Stacey Weigers and Family

We moved to LoDo (lower downtown Denver) to a Brownstone in May of 2006. Our place is just a couple of blocks from Coors Field and we have enjoyed the “city” life immensely. We love being able to walk just about anywhere. One of the girls’ favorite things to do is freak out the people standing in our doorway…one of them sits at the window and watches for people and the other stands at the intercom for the door…the one at the window tells the other what a person is wearing and the one at the intercom says, “You in the red shirt…step away from the green door…quickly and no one gets hurt!” People jump and look around and the girls just laugh and laugh…too funny! It’s been a lot of fun living here…come visit any time!


Stacey - I just completed my certification for teaching Yoga and am in the process of setting up my own practice. Right now I am doing a “Heart of Service” teaching yoga twice a week at the People House in Denver. I also do private yoga lessons. In addition to teaching yoga, I am also a certified herbalist and am thinking of ways I can incorporate my herbal knowledge with yoga. When I am not doing yoga I can be found riding my bike, playing tennis, yelling at the dog to stop trying to scratch her way into the TV, taxi-ing the kids here, there and everywhere, or hanging out with my boyfriend, John.

Hanna just finished the 8th grade and is an accomplished flutist—she was in the Honors recital; received a 1 (the highest) on her ensemble and solo pieces at the State Federation. She also placed 3rd in the Continental Math League competition. This spring she played soccer for the first time and was on the LAX team. In June she will join some of her 8th grade classmates for a 3-week trip to Russia! She is looking forward to high school and after much deliberation has decided to go to Middlesex School in Concord, Massachusetts. What an exciting adventure!

Lizzy just finished 6th grade. She plays the harp and is getting quite good. She is also a published writer…having won a nationwide poetry contest for young poets. Also, she was asked to submit two poems to the literary publication at her school, Colorado Academy…quite an honor. You can find her work in “A Celebration of Young Poets” and … Her favorite subject is Spanish and though she doesn’t love her teacher, she loves the language. This spring she participated in the Circus at school and was a featured artist on the Spanish Web. She also played LAX and is looking forward to playing lots of tennis this summer.
