Happy 4th Birthday Evan!!

FINALLY - it was time to celebrate Evan's 4th birthday!! His birthday was actually Feb. 18th but we had decided to wait a week so EVERYONE would be available to have his party - but it wasn't to happen............

Glenn and I headed up to Denver on Friday night - traffic was light and we made good time which is always a plus since the kids are usually so excited to see us!! We went to Jessi's first as she was babysitting Kylan and Rayna so had a nice visit and even did some dance wii which was SO much fun - I want to do MORE next time!!

We took Rayna and Kylan back to their house and soon Jaime was off work and home - then morning arrived and Jaime came down to tell us that Kylan was vomiting and had the flu - yes, the yucky kind that Jessi's kids had the week before - who knows where Kylan picked it up but he had it good!!!

Darn - next was the phone call to Jill to let her know and of course she decided that she would not come down, and didn't even want Glenn and I to come up (Glenn has YET to meet his newest grandson!!) since we had been exposed - I didn't blame her a bit!! Jaime ran out to get some much needed supplies for a day at home with Kylan and luckily found someone to work for her as Brad was out of town!!

Glenn and I headed over to Jessi's to celebrate Evan's birthday without any other family!! But he loved his presents and we spent the morning playing with him and Kenzie!!



Kenzie was doing a great job in the potty-training division so was awarded a sucker and she was all smiles!!!

Evan was having his friends over that evening but we opted to head out after lunch (and of course after Caribou coffee with Jessi). Glenn had a couple of things he needed to buy in Co. Springs and we decided it was a great afternoon for a movie - we STILL had a gift card from Robby and Jill from a YEAR ago so it was great to have a free movie, popcorn, and pop!! We saw "Unknown" and loved it - one of those edge of the seat movies and a great car chase (and I don't normally like car chase scenes!!). I will definitely see it again when it comes out on video!!
So not quite the weekend we had planned but oh well - that's what happens when you're trying to get 6 grandkids together!! And Sunday I finished up the taxes and FINALLY got the laundry caught up from Mexico - we'll all try another weekend together soon!!

Too bad about the sickness but at least you got to spend some time with the birthday boy. Does he look older! They are growing up way too fast!
