Mallie's Visit

We were so excited for Mallie to come visit us!! Presley had tons of activities planned and we stayed busy the first few days. We picked her up in our sweet new ride... we traded in my car and got a Toyota Sienna to make room for Baby Lala. I'm still not an expert at parking, but it is so nice to have all the room.  Presley loves that her door magically opens for her.  

 We have had awesome weather and been going to a new park every afternoon. David is such a daredevil and just takes off.

We picked Mallie up in Denver and headed to the Acquarium. We got there just in time for the mermaid show, which was awesome. She was in awe of "Ariel."

We went to a new place in the mountains for breakfast one morning. It was such a beautiful drive! 

After breakfast, we headed to the dinosaur museum. Presley loved it!

 This picture is kind of dark, but this was our drive back down the mountain. 

 The rest of her visit, she helped me shuttle Pres to and from dance and school and just get things done. She was so helpful and it was so nice to get to spend the days with her. Presley and Mallie made oatmeal cookies together and banana pudding. Cameron and I even got a dinner out a really cool restaurant downtown.

 We even squeezed in a trip to the zoo to meet the baby giraffe that was 11 days old.

Presley got a new mermaid costume from a shopping trip one day. 

 We walked around downtown Manitou one day and let the kids go crazy in the arcade and game area.

We even had a trip to Barnes and Noble where David played with the train table, got some new transportation books that he loves to read in the car and a new Clifford stuffed "doggie" that he adores.

She even got to go to my ultrasound to find out what baby Lala is, but that is another post...

 We loved our time with Mallie and are so sad that she had to go home. Can't wait for the next trip when Dallie comes, too!
