Roomie Reunion 2011

Every year my college roomies & I make an effort to get together, and thus far we’ve been pretty successful! As there are three of us in Colorado now, Linda & Tawnya came out here for a long weekend visit in July.

We started off with some much needed R&R, and some delicious Café Rio. Sometimes there’s nothing like just chilling with your best girlfriends! We crashed a couple of Pioneer Day ward picnics and ended up at the Arapahoe County Fair for a dog show, rodeo, fried food and carnival rides. It was surprisingly pretty good!

The only seats we could find were down in the dirt- Linda was not loving it (that picture cracks me up) Linda B also charmed an old man out of his rusty fold up chair…

Yes, that’s a Ferris wheel that we went on & yes we all screamed. That has got to be the scariest ride of all! Thanks Sam & Megan for the great aerial photo of the carnival!

Roomie Reunion - Arapahoe County Fair

 

We rendezvous'd at our house for a good old fashioned weenie roast and s’mores on Sunday afternoon. Despite getting a million mosquito bites we had a fantastic time! Yes, we are laughing really hard in this photo- very representative of the evening… and all our time together for the most part.

MegO, Tawn, & Linda starred in this dramatic re-enactment of a Safeway donut mishap that took place at my wedding.

We wrapped up the trip with a visit to the Botanic Gardens. It wasn’t complete without MeganO, who had to be on her way back to the Springs- but it was fun all the same. Crazy HOT though!

You can’t read it, but Kimi is actually next to a Kimi plant!

 

Thank you for the fun times, yet again!! I’m a lucky girl to have such great friends… Here’s to many, many more adventures!

What a great weekend. It never gets old looking at pictures of our adventures and remembering "good times" together.

One thing is certain...between the jazz hands, the cokes, and the tootnrolls this is a group of girls who know how to enjoy life!

Linda IS quite the charmer...old men who give up folding chairs, Ferris wheel operators and, lest we forget, the creeper from that club in SLC - haha!

It really was a great weekend and I'm looking forward to a mini-extension of it at the beginning of November. Thanks for opening up the Berg B & B for such an occasion.
