Weekend Update: Colorado

Jay and I left Friday night for Colorado to visit with the Davis family. As we usually do, we spent Friday night with Shawn & Juvy in downtown Denver. It was really nice to see them! Unfortunately our flight was delayed and didn't get in until 10:30...so our plans to meet up with my friend Brandi were cancelled and we just went to Shawn's loft for some catching up before heading to bed. Saturday morning, we enjoyed breakfast at Pete's (I had the gyro breakfast sandwich which was fabulous!) and then headed down to Castle Rock to see the family.

The twins were eating lunch when we arrived. I was so happy to see that they were sporting their "X" and "L" onesies that I made them for their birthday! Guess who's who :)

They are getting so big and have wonderful personalities! Xander babbles up a storm and Liam's smiles and giggles are contagious! They are not quite walking but are very close. More than anything, they had fun crawling all over grandma and grandpa Davis' house with it's nice and open floor plan! There were lots of fun things to explore down at floor-level. I especially loved watching Liam with the door spring:


Saturday afternoon we visited the park. It was beautiful outside and nice to get some fresh mountain air!


Saturday night, we went to the Old Stone Church restaurant for dinner while Mary babysat the boys (who were sleeping when we left). It was such a nice time catching up over drinks, delicious food, and great company. The restaurant was an old church built in 1888, so the architecture was beautiful - stained glass windows, exposed stone, and cozy furnishings. We all left happy and satiated!


Sunday we spent the day relaxing at home. Todd, Karen, Mary and I took a walk with Liam and Xander around the neighborhood. It was nice enough to be outside with just a long sleeved shirt and no coat!

It was sad to leave after such a short visit, but we are looking forward to seeing everyone again in June for Kyle & Becca's wedding in Kansas City.

1) I love Colorado
2)The shirts are awesome! Lucky twins!
3) You make me hungry when you write about food.
4)Wish the wedding were in late July so I could see you! However, we may be in Kansas for two years instead of one. So, our time will come!
