Christmas in Colorado 2014-AFA and Broadmoor

Steve's nephew Paul got us tickets to see the Air Force Academy basketball game. The kids got to do a fun competition during one of the time out breaks.





















Another highlight was high five-ing the players as they came off the court.























 We looked at the giant gingerbread house at the Broadmoor Hotel.






A walk around the lake outside the Broadmoor.


















Time for a visit with Mrs. Claus and Santa.




















 Lunch at the Golden Bee. Fun and yummy!














Wearing the bees that were thrown onto us.

Christmas in Colorado 2014-The North Pole

We flew in to Denver for our Christmas time visit this year and spent our first day at our friends' Megan and John's house. They just moved to Denver from Minnesota last summer. It was fun to reconnect with old friends.
























It was a long day of travel and a full day of play. Steve's nephew Ryan dropped his truck off at our friends' house for us to drive to Colorado Springs and this is how the kids fell asleep in the backseat on the ride home!


















The next day we went to the North Pole with Aunt Becky.






























I am starting to see a theme here...

Buddy Gets Glasses

Steve noticed that Buddy was having a hard time seeing things and reading things that were far away, so we took him to get his eyes examined. Yup, he needs glasses. Turns out he is near sighted.

 We tried a bunch on.



 What a good looking kiddo!
