Karla's Birthday & Kristin's Visit

For Karla's birthday weekend her sister Kristin flew into town to help celebrate.  Friday night(her birthday was officially on Saturday) we had a very nice dinner at Solera Restaraunt.  Since Matt knew the owner, he let us bring our own dessert - a Dairy Queen Ice Cream Cake!  Karla was unaware until the waitress brought out our "special dessert".  Admittedly probably not as good as the creme brulee would have been, but Karla got her favorite for her birthday!

Saturday morning we took a nice hike to Red Rocks, since Kristin had never been there.  But before we left for the hike we made the decision to buy Zac Brown tickets for their Wrigley Field show in September, a nice way to start the morning!  On the way back to town from Red Rocks we stopped by the Colorado Cider Co, and enjoyed some delicious Colorado ciders.  Since we hadn't had enough to drink, we then met a lot of friends at the Lowery Beer Garden and enjoyed more drinks, and of course, a ton of pretzels, which were life altering.  Pretty sure we ruined every ballpark pretzel for Kristin. We finished the night with beers at Great Divide and some slices of pizza at a new place nearby.

It was great to have Kristin in town for the weekend -- it made for a memorable weekend!
