Over a year ago....

I can't believe it was over a year ago that my closest friend, Jen graced Colorado with her presence. We are the type of friends that don't have to see each other to know exactly what is going on in one another's lives. We talk on the phone at least every other day or more! Now even though we have so much fun keeping in touch via our cell phones, we do get to enjoy or short visits together. Monday afternoon and all day yesterday Kallie, Jen and I got to spend time together. She is visiting all of Northern Colorado in three weeks or at least that's what it seems like. I missed her bachelorette party and bridal shower the weekend before last so I was beyond super stoked to get to put some time aside for ourselves. Mat was so nice as to give Jen and I monday night to ourselves we enjoyed dinner at Olive Garden and then walked around Chapel Hills Mall. We stopped in at Burlington Coat Factory and found some really cute socks because we were going to go bowling. It ended up being closed so we went out for drinks at Old Chicago with Mat, Cory, Lorna and Bill (Lorna's brother).
On Tuesday we decided to go to Cheyenne Mountain Zoo for the morning it was so nice. I think Jen enjoyed spending time with Kallie, they were so fun to watch together. I think their time on the carousel was the highlight of our morning. I hope you enjoy the pictures, as usual there are a few of Kallie freaking out because of the animals.
















In the afternoon Mr. Biggs was actually open so Mat, Kallie, Jen and I went bowling and we got to wear our socks after all. We had bought a pair for Lorna but since we didn't go the night before and Lorna was on her way to Denver we didn't get a picture of the three of our socks...Jen has one but I forgot my camera on Monday night.









I brought Jen's bridal bouquet for her to see. She'd been asking about it and I'd told her I wouldn't put pictures up until it was done, and while I haven't finished it completely, like putting the ribbon on it, the actual flower part is done. So I was very excited to show her an almost final product.





Here we are! Kallie couldn't miss the photo opt either. (Thanks Mat for taking them for me)



This was Kallie's goodbye to Auntie Jen, she gave her some eskimo kisses and then sealed it with a "kitty cat" kiss.




Jen it was so good to see you and I'm glad to have made it up to the Springs to meet you! I hope you had as much fun I as I did and I can't wait till November! I miss you already!!!!!
