Busy Busy Busy!

Hey everyone!  I hope everyone is doing well!  I think since we have moved, now you all are getting all the snow!  ha ha!  We haven't gotten much lately, and it's supposed to be up in the high 40's this weekend..which is nice!  It's so funny looking at everyone's posts on Facebook talking about how they don't know how to get out of their neighborhood with the hills..only advice I have is to get an AWD or 4X4 car!  Ha ha!

Anyway, we had some visitors last week and part of this week.  Chris and Lindsay, and our friend Jake came in last Wednesday and stayed until this past Tuesday!  We had a great time!  Just ask them...the weather out here isn't bad at all ;)!  We took them to see the normal Colorado Springs stuff, like the Air Force Academy, Garden of the Gods, breweries (there are plenty of them around here), and also just hung out at the house playing some air hockey and darts.  We also drove up to Winter Park and went tubing!  If you haven't ever been..you have to go!  It's a blast!  When we were leaving the AFA, we saw around 8 deer in the parking lot..it was really cool!

Definitely one of the sights to see around here is the Garden of the Gods.  It is absolutely amazing and just crazy how the rock formations are just right smack in the middle of town.  Here is a pic of Chris and Lindsay there:

You can see the rock formations in the background.
One of the other places to go is the Broadmoor Hotel, which has a bar called The Golden Bee.  At this bar, they can serve you a "yard" of beer.  Yes folks..you saw that right...a yard of beer.  It has it's own holder and it sits on the floor.  
I think he's ready to drink it ;)
Like I said, we had a really good time and we hated to see them go.  I'm sure it will be a while before someone else comes out!! 

Mason was inducted into the Black Belt Club at Taekwondo the other night and I have pictures of him receiving his new uniform from Master J Lee and also his bag full of all the neat things he will use when learning the next part of Taekwondo.  He was so excited!



Not everyone gets invited into the Black Belt Club, so we were really proud of him!  I think that's about it around here.  We have just been staying busy with all our company!  Wish more of yall would come out here...and you can't use snow as the excuse because you all are getting more than we are!!  AND..things don't close around here because of it...ha!

Hope everyone has a great weekend!  Love and miss everyone!
