Bluey comes to Denver

Our friend from home, Christina, came to visit us in Denver for the weekend. She got in at 7:45 (AH! Freakin' early!!) Friday morning and off we went! She came back to our place to settle in and then we headed to out to Red Rocks. We like to take guests there because it is so neat. She really enjoyed the sights and the hike. On our way to the hike we stopped at a Harley store for her to buy a t-shirt for her fiancee. Talk about a place that I had never been before! I had never felt so out of place. I just wanted to lecture all of the people in there about wearing their helmets and riding like they have some sense! I didn't lecture, no worries. When we finished at Red Rocks we headed to the Coors Brewery for a tour. Note: Both Bluey and I still hate beer. SICK!

The brewery was cool (it was my first time seeing it and Jackson's second), but not nearly as cool as the Budweiser plant in Ft. Collins. We didn't have time to get all the way up there! I was interesting to see the place, but I'm all set on it. No need to return. 

We headed to Boulder to grab some lunch and walk around the Pearl Street Mall. We really like Boulder, but the shopping is so expensive. We enjoyed our time there and then headed to Denver to the 16th Street Mall. We needed to grab some souvenirs  for Christina's family. We finally decided to call it a day and headed home.

We had the oddest dinner ever: wonton soup (yum!), queso, bagels and beef with vegetables. Yep. A ton of left overs. How funny. It was totally random!!

We're not sure yet what today will bring. I think we're all a little worn out from yesterday!
