Super Saturday

...started with a Pride soccer game at Woodmen Hills park. It was windy and cold.  We tried to set up the tent to block the wind.  It didn't help.  The boys played a great game.  Jacob played goalie the first half, and then defense in the second.  I can't remember the score, but I know they won.

After the game, we ate lunch with Grandpa Wayne at his house.  Afterwards, we headed to Denver for LEGO KidsFest.  There were so many kids and SO many LEGOs.  It was a kids dream come true.  The Big Brick Pile was awesome.  Kids were stepping on the LEGOs to get to the middle of the pile.  Seems wrong to step on them, and it doesn't seem like sitting on them would be very comfortable either, but the kids didn't care.

It was so funny.  William would put one piece on and show John and I. I would then take a picture and he'd leave.  This process occurred several times.  John and I joked that I could make a flip book and William's creation would get bigger and bigger with each flip of a page.

After about 2.5 hours, we left.  We ate at Landry's Seafood.  It was good, and I've always wanted to stop there.  I see it just about every time I go to Denver.  Towards the middle of the meal, Ian started getting hungry and fussy.  I managed to "fix" him long enough to enjoy dinner, but when we left the real fun began. He started crying right away.  At first, I just thought he was hungry.  So we stopped just outside of Denver  at a Safeway and I fed him in the parking lot.  As soon as we left, he started crying again.  We thought he'd give up and stop eventually...nope.  He cried all the way home!!  That was the longest ride of my life.  I knew we'd have to "pay" for taking him with us but I didn't think he'd cry for over an hour and 60+ miles.  Despite the horrible ride home, we had a great time.  The boys were so good, and I'm just happy we were able to take them.
