Weekend Visitors

Mom and the girls came to join us for a weekend and I was super happy to have them here. We spent the weekend shopping, shopping and mainly shopping. Of course we did throw in a trip to the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. I thought it was going to be boring, but it turned out to be pretty fun. While we were there we went and saw a 3D movie about polar bears and got to wear some sweet glasses.

 After church on Sunday we took the dogs to the lake and of course Madi took the opportunity to do a photo shoot.

 Once Daisy comes out of the water she runs away and you have to chase her down.

She can fly! :)

 so pathetic looking...

 wait for me...

 all done swimming and oh so tired!

 After all that swimming a nap was in order...

Of course that didn't last too long before the wrestling began!

 And what better way to end the evening then everyone on a i-pad or laptop and you better believe Madi was involved, but she thought it was funny and we needed to document it!

The next few days were spent shopping and hanging out as usual. It was fun to have them come and visit for a few days and look forward to the next visit!

Independence Day

This 4th of July was pretty laid back and since it was the middle of the week we decided that we were going to be lazy. We slept in and didn't do anything that required much energy. We did decide to take the dogs to Carter Lake and let them swim for a bit which was fun. Tank absolutely LOVES the water and will fetch all day. Daisy is getting there- she likes to swim, but after a while becomes a bit whiny because she's tired.

After we took the dogs we came back and chilled until the fireworks. We decided not to go to Lake Loveland where they do them, but once we heard them starting we stepped outside. It was quite nice standing in the middle of the road snuggling my man and watching the fireworks above the rooftops. No one was out doing fire works due to the fact that they were banned this year with all the major fires in the area. Then we put the truck tail gate down and finished the rest of the show as the pups played in the back of the truck. After that we came inside and watched the Macy's fireworks on TV and called it a night. It was nice not having to fight the crowds or the dogs going crazy with all the neighborhood fireworks. It was a nice relaxing 4th of July and I couldn't think of anyone better to spend it with!
