Water weekend

Last week was one of the most stressful that I've had in a while due to work, school, and supervising the Health Fair at the hospital, so we were lucky to have some family and friends in the area for a few days. Shannon's parents arrived on Saturday and stayed with us until Wednesday. One of the things that they are great about when they visit is to let Shannon and I get out of the house for one evening. Coincidentally, some of my friends from high school were in town Saturday night so we went out to dinner with them while her parents watched Grant. In short, I haven't laughed that hard in a while, and just like that, the stress was gone. It was a perfect start to a nice couple of days.

Sunday was the big event... Grant's baptism. I was afraid that he might cry at some point but everything went well.

On Tuesday, Shannon and I both took the day off from work and we had a day of fish... We all went to eat sushi for lunch (all-you-can-eat, yum!) and then it was off to the Denver Aquarium. We had never been to the aquarium before because we had not heard stellar reviews however everyone really liked it and it ended up being a lot of fun.

It was a great couple of days that went by too fast, but we all had a wonderful time.
