The kids in their own booth: PRICELESS!

It's been a while...
After Dylan was fully recovered Mick and I needed a break! So we met Kim in Frisco and she took the boys for the weekend. We stayed at Ryan and Tanya's cabin in Breck and relaxed! On Saturday night we drove to the Springs for Chris' birthday party. That was a lot of fun. On Sunday we met up with Kim, Brandon and all the kids in Breck and went to the Snow Sculpting. It was so cool!
Kris (what he wants to be called now...) had another awards assembly last month. It was Casino themed. They had "shows" from Britney Spears, Christina Agulera, Blue Man Group, Elton John, etc.. It was so much fun. The teachers work themselves to the core to put all of it together. After the awards were presented they set up poker tables, black jack tables, a "boxing ring", and the teachers even walked around like cocktail waitresses taking their drink/snack orders while they were playing games. They won prizes based on how many chips they had left at the end. He had a blast!
Rebecca came over for a sleepover. I can't even remember when the last time was... The next day we met up with Tracy and Jacob and took the kids to see Hotel for Dogs. It was a cute movie. Afterwards me and Dylan went and watched Rebecca at gymnastics. She did really good!!
Kim and the kids came down and spent the last weekend of January with us. I was having a girl's day out and she came to join in the fun. We went and saw "New In Town" and then went out for dinner after. We had a great time. There ended up being 8 of us total. It was a lot of fun and the movie was HILARIOUS! One part I had tears from laughing so hard!
Rebecca turned 5 on Feb. 6th!!! I can't believe it. They grow up way too fast. She had her party at a pottery place. The kids were able to pick something out and paint it. Dylan picked a dragon, big surprise I know! He painted it black, with a little bit of red mixed in every once in a while. You had to paint it 3 times and let it dry in between. He did really well. I am anxious to see how it turns out.
This past weekend (V-Day) I met Kim on Friday and picked up the kids for the weekend. Her and Brandon went to BlackHawk and did really good!! (there are casinos there..) Saturday, Jen and Geno came out. It was good to visit with them and play games. We haven't had a chance to see them much lately with everything going on. I picked up heart shaped pizzas from Papa Murphy's. Sunday we drove back up to Denver to meet Kim and Brandon. We went to Casa Bonita's. I must say... I don't think we will be going back there... It is neat to go check it out, but ridiculous what you pay for what you get... I made a comment to Kim that we should've went to Dave and Busters and a lady over heard me. She said yep it would've been a much better choice huh? Apparently I wasn't the only one who felt that way. Although the kids enjoyed it and me and Kim made our own fun... So it wasn't all bad. :)
Our weekdays have seemed nothing but a blur. Between, school, work, everyday tasks and Mick going to school, there really is anything else to talk about. Mick is working his butt off trying to get his degree. He works all day and then Monday and Thursday evenings are spent with meetings, Tuesday is class and the other nights he is doing homework. Tomorrow night is his last class for his Project Management Course and then he will start a new one next week. But once he is done it will all be worth it!
Dylan is fully recovered from his surgery. He EATS ALL THE TIME!! He finishes a meal and then asks for a snack. We joke that he grazes all day! He is home sick today. Fever, chills, aches... I swear every time we go to Chuck E Cheese (I met Kim there on Friday) someone gets sick!! We are three for three, the last couple of times we have went, so I don't think we will be going back!
Well I suppose that is it from here. Hope everyone is doing well. Until next time..
