What a day, or should I say, what a journey. We were only gone 57 hours from the time we left the house until when we pulled in last night at 11:45pm, but it seemed like a week!
Yesterday we were up early, hit the hotel gym, (they’re never good) and then went for a walk. Around noon we checked out and went to Ava’s where we parked the truck for the rest of the day. Jag, Lori and I then went to the mall and walked around and grabbed a quick bite to eat. We didn’t want to eat too much as we had dinner 3 hours later. Pearl Street Mall is closed to traffic and is full of restaurants, bars, shops, street musicians and lots of people. Below you’ll see a pic of Jag holding a white boa constrictor!
Ty golfed in the morning and showed up at 3:30, just in time for us to go to dinner.
Dinner was great at Japengo. It’s a sushi restaurant that has other stuff too and 12 of us were there. One of Ava’s grandmas couldn’t stop raving about the boys. She said they’re such good kids and she can see their hearts in who they are. She told me we’re probably used to it, but the way they both treat people and even when walking by Lori, stop to give her a hug, is just precious. They are good boys.
We grabbed an Uber back to Ava’s and then walked over to the events center where CU plays basketball. This ceremony was only 90 minutes which was nice. All the kids walked up and were presented diplomas. Super cool moment. We all met outside after it was over and Jag, Ava, Lori, Ty and I then walked back to Ava’s. After grabbing a diet coke to keep me awake for the drive, Lori and I headed out for home. Ty, Jag and Ava, along with some other friends were headed out to hit the bars. Ava said they were going to hit every bar in town, and then she said, just kidding. She is so sweet, thoughtful, kind and loves Jagger. It’s like they’re already a married couple in the way they treat each other. We love her.
Lots to do today, need to clean up from Ty being here for a couple of days, get our laundry done, go to the gym and get back on clean food. We’ll probably get some flowers too and do some yard work.
Jag and Ava need to pack today as they leave tomorrow afternoon for Los Angeles and then have a flight to Taipei at 12:50am Monday morning and land in Bali on Tuesday. Ty will head up sometime today. I’m sure they’re all sleeping right now.
Here’s some more pics, have a great day and God Bless.

The kids at dinner getting ready to do sake bombs. Those are shots of sake sitting on chop sticks on top of beers. You slam your fist on the table, the sake drops into the beer, and then you slam the beers! oh to be 20 again!
Enjoy your day! We sure will!
