*Note- my pictures are in backwards order, but sometimes, that is just the way life is!
Our trip to Denver was great, exhausting and action-packed. For example, Tanner now calls himself a "master-jedi" and he is super obsessed with spider-man (thanks Braxton).
Kenny was super overwhelmed with school at first, but he managed to keep up with the pace. The boys and I just played, played, played.
We stayed with Troy and Heather and they were beyond accommodating. I don't think we could have had better service at 5-star hotel...honest! Tanner is now telling everyone about his new friend Braxton.
Jackson had his birthday while we were out there and here are some shots of his party...
everyone was too nice to him, but he sure felt special!


Gotta love that face...
ohhh!

We had doughnuts instead of cake.

Brielle...such a sweet baby!

Hansens and the
Hinkleys (we just love the
Hinkleys, they drove two hours just so we could see their adorable faces..that is true friendship!)

The boys on the train...the highlight of the day for both of them.

Braxton, Tanner, Shelby,
Brayden, and Heather

We also got to catch-up with the
Spendloves. Charissa was one of my best friends in junior high. Her kids are the same age as mine and we had a really great time hanging out together.

Kenny and I were really excited to go home when he was done, but we couldn't have planned out a better time.
Ok, I guess Kenny would have had a lot more fun without the school part :)
