Red Rocks

Since Mase woke up super grumpy last Sunday ( due to teething), we opted to skip church and go for a drive , instead. Since the other three M's hadn't been to Red Rocks park and amphitheater, I thought it'd be a fun place to explore. We dosed Mase up with some Tylenol, loaded up the car and set out. Unfortunately, the grumpies didn't go away for Mason and soon infected all of us, cutting our trip short. But at least we tried, right?  And the steep incline going up was good for the glutes- an added bonus- I did it with Mason in my arms.

Notice those grumpy faces? This was the only pic I took in the amphitheater . You can see how excited they were for a picture.

After we drove home ( It's less than an hours drive) , we put Mase to bed and I took Mack to Claire's to pick out some new earrings and for an ice cream. She could have bough the entire store- a little girls dream!

Two days prior, Duncan had run out the back door as I was letting the dogs out for the night. As it goes, it was pouring rain ( something that is happening a lot here, oddly). We searched for him daily and posted signs . Sunday evening I decided to go for a short walk while Mike bathed the kids . I called for Duncan as I went. Shortly after I got home, I peeked my head out , called for him one more time and started cleaning up the dinner dishes. That's when I heard his tiny little "meow". Ours was a happy house right then.

And this was the scene after the kids were in bed.
