Alice, Art History, and Haircuts for all...

Today was our lazy morning day. Unfortunately I was unable to sleep in this morning due to Jesse's alarm clock, but Cody managed to get some extra winks. We were nice enough to let Jesse have the car today, so we took the bus downtown. We had lunch @ a 50's diner greasy spoon burger joint. Then headed over to the Pavillions to see Alice in Wonderland in 3D. We both enjoyed the movie, but we both agreed that the 3D in this movie was mediocre and not really necessary. Our recommendation is to see the movie, but you wouldn't be missing much if you skipped the 3D on this one.

Next up was the Colorado History Museum. The History Museum is moving locations starting at the end of this month, so it was free to get in. Unfortunately most of their exhibits were all packed up already. We did manage to see and exhibition of a local artist who painted murals in several Denver buildings in the early 1900s.

Cody always manages to find something to ride.

Really Really Big Murals.

This picture was to demonstrate how nice it was out today. Temps in the 60s, before the temperature drops and the blizzard hits us. *Blizzard predicted to hit tonight, temps expected to drop 30 degrees and a possibility of 10+ inches of snow. Boo!

Before... Shag City!

After... Shortness Relief.

Haircuts all around.
Jesse and I both had appointments to get our shaggy locks shaved down this evening. I asked Cody if he was interested in getting a haircut to and his mom told me to try to talk him into it, but he seemed hesitant. That is until he saw my cut and Jesse was setting in the chair. $16 for a shampoo, cut, and massage? Hmm... I tried to get him an appointment on the PureTalent side of the salon (the side with the stylist in training), but they were all booked up so last minute. The only available stylist charged $40 a cut, a little out of Cody's price range, but today must have been his lucky day. She said she would cut his hair for $16 a far cry from the $40. And so it came to pass that the 3 of us all chopped off our lovely locks. Since we were all looking so spiffy I figured we should commemorate this experience with a picture.
