Armando and Lindsey's wedding on Halloween in Vegas

So, this was quite an adventure and very exhausting but a very cool wedding. We stayed at Paris on the Vegas Strip. Wedding was at Viva Las Vegas Chapel, reception at the Platinum Hotel (gorgeous suite) and walking the strip afterwards. Very pretty and memorable. Lindsey looked amazing and we enjoyed the masquerade aspect too! It really was fun, but a little too much for some of us old folk! :)

Bachlorette party in Vegas 2009

Let me name all the storybook characters first:
Tonya-Snow White
Jenny-Dorothy
Lindsey-Little Miss Muffet
Becky-Little Bo Peep
Belinda-Alice In Wonderland
Marta-Little Red Riding Hood

For Lindsey and Armando's wedding we went to Vegas and this is the Bachlorette party. We went to Encore for dinner at Society. Limo ride to Chippendale's, very nice. And Limo ride to Blush nightclub at Wynn. Lots of drinks and a walk back to Paris and we were home. Remember-what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.

Colorado Snow day in October

Mason and Lily were off of school for 3 days due to this massive storm that dumped about 26" in our yard and neighborhood. Mason missed his Halloween party at school but sure had fun in it!

Goth Party for Halloween

Our friend's Fernando and Isney had a Goth inspired Halloween/Birthday party and we lwt the kids stay up late and party. I dyed my hair for something new and a series of festivities...it is very dark. But appropriate for this!

Pumpkin Patch 2009

So the small intimate Chatfield/Botanic Gardens Pumpkin Festival has become somewhat of a crazy mess! There were way too many people, it was a little hot (80) for October, and expensive! Not to mention, there was a freeze/hail early in the season and very wet summer and many of the pumpkins were damaged. From afar it looked great and picturesque but as we got closer it was a field of rot and decay. We barely got to pick out 2 "fair" ones. I am hoping for a better lot at another patch later this week when I take the daycare kids. The kids had fun though and did not really notice all the drawbacks their parents did. Life is so much brighter when you are a kid!
