On Friday me and the boys were supposed to meet Mike in town when he got off of work so we could go up to Denver. That morning the Schwan's guy came and I went out to the suburban to grab my purse to pay and realized that my keys where locked in the suburban. (Yes, that was embarrassing!) We are still trying to figure that one out. It isn't supposed to lock when the keys are in the ignition... Anyway, later in the afternoon, Dylan, keeping with his normal way of finding things out the hard way, stuck a screwdriver in an outlet. (He learned about "hot" when he stuck his hand in Nana's Peanut Brittle as she was pouring it on the sheet to cool. He learned about the correct way to jump on the trampoline when he did a flip and hit his mouth on the outer bar, almost loosing his two front teeth) He was pretty upset and it scared the you know what out of me! But within 10 minutes he was running around and playing again. Mike came on home after that, considering I had no way of going anywhere, if something else happened! We dropped Max off and headed up to Denver. We had told the boys that we would eat at Long John Silvers. To some, that may not seem like a huge deal.... But for us and just finding out that they had them here, it was. I had told Dylan all about the "Pirate Store", that's what my sister calls it and her kids love it! Anyway, we get there and it is NOTHING like the one back home, as far as the decorating. It is one of those that is an A&W and LJS. And it was decorated like the 50's. Dylan kept asking, Mom where is the pirate place. Mike thought that that was so funny, btw. Luckily Dylan was hungry and as soon as the food arrived he totally forgot about it. We took the kids back to the hotel and let them swim. Dylan did so well with just his arm wings. He didn't want anyone to hold onto him. He even jumped in a few times too. 
The next day we went to the Nature and Science Museum. It had a lot of things to look at. Mummies, which Dylan and Kristian couldn't wait to see, animals, space exhibits and dinosaurs. We had a good time. 
That night we went to Jacob's Baptism and then over to Tracy's parents house for dinner. We were only going to stay for a bit, but Mike couldn't stop talking. Big surprise I know! I didn't think we were ever going to get out of there. Then yesterday we got up, had breakfast and let the kids swim. Mike and I just sat by the pool. It was very hard for us to just sit there. We are so used to being up doing things, that to just sit there and do nothing was not an easy task, but we managed. ;) We had lunch at the Cheesecake Factory and headed home. We had a great time!!

This week is a four day week and then it will be Spring Break!! Kristian is so ready, as am I! The only thing is Mike has to go to California next week, so it will just be me and the boys! But oh well. A break is a break anyway you look at it.
Well I hope you all have a great week. I will post either at the end of the week or the first of next week. Take care.

That's just the "Goddardness" coming out of Dylan. Following the footsteps of our great great...great uncle Robert Goddard!
