The Memories of Denver

Well, I survived my sophomore year of college. Done-zo. Congrats to me! To celebrate our acheivements, a group of my friends and I went out to Denver for a week.

All the chicas- Larissa, Marisa, Dayna, and Kolette

I was really looking forward to spending this time with Marisa. She's been my best friend since before pre-school. I missed her, and I think she missed me too.

And this is the weather we had for three hours on the way to Darin's cabin the next day. Fantastic! Although it was a bit of an anxiety attack to drive through the snow storm, we all made it through the mountains safely and had a wonderful weekend at the cabin. Activities at the cabin: stopping by the Red Rocks, boys cooking hot dogs in the rain, Matt making pancakes, greatest hits around the fire, signs, swimming at the pool, We Bought a Zoo, Larissa and I making grilled cheese, roaming downtown of a small mountain town, and a "Hooray! You are dating!" party for Ben and me. This party was part of a deal we made with Austin and Kyle. We would go FBO if they threw us a party. So they did! I had my first Pazookie (however you spell that) and they even got us a card!



Probably one of the best parts of going to the cabin was the afternoon when we went hiking at Adam's Falls Park. We may or may not have gone off the trail a bit...



The rest of the days were spend in Denver. Activities in Denver: church, Denver zoo, the mall, Chili's, riding the free bus, seeing the capitol building, denying drugs, playing guitar and singing, meeting Darin's family, Tommy Boy, visiting my cousins, Chipotle, and playing rock band.

At the zoo! Taylor, Leah, and Brittany joined us today.

Over all wonderful trip. We praise God for safety, as we drove every day. We praise Him for the beautiful creation we were able to witness during our hikes. We praise him for the blessing of friends in our life, that we are able to grow closer together and closer to Him.
