We were blessed with a long weekend visit from the Mc Cormack family. Mo, Dave and Amelia flew in on Thursday nite and stayed until Monday morning. It was so nice to see friends from Raleigh. It made me feel somewhat normal you could say. Ben and i had to laugh as each time someone has visited us we have gotten a blast of very cold winter weather which seems to make it much harder to entertain as alot of Colorado activities are outside activities. On the brighter side our heater didn't decide to have problems so at least we had heat this time around.
Ben, Dave and my brother Brandon headed to Copper Mountain to ski on Friday and had a great time. Mo and I hung out with the kids and went a little crazy but it was so darn cold out there wasn't alot of options. By the evening on Friday we had gotten about 2 to 3inches of snow which made Sat. morning slow going as the roads needed time to be cleared and now that we have the van we aren't so confident driving in the snow.
We did get a chance to drive by the Garden of the Gods, play at Mr. Biggs which is a kids play land, and have date night (thanks to mom who babysat) at a Sports bar named Frankie's where we watched the playoff game in peace. To bad the Packer lost!!! I wish we could have gotten more activities and sightseeing in but it just didn't work out this time however I know I really enjoyed just spending time with great friends and watching the kids play. Amelia is so sweet and It was fun to get to know her again. I was sad to say good bye when Monday came but I now look forward to the next visit which I hope will be us heading back East soon!!
Just a few highlights from our family life that I hope you will enjoy.
