I went to Denver!!


We went to Denver CO for a family get away! The flights were so cheap and Daddy still has hotel priority points from all his past traveling days-that we thought...Why Not?? We stayed west of Denver in western Littleton. Beautiful mountain area! Loved the views! 
Bear Creek Lake Park in Morrison, CO
Denver Zoo with Kirsi and Vadalia-the only sunny day we had all week!
The Dobbins Family! Kirsi, Konlee, and Baby Dalia!
Mommy and Kirsi have been friends since the 3rd grade!
We went to historic Georgetown CO for a train ride into the mountains! Chilly but so beautiful and peaceful!
I was a little bored on the train ride!
We went to Estes Park CO-about a 2 hour drive from Denver-for the annual Duck Days!
Over 5000 rubber duckies are dropped into Fall River and float for about 2 hours into downtown! We adopted a duck for charity! Our money went towards the 8th grade field trip to Washington DC!
There were elk roaming all over the little town, which is at the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park!
Duck Days was the best kids event! They had free face painting and balloon animals! I loved it!
Just the Girls!
Red Rocks Amphitheatre!
Daddy HAS to come back now just to see a show here! He really enjoyed all the musical history!
We met Althea, Oscar, Melissa and Ben Fisher at Casa Bonita-a very famous restaurant in Denver! It is described by a South Park episode as Colorado's version of a Mexican Disneyland! It was AMAZING!
Trying to get all of us to stand still for a group picture in the Mexican Disneyland was near impossible!
We had a great week together in Colorado and my parents described me as their Traveling Rock Star! I was up for anything, never complained during long drives, and was great in the airports and planes!
