Ethan's Suite #286

Last week my mom called. She asked, "Do you have any plans Saturday night?" I reply, "Why?" She responds, "Just wondering if you would like to come to the Broncos game." At that point even if we did have plans, we didn't anymore. Going to a Broncos game with my parents means private suite (well you do have to share it with ten of your friends) with catered drinks, dinner and dessert. "No plans Mom, we will go with you to the game!"


Saturday night arrived and we walked up to the stadium thinking this was going to be awesome!


Within seconds after entering the stadium I started to have flashbacks to the Rockies game. And this picture in particular. (Mom click on the word, this. Not that one. The one highlighted in orange. Love you!)

Excited Screaming Broncos Fans = Scared Screaming 4 Month Old

We thought we only had two options. We could either turn around and go home, or take turns spending the game in the quiet hallway outside suite #285.


Then magically a third option was brought to our attention. The room next to ours was empty!

Empty Private Suite = Sweet!

So we headed next door. Shut all of the windows, which shut out all of the noise. Then Aaron and I got to watch the game with a very happy baby- if you couldn't tell we are a little obsessed with him.


And every once in a while we would get visitors or waves from next door.


We missed our new boy Tim Tebow, but other than that the night could not have gone better!

Go Broncos!

Also, Go Dad for providing us with some great Saturday night entertainment! And Dad, in case you were wondering we are free next Saturday too ;)

Our Favorite!

Every Summer we look forward to one event more than any other. The Chalk Art Festival! It wasn't our first, nor our second, not even our third time going. This year was the fourth year in a row that Aaron and I have been.



I have to say though that this time I walked away a little disappointed.

It may have been due to the rain. Although it brought out two cool rainbows.




Or the fact that Gelazzi our favorite gelato place had closed down and moved to Houston. At least they had a little stand so we were still able to get a yummy treat.




Although as I look back at the photos we took I am not really sure why I was disappointed, because there were some pretty cool drawings.




Now of course the highlight of the night was sneaking into the Kids Corner, stealing chalk, and making our own creation. We have always done our hand prints. This year with the new addition to the family we traced the new hand (Well we pretended to trace his hand. Also Sorry your E is pink Ethan, it was the only chalk we could find.)




And now I will leave you with a photomontage of my son, because who wouldn't want to stare at him all day :)

You're Never Too Young for a Concert, Right?

*Recent posts havent exactly made us look like parents of the year. I'm not sure this post will help us win any awards either. But maybe someday it will help make Ethan think that we are cool parents ;)

Saturday Aaron, Ethan, and I headed down to 16th Street to check out Denver's Art Festival. It was a lot of fun!

Here are a few pieces that we thought were pretty cool...

Todd VanFleet was my favortie artist. I loved the bikes!

Rick and Linda Bachman were Aaron's favorite. He loved the clocks!

Well not only was the Art Festival going on downtown, it was also Denver's Day of Rock. There were bands playing all along 16th. So after checking out the art and getting a little dinner we decided to check out the free Five For Fighting concert.

Well it turns out that Ethan isn't a Five For Fighting fan. This was Ethan's face the entire time. I think he may have been scared for his life. So we didn't get to stay for the entire show, just long enough to listen to a few good songs.

It was a fun Saturday. I think we may wait a few years before we take Ethan to another concert :)
