Go Rockies!

Our first Rockies game of the year was extra special - Jon's mom and stepfather came to visit last weekend and we surprised them with Rockies tickets. Don had a big birthday (happy birthday, Don!) and he loves the Cubbies, who happened to be playing the Rockies at Coors Field. Great game and a fun weekend with family. Spencer got into the action with his Rockies hat, clothes and big floppy finger. He even met Dinger the mascot (from afar...we weren't in the mood to stand on the line that wrapped all around the outfield).

This was Shoshi's first official Rockies game!
Four = the number of runs the Rockies scored in the 8th inning to pull ahead for the win. Sorry, Don!
Our tired little slugger. It was such a long game and went through their naptime but both kids had a blast!
In other news, I am off today (hooray for closed markets on Good Friday!) so I just got back from taking the kids to the zoo. Spencer had his six month dentist visit this morning and we followed the dentist with a mommy, Spency, Shoshi date at starbucks for coffee (me), muffins and yogurt car-pays (spencer's word for yogurt parfait...he can't say f's and swaps the syllables). There's nothing better than a 75 degree friday with the kids!

We're excited for a relaxing weekend. I have an 8 mile run tomorrow (my first half marathon of the spring is next Sunday so this is finally taper time). I've been struggling with lower back pain so I'm not sure how the race will go, but I'm hoping to feel good by next week. Then we're going to a brunch on Sunday with some friends to celebrate bunnies (and everything else you celebrate when overeating and drinking mimosas with friends and family on Easter!). Speaking of which, happy Passover and Easter to everyone.

Hi All!

Love looking at the cute family! Happy birthday, Don and glad you and Vonnie had a fun visit! I know it is not possible but those Moore kids get cuter and cuter. Simon was asking about Spencer , Shoshi and Barkley today. Happy Passover and Easter to all- Happy spring!
