One of my best girlfriends from college, Jenna, lives in Denver, which is great considering we head that way so often. We unfortunately didn't make it out there last year or this year though because of Madden, so it had been WAY too long since we've seen each other! So, she decided to just pack herself and her almost-2-year-old Cameron up and come to us instead!
These two became fast buddies.
They flew in Friday afternoon, and we spent the rest of the day playing and letting the kids get to know each other. Then on Saturday, up bright and early with the kids, we decided to hit the Wild Animal Park.
We decided to take my double BOB and an umbrella stroller so that we had seating for all 3 kids. That sounded like a GREAT idea, until we packed everyone up and realized my car is way too small for all of us and that gear!! Luckily, Jenna had some room up front, and cuddled with the umbrella stroller on the ride there and back. Such a good sport :)
This picture does now do the crowded backseat justice. Let's just say, if we were to have 3 kids (which we're not), we'd for sure be getting a new car.
Luckily, despite the cramped quarters, everyone was happy!
We made it! Checking out the lions.
Taking the safari train ride, which the boys loved!
Madden was a trooper, despite skipping his morning nap. He dozed in the stroller a bit, and was a happy boy the rest of the time.
So, apparently I only took pictures at the WAP, and of course didn't get a single picture of Jenna and I together. We did have Opa over later on Saturday to watch the Gator game, and as usual was a hit with the kids. Everyone loves Opa!
It was so great to have them come for a (very quick) visit! The boys had a great time together, and it's always refreshing to spend time with my best friends who I don't get to see too often. We're hoping to make it to Denver next summer to visit them and all our other friends who live there - by then there will be THREE new babies to meet, including Jenna's 2nd, news she surprised me with that weekend!
