Elitch Garden's

On Saturday we took my little brothers to Elitch Garden's. For those of you who don't know what that is, its not a garden at all. Its the amusement park here in Denver. It started out as Elitch Gardens. Then it became a Six Flags and they sold it a few years ago and now it's back to just being Elitch Gardens.

Well since Matt is heading to the MTC next week and he didn't get to go to any theme parks while he was in Florida last month he asked if we would take him to Elitch Gardens so he could get his roller coaster fix before he left. A few months ago I won 4 season passes off the radio. So Jared and I used those and we let Matt and Tim use the free tickets we got along with them.

We had such a great time. It was a cold day but the rain held off right until we started our walk back to the car. It was fun to spend the day with my little brothers. We have such a great time together. Cayden even had a blast. Jared rode the kiddie rides with him and every time the ride ended he would say "mo pees" and do his sign language asking to do it again. It was so cute. His favorite ride was the semi trucks. He made a truck noise and honked the horn the whole time. Here are a few pictures from our day.

We even let him buy a lollipop

So worn out after a long day

Me and my little bros

I love helping my little brothers with things. Timmy wanted a fun way to invite a girl to the Mormon Prom. So we decided to go out and buy a create your own puzzle and he wrote a poem on it and then we put the pieces in balloons. He took it over to her house. He knocked and ran and watched. No one answered. He knocked, ran, and watched again. Still no answer. He decided to text her and tell her there was something on her porch and to look for it when she got home. He later received a text from her saying there was nothing there when she got home. SOMEONE HAD STOLEN IT. Timmy called me at 9:00 to tell me. He sounded so sad. So he and my mom came up with this idea...

He delivered them to her house and handed them to her mom. He received a text about 30 min. later saying she would go with him. So in the end it all turned out ok.

Hope everyone has a great week.

~LOVE TO ALL~

Good times at Elitches! It looks really cold there. Cayden is a cutie!

Glad you all had a good time.

Katie, how did you win the tickets? From what radio station? Way to go!

Who would steal something like that? That's just crazy!
