We wanted to try something new for lunch and got the great idea to head over to Arvada to check out School House Kitchen and Libations. Old Towne Arvada was nuts with people everywhere. Of course, if we would have paid even just a bit of attention to the news we would have known the new train line from downtown to Arvada was opening today and the city was having a big ol’ party. What a bunch of dopes!

We finally found parking and snagged a seat in the bar. School House Kitchen is an old converted school house and it’s a bit kitschy, but also a bit cool and fun. We all thought our meals were ok, but we had a blast people watching and following the NFL draft. 

After B’s party at the kitchen that evening, we headed over to Echo for pizza for dinner. Sarah joined us while her parents attended a fundraiser. We love Echo and always talk about how we need to go there more often. Sarah wasn’t so sure at first but she quickly became a fan like the rest of us!

While Gwyneth and Sarah were drawing pictures upstairs, Annabelle helped me sort through the 100 tiles that were painted the previous weekend. She sorted and I packaged. That girl is speedy! I could barely keep up with her!

Mitch and Connie stopped in to pick up Sarah after their fundraiser and delivered us a big ol’ basket of goodies. Of course we busted right in and enjoyed a bottle of wine and luckily they stuck around to enjoy it with us. It was a fun night and we probably all stayed up a little too late, but it was too much fun to call it quits early.
