3 Day Weekend




Happy Memorial Day! This weekend was a crazy one for our Kenley bean. In Boulder, every Memorial Day weekend they have the Boulder Creek Festival which consists of hundreds of vendors setting up tents including everything from face painting, to homemade jewelry, to the Boulder Atheists and even The Sham-Wow (which I purchased...I'll let you know how it works). There are also carnival rides, funnel cakes and roasted sweet corn - the best of everything! We had planned to meet up with 8 of our friends and their kids (14 of us in total) at the festival on Sun after church but of course as soon as we parked it began to rain. Matt, being the eternal optimist, was convinced it would pass but, alas, after an hour of seeking shelter under a tent trying to sell us liposuction and botox, we finally gave up. Instead we: went home and dried off, met everyone for "lunch" at 3:00, went to a movie at 5:00, went back into Boulder and met the Boccis for dinner at 7:30. All in all, Kenley was out and about almost 12 hours. Today, we made our second attempt at hitting up the festival and this time with success! We met Ned, Molly and the kids and got to partake in some delicious roasted corn and, as previously mentioned, purchased ourselves a Sham-Wow. From there we headed to the Boccis to finish celebrating Memorial Day with some mexican food and Nuggets basketball.
