Best Game of Catch

Icon had a "Diving for Dollars" incentive where the reps dove for coins in the pool. We got to come watch and also have a pool party, complete with BBQ! It was a lot of fun! I didn't know we could swim too, so Brook had swim in her onesie, but she wasn't too embarrased :).


She loves playing with Ben and she is so brave- look at her little face in this picture!

Anyways, while there, she got a sweet game of catch going with our buddy, Chris P. She's a natural! I still want her to prefer my hobbies, but I think this kid is going to rock the athletic world! Especially if Daddy or Aunt Emma have anything to say about it!

Card Sharks

My sisters and I enjoy a good game of nerts every once and again. When they were here last week, we got our game on almost all weekend long!
Here's a few photos-you can see how obsessed we were!
The game we played the most was Nerts. You can see on this last picture that we kept a tally sheet of everyone's score. I shall now post the totals:

Benjamin: 338 points, 5 wins


Dena: 861 points, 14 wins


Heather: 601 points, 9 wins


Becky: 531 points, 6 wins


Stacy: 465 points, 6 wins

1st Day in Town

So on the Douglass' first day in town, we headed down to Denver to enjoy the sights! There are so many fun things to see here, we couldn't wait to show everyone around! We saw the giant bear (posted in previous postings), the capitol building, and Coors field! We walked down the 16th street mall and went to the top of the Hyatt for a cool view. It was so much fun!


To top it all off, we got to go to Rodizio's Grill in downtown Denver! This place is probably the Douglass family favorite. Seriously.... it's amazing. I just had to document the occassion. Everyone stuck their heads in for a great group photo!

About two mili-seconds after the shutter snapped, Grandpa starts yelling "Woah, woah, woah!!!" We're all like... Grandpa... what's going on?!?!? Would you like to guess what we found? Let's take a Closer look at the group photo, shall we?

We don't call her Butch for nothin!
