Denver

We went to Denver for our annual Chargers game, and it did not dissappoint. We dropped Luke and Hailey off at my parents, and Abigail and Carly off at Ben's parents. Picked up my brothers, and we were off. I always look forward to any Road trips, they're my favorite, no matter where we're going. This one was especially great... no kids, and hanging out with Ben, Brent, and Jed all weekend. A few people have asked why we go to Denver instead of San Diego to watch the Chargers, well, it's because you can get half priced tickets at the Broncos stadium. Also, since the seats are so high up, they're pretty cheap.

My cousin and his wife, Austin and Shawnee, live just outside of Denver, so we stayed with them the first night. It was so great to hang out with them! There was a lot of laughing and eating, what could be better than that?!

We had the same crew as last year, my brothers and us. Next year we're hoping to find 8 people to go, since we have to buy tickets in groups of 4.

The weather was perfect! Which I was so thankful for. I am such a sissy when it comes to the cold.


In front of the stadium

See how high up we were? 5 rows from the top. Luke wanted to know why he didn't see us on tv during the game. Ya, why don't they bring cameras to the top?

We all had to have a picture in front of the field

I feel a little bit safer in cheering for the Chargers while having a Broncos fan in our group.



It was a close game, but the Chargers prevailed... 24 - 29
We stopped in Rock Springs for some Grubs. Ben and Brent have never been before, and everybody needs to go to Grubs once in their life.

Trying to look awesome with a mouthful of burger.
