Family

I'm trying to keep the past month in order so unfortunately I am still in the month of October and trying to catch up on the Colorado trip.
October  13-24th
The rest of our trip after Glenwood we spent with family. The majority of the time we spent at Mama Jo's house, aka Steven's mom. Thanks for putting us up! We really enjoyed our visit, we got to spend time with most of the family and all of the immediate family, Mom and Kirk, Dad,  Brian and Mellissa, Becky and Andrew, April and Dan, Mikel, Greg, Sara, David, and Savanna. Along with all our nieces and nephews. Annika, Sharlynne, Taren, Caden,Adaiah, Denver, and Elizabeth. Stevens Grandparents even came down from Idaho to see him, it was a really nice time.
 During that Time we also went to Chucky Cheese with Stevens Dad and the family, Steven got addicted to a maze game and was pretty much the only game he played the whole time we were there, after everyone turned in their tickets we had over 3,000 tickets, which was enough to get all the kids something that they wanted.
A couple days before we left, we took a trip to the Flea Market and walked around, it was a new experience for me because all of these years living in Co and i had never been to the flea market. It was fun we got to spend more time with family and look around at some of the neat things they have there.
Oh and I cant forget to mention the dinner we went to with Stevens Dad and brother Mikel, we went to Landry's seafood restaurant where they have an endless crab legs day. The funny thing is when Steven and his brothers get together it turns more in to competition so during dinner they were racing to see who could eat the most, In the end they ended up eating about 7 lbs each! thats alot of Crab.
Finally the Last Sunday in Co we spent at Stevens Dad's house, we had a mini football party with a bunch of food and family. After all the disappointment of the game, we still had a pretty good time. We didn't let the Broncos horrible game plan ruin our last day with the fam. I was mostly doing homework during the game so it didn't bother me much, but i did manage to fit a pie or two in there, the only sad thing from the trip is that my pies didn't cool off in time to eat before Brian and the families started going back home : ( .  

The pictures are of family from the trip not necessarily in any order, the picture in the top right with Becky, April, Sara and David, is a picture of them making this blog for me :) . The bottom right picture is one of my favorites because it really does give that family like feeling, they were all singing along as Mama Jo played the piano before church on Sunday morning.
