Ft Collins Games

We arrived in Ft Collins with a little time to spare before heading out to Aleah's soccer game!!  She has come a long ways since last year and we enjoyed watching her play - in the COLD I should say!  It was SO windy out and the sun was down enough that it wasn't hitting us and we were darn cold watching that game!  Poor Robby hadn't even brought a coat!  I guess the team stayed warm running around!


I was up early the next morning so went for a walk - the trees are all turning in Ft. Collins and are gorgeous!!  It's fun seeing the hardwoods up here as we don't have those in the mountains!


Glenn needed to go shopping for some long underwear bottoms and some camouflage pants for hunting!  He took off and was excited when he came back as he actually found what he was looking for - well, not really - when we got home, I looked at the box of long underwear before I opened it and he had bought the top, not the pants.............so a quick look at Amazon to get some bottoms ordered and sent before he left!!

We met the Keppys at the pumpkin patch that afternoon and a separate blog will come next on that!!  But Jill and I had run out that morning also because she had called World Market and THEY DID have in Clearly Canadian - the girls (and I guess me too) used to drink that when the girls were in high school!!!  Apparently it went by the wayside in the US but has now made a comeback and Jill wanted to surprise Jessi with it!!  For some reason, it didn't excite me as much as what it did many, many years ago!!  And yes, the price has more than doubled!


WOW was the sky pretty that evening!!  We almost missed it!

 Sunday I took Aleah to her birthday movie and we saw "Leap" - and we both loved it!!  It was about dancing and both Aleah and I love to dance so it was the perfect movie!!


Late afternoon we went to Parker's ballgame - he has certainly improved since last year and hit the ball several times!!  It's fun to watch those little guys play!!

Unfortunately his game went later than expected so by the time we got back to Jill's and grabbed a quick bowl of chili, it was already getting dark and neither one of us like to drive in the dark!  But Glenn did just fine and we made it home, tired but happy from our 5 day trip!!
