A Day in Denver

Last weekend, Jarad and I headed down to Denver to spend the day with my family! I was very excited to see them! Sad, that my Mom was out of town and I wouldn't see her yet, but glad to see the rest of the fam that lives here in CO.

We met up with Kevin & Lori at the Denver Zoo and Lindsey & Dad met up with us a while later. We saw tons of cool animals and had alot of fun. Good idea Kev & Lori!


Peacock- such a beautiful bird! We saw two of them with their feathers fully out.


Flamingos- to me, a strange bird...why would you want to stand on one leg all the time?!


Penquins- I love how they waddle.


Dad, Linds, Lori & Kevin- a little hot and muggy inside the reptile house.


Lori & I & the Elephants- Did you know that they live by a matriarchal order?! Girls rule!!!


The Fam- Linds (why do you look like you aren't even with our group?!), Jar & I (why do I look preggo?!), Dad- flyin' solo since Mom was out of town, Lori & Kev.


Giraffes- my favorite animal and Jar- my favorite husband!

After the Denver Zoo, we cruised through downtown to Coors Stadium for the Rockies vs. Mariners game. Kev snagged our tickets from will-call, we bought some sunflower seeds and drinks from the vendors outside and we were off! We really lucked out though because as soon as we got into the stadium a down-pour commenced! It lasted about 15 minutes or so but then it was nice the rest of the night and we were able to enjoy the game. Thanks to Linds for raiding the bathroom paper towel dispenser so we could have dry seats! There was a little division between the family on who should win- some cheered for the Mariners since we grew up watching them, some have become true Coloradian's and cheered for the Rockies and some of us just enjoyed the game!


Kevin & Lori- Go Rockies!


Jarad & I- lovin' the game!


PLAY BALL!!!


What's a ball game without some greasy food! Hot dogs & Nacho's! Yum!


Sissers- Lindsey & I.
