Visitors

We were kept very busy the month of February with visitors. (And of course we loved every bit of it!) We had so much fun with all our guests. First it was my Parents. Then Natalie and Ryan. And then Kym and Andrew.

It was so fun having Natalie and Ryan here! After we picked them up at the airport we headed to the Cherry Cricket for lunch. Burgers are Natalie's favorite so I thought it would be fun to bring them to the place that is voted #1 and has been on "Man vs. Food." The first night we just hung out and played Apples to Apples and had a cocktail or 2 or 3 or... It was a phenominlllallll time! We spent Saturday in the mountains skiing and snowboarding. It was a great day followed by a great sushi dinner!



 We spent Sunday in Boulder. We had a great lunch at West End Tavern which is another restaurant that has been on "Man vs. Food" for their wing challenge. We got a bucket of 50 wings between the 4 of us and Ryan and Morgan kept debating whether they thought they could do the 50 wings in 30 minute challenge. I highly doubt they could do it! Natalie and I walked through a couple cute stores while the guys had another beer. It was a fun day!




 We had a wonderful weekend with great friends, yummy food and a cocktail or 2 or 3 or........


The following weekend the Conners came to visit! It was a very fun weekend with  a little less drinking then the previous weekend! Thursday night Andrew and Morgan played in the Court of Dreams at the Pepsi Center and then we stayed to watch the Nuggets - Celtics game. It was such a fun night! It was so fun to watch them play on the same court that the Nuggets play on! And my Hubby did REALLY well I might add!









Friday we went to Boulder for lunch. We brought them to the West End Tavern. It's a really cute place with yummy food and it has been on "Man vs Food." After lunch we walked through a couple stores. It was snowing so Kym and I stopped for a coffee of course. It was a cozy kind of day! Later that day the Sola Family came to visit and stay for the night. It was such a fun time! We made dinner and just hung out. It was so fun to have our house full of friends!





We spent Saturday in the mountains. Morgan and Andrew skied and snowboarded. Kym and I went to Vail and had a nice lunch and walked around the shops in the beautiful village. It was a fun day!


And then there was Sunday.... Morgan had been talking about getting another dog for quit some time. He had been looking into rescuing or getting a puppy from a  breeder. So he found a breeder in Colorado that was about an hour away that had 2 male Doodles and 2 male Golden Retrievers ready to be welcomed into a loving family. So, with Andrew's go ahead we were off to LOOK at the puppies. I wasn't quit ready to make the big plung so I was a little reluctant. We made the trek out to the middle of no where, down a long dirt road, to the breeders house. As we were getting out of the car my last words were, "WE ARE ONLY LOOKING! WE ARE NOT TAKING ONE HOME!" But yah right! How do you just go look at adorable little puppies?!?! So once we went back and forth about it for about an hour, the 3 of them talked me into it. So we then narrowed it down to 1 doodle and 1 golden. Of course I fell in love with the Doodle. There's just something about Doodles that melt my heart! But going there Morgan had his heart set on a Golden. So, guess what we ended up with.... the Golden! Our sweet, adorable little Cooper is one lucky little guy! {Thanks Kym and Andrew for helping us pick out our handsome little man!}





We had such a fun-filled weekend with the Conners!!!
