Radiation & Date Nights Galore

Last week, Scott started radiation. His first day was wintery and cold. I actually left for a massage while he had radiation done, as the first session was going to be the longest (he wasn't done when I got back!). Besides radiation, last week was just absolutely fantastic!

Thursday, we were treated to dinner at Ocean Prime in Denver. Talk about the most savory meal we've ever had! The chef chose everything for us. The dessert wasn't even on the menu and made just for us! Our server was the most amazing person, treating us like royalty. When I tried to tip him, he refused! Scott even tried my fish and like it. He really wants to go back there again. It was such a memorable evening, one I will not forget.






On Saturday, Scott and I went to the Melting Pot and afterwards, we watched the Colorado Springs Philharmonic Orchestra - both of these were bucket list items. It was our first fondue experience and it was amazing! I had them put roses and candles at our table to set the atmosphere, a gesture Scott appreciated! The orchestra was just beautiful and tears came to my eyes during part of it. It was nice to share these moments with Scott. Just him and I.



Better still, was a date night with the kids. What's even better? A limousine ride!

Through some really awesome orchestrations, friends arranged for a limo to pick us up, take us out to eat at Back East Bar & Grill, and then, with a police escort, take us to Transiberian Orchestra!! This was just absolutely so cool!

During the ride, Jacey got a bit weepy and emotional. She understands the gravity of the situation and knows why people are doing all these kind things. I think it just overwhelmed her a bit.

The night was just amazing. Jack, our limo driver, was just an absolute sweetheart! He helped to get our tickets all together and even closer to the stage. Tammy and Crystal just rocked orchestrating the whole evening. It was all just magical. Tammy even hung pictures inside the limousine! Officer Edmundson was so awesome to offer his services by providing the police escort. The kids were just in awe of it all!















Perhaps the most unbelievable thing to happen this evening, though, is Melayna falling asleep through all the noise (guitars, pyrotechnics, etc).
