One Giant Post

It's been a bit since I've posted, so here's one giant catch up post. 
Memorial Day Weekend!
We went to go see the play Once with Paul and Lesley and Paul's mom.  Once is based on a move that came out probably 10 years ago.  It has really great music!  Before the play started, the entire cast was out on the stage singing and playing their instruments.  It was pretty cool!  
Ben and I sneaking a photo before getting yelled at that "no photos are allowed in the auditorium!"

The 5 of us out at intermission.  After the play we grabbed some dinner at The Nickle.  It was a fun evening!

On Memorial Day, we threw together a super last minute day in the park.  We scoped out a great spot at Clement Park in Littleton.  Ben had bought a giant boil pot last year, so it was time we put it to good use!  We had a smorgasbord of friends come- work friends, church friends, the normal friends.  But it was a good time! 

The finished product!  We also made a spicy dipping sauce, which was awesome!  The corn and sausage were surprisingly my favorites!  I'm excited to try crab with this!
Playing some lawn bags

The following weekend, Casey and Melissa came down and we went hiking over at Deer Creek!  It was a gorgeous day.  And the views were awesome!  Sometimes the camera just doesn't do them justice. 
After our hike, we got in some pool time before Ben made his famous pizzas.

For Christmas, Ben and I bought my parents tickets to go see Beauty and the Beast downtown.  I LOVE going to the theatre.  It's one of my favorite things!  My sister and I got tickets as well, and we had a Burcham Family Night of Fun!

The fam!  Apparently this is my new theatre dress....I wore it to Once as well!

The stage. 

The Witters came to town!  It's been a few years since Marcus, Emily, and the kids have made it out.  We went up to Georgetown to ride the train.  It was fun!  The kids especially loved it. 
The whole crew. 
After the train ride, we went to Beau Jo's for pizza.  The rest of the weekend was pretty low key.  Some pool time, some games, and just hanging out!

Father's Day!
For Father's Day weekend, we took my dad to Snooze and then an impromptu hike.  It was a gorgeous day. 
If anyone can pull off sundresses and tennis shoes, we can!



It was a fun time together!
