Soooo, I haven't written about our Spring Break and visitors yet!! We had a great time and hope everyone else did as well!
The Schwabs arrived the Friday our break started after a turbulent flight :/ It was very windy that day but the sun was shining and the kids immediately went over to the school to play. Saturday morning, we headed south to Colorado Springs to visit the zoo and Focus on the Family. As you can see from my previous pics, it snowed on us at the zoo!! We endured for an hour or so and then as it started to come down harder, we headed to the car. It was amazing to be that close to giraffes! They like to eat crackers out of your hand :) After a yummy Italian lunch, we went to Focus on the Family but got there about two hours until closing, so our time was limited. The kids (except Baylie!) enjoyed the very, very long and slippery slide that extended one floor down! That night, we got ready for Easter and watched the Cougs win!! Sunday, we took the Schwabs to our church and happily, the kids loved it! Dalton got a bunny sticker!! Don and JW took the kids over to the Rec Center playground that afternoon with the bikes. That evening, the four adults took a drive to look at some new developments in the area.
Meanwhile over these couple of days, the kids had been working on a very involved and entertaining video, which we all watched.....they also diligently worked on some sandcastle building over at the school Kindergarten playground and went back and forth to check on things.
Monday, JW went back to work and the rest of us went to Boulder to look around. We ate at the Cheesecake Factory and picked up some cupcakes (see pics below). That evening, we went to Dave and Busters for some dinner and vids... what great prizes the kids got with their tickets :/ A direct quote from JW regarding Dave and Busters, "You might as well take a $50 bill and flush it down the toilet!" The kids had fun though....... Tuesday, Kerri and I hit the mall and the kids and Don hung out. We said goodbye to the Schwabs about 5:00, the same time Zach and Kayla's plane was pulling in!
Brady and Zach went to an Avalanche game and Kayla, Baylie and I went and saw Horton Hears a Who, we went to the Flatirons Mall once or twice, ESPN Zone, and Boulder. And, they helped us pick out Chloe and her name!!
Here are some pics of Baylie playing soccer and Brady playing basketball.....
