Weekend in Denver

Jeff and Josh found tickets to game 1 of the Denver/Jazz game in Denver. So Friday night we decided to fly out on Saturday and go to the game. It worked really well cause Grandpa Guy is out in Denver and we have great friends living out there.

Josh called Mark and Kandice and they were so gracious and invited us to stay there and also offered to pick us up at the airport. THANK YOU MARK & KANDICE!! We just felt bad we couldn't stay longer.

We spent some time at Fat Cats, bowled and ate pizza - then we headed to the game.
It was fun the Jazz hung in there - until the last 6 minutes of the 4th quarter.


In the arena, the fans weren't too bad, the usual comments. We had a good time.
Then we walked out on the streets to find our car.... it was HORRIBLE! We couldn't believe how inhuman the Denver fans were acting. They were saying all kinds of things about Utah, our religion, and lets face it we were 6 of the maybe 18 Jazz fans there among the 18,000 Denver fans.
On top of all of it, we couldn't remember which way we parked so we are walking around like idiots! With all the traffic congestion, people were walking by us saying things, rolling down their windows scream obcinities at us - which is fine, but I have an 8 year old boy with me. Truthfully I know Brayden has heard the F*** word out of my mouth a few times. So it isn't like he hasn't heard it, but what grown man laughs and jumps around us screaming it to an 8 year old boys face! So after what felt like an eternity of being persecuted we find Grandpa and his truck. PHEW!

We headed to our car, which luckily Grandpa remembered where it was.
We drove home to Mark and Kandice's cute apartment and talked and went to bed.
Mark & Kandice - that guest bed was the most comfortable bed Josh and I have ever slept on! I don't know if it was just that it was 2 am and we were exhausted, but that bed was heaven! Thank you sooo much!!

We needed to catch a flight at 10:45 am, so we got up around 7 ish and began getting ready. Mark and Kandice were already up and making breakfast! Kandice thank you so much for the yummy breakfast and for your sweet hospitality! Such a perfect hostess!
Love you guys!
