On Monday we decided to head to the water park in Golden. It really is amazing - operated by the city and a really fun outing for the kids. Even the "big" kids got into the action...Patrick and Maggie had races on the water slides during adult swim. Sibling rivalry never ends...
On Monday evening, Uncle Jim and Lizzy headed back to Indianapolis. Before we left we tried to get a photo of the whole family. We managed to capture a couple but of course everyone wasn't great in every shot. Never with 10 people and especially children involved!
After they left, we headed to downtown Golden to walk along Clear Creek and have ice cream. During our walk, Drew and Allen ran ahead on the path. Drew got stung on the leg by a yellow jacket. As Patrick was tending to him and trying to calm him down the rest of us walked ahead. Next thing we knew, Allen got stung on his leg! So we took the boys back to the house and Grandma, Grandpa, Auntie Maggie and Katherine went ahead and had their ice cream. The boys were completely traumatized but eventually calmed down with the help of some popsicles. I did catch these photos before the bees ruined our night!
On Tuesday morning we said goodbye to Auntie Maggie and Katherine, Patrick left to play 36 holes of golf with his best man from our wedding, and Grandma and I took the boys to the Museum of Nature and Science. The boys loved the dinosaur exhibit and the special Real Pirates exhibit. We definitely did not see everything and will make a point to go back on our next visit.
