Snowy trip to the Denver Zoo
Oh what a great day for the zoo!. We pulled up to park and wondered if the zoo was open. There were about 8 cars in the lot which was so different from the last visit when we had to park blocks and blocks away. It seemed as though the animals loved the lack of human stalkers. They were more animated than usual. The lions were enjoying their walk in the snow too just like Kate. The peacocks were in splendid form and posed for many pictures. And the ducks and geese found sanctuary in the pond for the winter.

Nap after Thanksgiving feast
I hope you all had a fabulous turkey day with family and friends. I went to Denver to visit Ella and Kate and their parents. When I arrived my bedroom had been decorated with butterflies the girls (and Ryan) had made for me......there were also beautiful rainbows and a jellyfish to make me smile each morning when my eyes opened. Thursday of course was spent in the kitchen....a quick break in the park and then a yummy dinner. Friday we decided to go to the Denver Zoo. It was a bright sunny day and the animals enjoyed basking in the sun as well as the Coloradans and the lone Californian.
Saturday we went up to the mountains to have some fun. We started off tubing and then went to Winter Park. It was a great day trip. I spent quite a bit of time in my 20s and 30s in these beautiful Rocky Mountains. It was great to visit them again.
Hold on tight for a busy December...I hope we all take a little time to bask in the sun.
Family at the zoo
The day after Thanksgiving we all went to the Denver Zoo. It was a really warm and sunny November day. The animals and the people all enjoyed the "summer" day
