Since our whole family has been obsessed with baseball lately, we decided it would be fun to take the kids to a Colorado Rockies game while we were in Colorado.
Here we are in front of Coors Field.
Notice how our seats are nice and shaded? The shade lasted all of 15 minutes and then we were in the sun. Then it was HOT, HOT, HOT! Like burning in heck HOT! We lasted until the fourth inning and then decided we were done cooking ourselves. Here's a helpful hint for anyone planning to go to a Rockies Game-don't go to an afternoon game in July! When we got to the car we found out it was 98 degrees-not fun! We were not loyal enough fans to stick it out, I guess.
Jensen with the Presidents of the United States. The people in front of us won a trip to Rapid City so Josh and Holden ended up on the Jumbo Tron briefly. Josh didn't even notice the "presidents" or him being on the big screen.
Holden was fine until they sang the National Anthem and let off fireworks. Then he was terrified and hated all the noise. Can you tell he was hot? The Rockies were playing the KC Royals and ended up losing 16 to 8.
Two days before our trip Ally discovered that there was an American Girl Store in Denver. She had forty dollars saved up and decided she need $100 so she could get a doll. She became my little chore girl for two days straight-that was awesome for me! She even went to Grandma June's house to work for money, too. She ended up with $90.00 and Josh and I were nice enough to donate the rest. So after a half hour of trying to decide, she finally picked "Emily" to come home with her.
Then we drove to our hotel in Colorado Springs and went to visit Garden of the Gods. We just made a quick stop at the Visitor Center and then Josh drove us to Woodland Park to show us his old house.
Yee Haw!
