How nice it is to sit and watch some football, fold some laundry, and relax tonight. Friday night we took the boys to their first Rockies game. It was a beautiful night for baseball, beer, and junk food. Tanner and I took off early, but Marshall and Drake stayed for the fireworks. They were both so well behaved (Tanner got a bit ansy), but it makes it so easy to take them places when they listen and behave so well.
Saturday morning brought a trip to the mountains for us and Nadja and Ryan babysitting for the boys. According to Nadja and Ryan, the boys behaved and I will believe them so I can feel good about our night out. We feel so fortunate that we have such good friends that were willing to watch our kids so we could have a wonderful night out.
We headed up to King Mountain Ranch near Granby and arrived around noon. We were able to check out the ranch, have some lunch on the porch and get ready for the 3:00 wedding. The weather cooperated perfectly for the outdoor wedding, cocktails in the courtyard, and then thankfully, there was a tent for the reception as the rain moved in. We had a great time eating, drinking, and dancing. We then moved back to the ranch and had more drinks, and did a little bowling (in the oldest automatic bowling alley in Colorado). Yes, I won. :)
Sunday morning we had some breakfast and headed back down to Denver. Both Marshall and I really thought the aspen has turned more specular in the 24 hours we had been up there. And then, Marshall got a last minute call to go to the Bronco game so he was able to enjoy a beautiful day for football and an exciting Bronco win. A wonderful, crazy weekend.
