Mile High City

Tuesday we were off to our former home with a little nervous excitement about what we would feel once we got there.

Mike left Denver 9 months ago and the rest of us have been here for 5 months.  We got in about 6:30 and after an uneventful and non napping flight we had a tired kiddo on our hands.  Once to the rental car he grabbed his blanket and waved bye bye (what he does when he is going to bed at home) to Mike as he put him into his car seat.  He was sleeping before we left the car rental lot. 

We quickly decided our favorite stops and ordered up food to be picked up.   Then we were off to our friends house that we would be staying at for the next couple days.

Wednesday Thomas and I were off to see Alexis and Kylie and meet baby Patrick who was born on September 3rd.   We had a great visit, lunch, and some play time in their backyard before we headed back to home base for a nap.  Then it was off to the old neighborhood to see our neighbor Deb and her kiddos, Blakely and Remy.   After our play date with them we were off to a BBQ that Katie and Donny hosted on our behalf so we could see a bunch of friends at the same time and place.   We also met Mike there after his day at work with a lunch break to check in with his buddies.  Thomas had a great time seeing all of our friends from "back home.”  They were very impressed with his beer delivering skills.   Thanks again Donny and Katie for hosting!

Thursday Thomas and I were off to meet Allison and Lilli for a morning at the Botanic Gardens.  We then napped at their house and played some more before I was off to book club and Thomas spent some time with his Daddy and Matt.

Friday morning Thomas and I went to the park and Daddy ran errands before T and I went to dance at the studio we danced at while we lived there and then we were off to the mountains while ne napped. 

Whew-a whirl wind tour of Denver.  We got to see a lot of friends but there wasn't enough time to fit in everyone, everything, and spend as much time as we wanted.
