Betty Visits Boulder!!

Betty was our first visitor in Boulder- she came out over the weekend and flew on Monday night...I miss her already!! We had a great time cooking, baking, walking, watching movies,and catching up! We took her out to Rocky Mountain National Park where she got to see up close and personal a marmot, tons of elk, and a few deer! She also experienced the thunderstorms and sunny days! It was fun times and I only wish she was able to stay out here for another week!

Betty had to work and Adam had schoolwork- so I played photographer!

Betty in Rocky Mountain!!

We went on a great day- even enjoyed some afternoon thunderstorms!

Sisters! Practically twinsies!

Betty handled the elevation like a rockstar!

Betty loved seeing the marmot!!

Isn't he so cute?

Another shot!

Love the lakes nestled around the park!

One of several herds of elk that we saw out grazing


A couple deer close by the road

Female elk that was in a herd that was right next to us (we were in the car). 

Male elk that was watching over his cows and calves

Someone honked their horn and away they took off!

Betty and Adam at Bear Lake

Betty being a pioneer!

Another elk on the side of the road, totally unfazed by us!

There are some more photos that I'll post in a bit, but these are Round 1! =D
