My brother, Dave, and his son, Andrew, came out for a quick visit! We picked them up at the airport, played in Castle Rock for an hour, then jumped on the train and headed to the Rockies Game. Emma and Myles stayed with a friend. Luke loved the extra attention, especially when it came to being with his older cousin. We stopped at Machete Tacos for a bite before the game. It came recommended from a friend and Bryan had taken the 14 and 15-year-old boys from church here. I was shocked! Lets just say I wasn't going to be surprised if both of the boys woke up with nightmares. Poor Andrew, with eyes wide open, kept saying, "This is creepy!" Yes, yes it is! Tacos were delish though. :) It was the perfect night for a game and we enjoyed great seats. Unfortunately, the Rockies couldn't pull off a victory, but we still had a great time. We took the train back and made it home close to midnight. We were all a little tired!
Nice, kid friendly coloring sheet!
HELL-O!
Uhhh, creepy was just beginning to describe this place! "Making Memories!"
The next morning, we hiked "Castle Rock Mountain," as the kids like to call it. We spotted several lizards, lots of cactus (cacti?) and scrambled on the rocks. The temps soared quickly, making the decision to stop for slurpees on the way home a no brainer. After a nutritious lunch of Freddy's, I put Myles down for a nap while Dave and Andrew shopped the outlet malls. We took them to the airport that afternoon to catch their flight out. It was such a quick, but great trip. We loved having them visit!
Can you spot which one of these kiddos didn't have the late night???
Myles buddied right up to Dave.
Emma somehow worked her way into the backpack. Sneaky, sneaky little girl.
Still cracks me up about machete. Never picked up on the creepiness. Just think it's more Day of the Dead than fiesta decor.
