Good to have her back

I am very pleased to report that Miss MacKenzie Petefish made it back to Denver yesterday afternoon. I was so happy to see her. She was happy to see me, too. She peed all over the place- thankfully we were outside. (Later, she was happy to see Jackson, but no pee. Sorry, Jack. ;))

Guy and MacKenzie made great time getting out here. They drove all the way to Colby, Kansas on Thursday. (That's 931 miles in one day with a dog. Pretty impressive.) I requested that they not do the entire drive in one sitting so they spent the night in Kansas. They got an early start on Friday and were here around lunchtime. My boss was kind enough to give me the afternoon off (with a caution to enjoy it as it was the last time off granted for 3 months...eek) so I took Guy to lunch at our favorite Mexican place. Then we went to get my NEW (to me), GORGEOUS RED Audi A4 convertible washed. That car has some power. I may or may not have driven it at 113 mph down I-25 yesterday. You decide. Anyway, I think I am going to love having my own freedom wheels again. I had not been so happy to drive since I was 16! (And that's been a long time ago these days.)

Guy needed a nap so I dropped him off before said speeding down the interstate. Guy mentioned that he wanted a good pizza so Jackson got a recommendation from his boss. The boss is a good man. We went to Big Bill's New York Style Pizza (us along with the rest of metro Denver) and had a great meal. We even had good service. GASP. That never happens to the Petefish family. We came back to the condo and had Guy watch "The Hangover" with us. I think he liked it ok. That movie just cracks me up. We all agreed that my Mom would NOT appreciate such a film so it was a good thing that she was back in Upland.

The weather is supposed to be great today so we are headed to Red Rocks and Lookout Mountain. Then we're going to that steakhouse, The Keg, for an early dinner before we come back to the condo to watch the COLTS game. GO HORSE! :)

I am so happy that your perfect little dog arrived home to her Mommy and Daddy. Hope Guy enjoys Red Rocks! Where is a picture of your new red convertible? And, please don't drive 113 mph as you and Jackson are too special to me to have anything happen to you.
GO COTLS!!!

Glad that the princess has returned to her kingdom. I do think you opened her up just to see what she could do. Go Colts. Mommy needs a win.
