Busy Times!

We couldn't have asked for a better weekend weather wise - no snow, warm temps and mostly sunny skies!

As usual we jam pack as much as we can into our weekends up north!  Glenn was itching to go ice fishing - Evan had a basketball game - and Rayna had another tournament!  Because I was going with the "church ladies" on Friday to Castle Rock, Glenn actually drove up by himself and one of the ladies who now lives in Hudson, dropped me off at Jaime's on her way home!

The church ladies met at an old church turned restaurant in Castle Rock (how appropriate!!!)  Marilyn (who actually is part of our "choir girls" group) joined us as she was in town from Atlanta so there were 5 of us to eat!

 The restaurant was very unique inside!!  The stained glass windows were still there along with the confessional booth which had a small table for two inside it!  Decorations were very tasteful and you can kind of see the rock wall behind the gals on the right side of the picture!

 Our meals were delicious - and of course the best part was dessert!!  Two of the gals were celebrating birthdays so they automatically received 2 scoops of home made ice cream - and let me tell you, the ice cream was delicious!!  I'll definitely order it by itself next time!!  The other 3 of us shared a chocolate cake dessert which was served with banana ice cream, along with caramel and powdered peanut butter - I hadn't heard of that before!!  It was sure good!!

Glenn and Brad went fishing for the day and we all congregated that evening (along with the Keppy's minus Gary who was on a ski trip that weekend) for dinner at Jaime's!

Saturday morning was Evan's basketball game - Jaime took me by Carino's so I could get some coffee to go and then it was off to the game!  Evan played well and it's fun to see those little guys play!!

 Next on the list was smoothies for the kids and Glenn while we 3 girls ran to Michael's to get some supplies for upcoming scrap booking weekend!!  Glenn watched the kids at Jessi's house while we also ran to Kohl's and of course who can just buy ONE thing at Kohl's????

Kenzie had a birthday party that afternoon and looked so cute I just had to snap a picture!!

 We ended up watching a movie Saturday afternoon while the guys fished again - no luck for them, not even a bite!!  Glenn always teases that we're going to have fish for dinner and it never happens!!  One of these times we'll take him up on it and then we won't be eating anything for dinner!!

Sunday morning we all got around early for Rayna's tournament in Parker - I snuck out early to grab coffee again!!  The school was amazing that she played at - a newer school and we enjoyed walking the halls for some exercise and checking it out!!

Here's the gang watching Rayna play!

Unfortunately Rayna's team didn't do so great that day..................but there are many more games to be played!!

We stayed and watched 3 sets of games and finally headed out early afternoon - since it was such a gorgeous day, we stopped at Home Depot and American Furniture Warehouse to get some ideas for the new house........and I found several things that will work out well!!

It was nice to get home and collapse after the busy weekend!!

You sure pack a lot into your weekends! But then you can relax all week as you are retired!
