"Running of the Chickens"

Every time we went to check on the Chickens they would really try and get out(and have escaped a couple of time), and since the weather was a little bit warmer we figured we would let them out on Saturday.  We let Michael's family know since a lot of the kids like to chickens and said we would have the annual running of the chickens on Saturday afternoon.  Quite a few showed up haha always a good time with family.







The boys looking at the frogs.  They sure can be good friends


That night we went up to Rob and Katie's and watched Caleb so they could go to Katie's sisters dance recital.  He is such a fun cute kid!


Getting ready for bed, love getting cuddles from this one, even if it only happens when he has a bottle


Denver

Michael's closet cousin Tyler has been living in Texas and now Denver and we have always wanted to visit him, but just haven't  been able to make it work.  One of Michael's favorite bands was going on a reunion tour and preforming in Denver.  Michael and Tyler have also been to see this band together a lot so it was a perfect opportunity. LJ hopped on board too, Dan couldn't make it because he had his CPA tests to study.

MXPX concert.  With Mike(the lead singer)




Front row at the concert!!! First time in a mosh pit--crazy...got hit and kicked pretty hard haha all the joys 


We drove out the "THE STANLEY HOTEL" where Steven King wrote "THE SHINNING" and then went to a Rocky Mountain National Park  It was a crappy weather drive and when we stopped this was on the tire.  Sweet formation

TONS of wildlife as we drove through the park



We were told about a drive to an amazing view....well this is the view...yup I seem to have bad luck with view and fog.
