Anniversary Weekend Recap

We are back from our anniversary weekend in Denver. It was fun while it lasted! Unfortunately, we didn't get to do as much as we had planned, but that is usually the case with us. We got a late start leaving on Saturday because J woke up with a head cold. It's never fun to have a head cold... especially when you have to go over the pass!

We made it to Denver at around 3, so we only had three hours before the Rockies game. We grabbed a bite to eat because we hadn't had lunch and then checked into our hotel. We stayed at the Courtyard Marriott in Downtown Denver, which is a great location to walk along the 16th Street Mall and to Coors Field.

We had such a fun time at the game, even though it started raining during the 7th inning. Here are a few pics from the night.

These first three pics cracked me up... talk about peer pressure! They are ads from Shane Co. Jewelers.



^Tom Shane says, "Ask Her Already"


^Getting engaged? Check out Tom's rock pile
^If you don't ask her, she can't say "Yes"

^Our seats were 4 rows up just behind the left fielder
(As I was taking pictures, a home run almost beaned me. The guy in front of me got it... let's just say I ended up with a bit of beer on me.)
^According to J, the left fielder for Arizona is nicknamed "The Big Donkey"... he apparently is a big home-run hitter.
^This pic is more about the girl behind us in the IOWA shirt. She was completely wasted, yelling and dancing... there is always extra entertainment at sporting events.
^Us... after the rain matted my hair a bit. Don't we look happy?

Shopping post tomorrow... stay tuned!
