a little trip to Denver last week. All the kids came. We hooked up with Sam & Amy and planned a trip to Coors Field to see the Mets play. (Amy cheered for the Rockies). Andy & Ryan also came the first night.

Day #1 Amy & I went to the Aquarium while Trent & Sam went to meetings. We took a taxi there but didn't think about how we would get back so... we walked! 4 miles across Denver with six kids! We didn't know the way but we used our spidey senses and found it! We also found the best little pizza place ever. Two Fisted Mario's Pizza. Seriously YUMMO! After our long trek, Amy took the little ones back to the room to nap, Al & Wes rented a movie, and I went shopping.
The game was fun! METS WON! This is our 2nd trip to see the Mets play in Denver and we chose the cheap "not so cheap" seats this round. We had some "kid haters" sitting close by. They complained about the kids and moved. So I took their peanuts back to them ;) (not so long, dumb story) lol. And what's up with girls... all sizes of girls... letting their underwear hang out! We started taking pictures of everyone that was around us. (don't worry I won't post) but GOOD HECK! TUCK IN YOUR SHIRT OR SOMETHING! ... or BIGGER undies perhaps... SHEESH.

Day #2 was Water World & the game. We spent the whole morning swimming & going down water slides. It was soooo much fun. Mar tried out quite a few by herself. And the boys can never say no to a water park.
The mets lost the 2nd game but it was still fun as ever! We're planning a trip to see them play in NY next. So there's the trip in a nut shell... enjoy the pics... if ya wanna.

Amy & I got a kick out of this... old man river rock eel thingy! lol


I love turtles!!!




The kids got to pet the stingrays... scary!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARLEIGH!!

Mar had a birthday shout HOORAY!!!



Marleigh turned 7 last Wednesday! We left for Denver the next day so here's her tribute! She's always been a live wire. I found just a few of her pictures that show her off when she was little.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIS!!


Always a dancer!!






Mom & Mar at the Lake








A day in the life of Moo... This is what one day at our home was like when she was little.

I documented one day for my parents when they were on their mission. As you can see she changed clothes A LOT, pretty much got into whatever she wanted, and couldn't stay away from the cat! She's the same way with babies now! ACK!! It's a miracle I have any hair left in my head!


Mouse Chase

What have I been doing? ...hmmm ...Sleeping sounds good! I can't seem to get enough sleep. I'm actually thinking about taking a nap right now!

Last week was Marleigh's birthday! We also went to Denver. We saw a couple of Mets games and went to Water World. It was a lot of fun! I'll get those pictures posted soon.

I'm blogging the mouse chase that happened at our house last week. Trent's going to KILL me! Don't tell him it's on here ;) We were showing it at Mar's family birthday last week. Everyone who saw it got a kick out of it... even Gramma! He was just a little ticked off at us for screaming. :S Afterwards he laughed at what a jerk he looked like. But I still think he's a little embarrassed.

Twilight


So I haven't done a lot lately. In fact I've been thinking about reading my books again. Except for when I do I go into a panic because I really want to read the last one! So I've been doing my normal searching and found the cover to the last book & a countdown to the movie. Even tho it doesn't have the actors I would have chose, I'm really excited to watch it! It looks promising :) I have REALLY high expectations for this one... I just hope it doesn't let me down.
