Denver
I recently flew to Denver to spend some time with 'Netta & Bobby and their family. Dominick and Gabe remembered me, but Alana was a bit wary of me at first(but she was soon letting me hold her and play with her). Anyway, I got set up in their basement(which I loved because it was nice and cool down there) and then we got ready for a BBQ that night. Carolyn and Joe Harris came to the BBQ, along with their grown kids Ryan(and his wife & 2 girls), JR(and his son) and Jordan(who is 6'10" ). The other boys couldn't make it(she had 7). I used to babysitt for Carolyn and Joe when I was in jr high and high school! 'Netta & Bobby had just bought the grill that day so they got to break it in with all of us! It was fun chatting with everyone! After the kids were in bed that night, 'Netta, Bobby and I sat down for a game of Phase 10(my favorite game). I got behind on phases but I was able to make a come back and win(even up by one phase). So I was feeling pretty good about myself! The next day I played in the backyard with the kids. They have a little house and sand area to play in. I took the family to lunch at Olive Garden(yummy) and then we went to a small water park(no slides or tubes, just water squirting out and up). Dominick and Gabe were having fun in the water, but Alana would have none of it! I thought it felt good to be in the water on such a hot day! Then that night we did some park-hopping. We eventually went to Carolyn and Joe's place to see them. Then we went home and played the waiting game. Mandy and the kids were supposed to arrive sometime that night, but they didn't get in until about 2am. The next day I played some more with the kids outside and then it was time for me to go. We all piled in the Suburban to the airport! I loved hanging out with 'Netta and her family!! It was also fun to have Mandy and the kids there for that short time while I was there!
