Fun Times with KALI!!!!

Kali came to visit Dave and I this weekend and we had a blast! Or at least I had a great time and I think Kal did too:)

The weekend started out on Friday evening, Michael drove Kali to Castle Rock and we met up to exchange the 'package'. Kali and I drove back to D-town, but first stopped for food. We went to Chick-Fil-A then did a little shopping at Target. Kali helped me with laundry when we got home as well as making muffins. We watched most of Hook, then called it a night.

On Saturday we decided since it was such a beautiful day that we were going to go to the Denver Zoo. It was gorgeous outside with the perfect temperature to be outside walking around. At the Zoo, we saw hungry hyenas, back flipping otters, show-worthy seals and sea lions, a 48 year old elephant that did tricks, a young gorilla drinking his own pee (yuck!), lots of felines that reminded us of our precious Asher, as well as some stinky rhinos and hippos. It was a great trip to the Zoo and we spent about 3 1/2 hours there! The pictures below show how small Kali is compared to an Asian elephant, Kal photographed the baby giraffes we saw running around, and 'how far can you jump' showed that Kali can jump as far as a penguin, Gwen as far as a jack rabbit and Dave as far as a polar bear. We had a wonderful time! We got some lunch after the zoo, then we rested for a bit (I wass mostly the one that was tired, Kali is like the energizer bunny). Then we went swimming! We just went to the pool in the apartment, but still had a good time! Kali is a good little swimmer that knew lots of strokes!

Next up: THE COLORADO ROCKIES!! Dave's parents, sister and cousin came down from Berthoud to go to a game so we met up with them. We sat in left field and enjoyed a great game! It was a thriller right up until the end, but phew... we won! In a few pictures Dave and Kali have thier 'rally' caps on to help the team rally in the 9th inning. I think it must have really helped since they pulling out a W. During the 3rd inning Kailey (Dave's sister), Kali and I went to meet Dinger (the Rockies Mascot). It is said that when Coors Field was being built, a dinosaur egg was found and on opening day it hatched and out came DINGER!! IT was fun to get his signature and take some pictures. Kali got a hat signed as well as a picture of Dinger. Fun fun fun!!

Hmmmm... I think that pretty much sums up our weekend with the Kal-ster. Power packed with fun and excitement!
