Denver. At last.

I've made so many verbal promises lately you'd think I was President.

I've promised at least five people I'd have pics of such-and-such up soon. My talk is getting cheaper by the minute.  But here's a start with the Denver photos.  Hey, I don't recall any of you giving me a deadline.  That'll teach ya.

The first batch is from my recent trip to Denver to surprise my sister and her daughter at the daughter's baby shower.  Oh, the scheming was so much fun!  But when it got to the big reveal I was found out by my ever-so-efficient sister who was putting her things away in a bedroom...my hiding place!  I'd hidden behind the door and she turned around and saw me.  She just started laughing...and I stood stock still thinking maybe she just does that all the time and she really hadn't seen me.  But that wasn't the case.  Oh, well...

My sweet niece Tracy.  That's her first baby she's carrying...due May 5.

I took this photo from behind the bedroom door of my sister Theresa.  Her first words...or thereabouts: "Did you bring anyone with you??"


Tracy's sister Holly.  Yes, she really is that cute.  She was in on the scheme but at the last minute she left her mother unattended in her apartment.  But our botched plan wasn't her fault!  I forgot to sling myself out the window at the last minute...


The new mom, the new dad and the new grandma outside Holly's condo.

I think my little disposable camera got me some very not disposable photos...

OK the first thing I honed in on was the cupcakes. It's 3:30, I'm at my desk at work, and I really want on now. Tracy you look so cute!

Thank you Rita and now I want a cupcake too! They were SO GOOD! These pics turned out really great Christine! It sure was awesome having you here...Richie said we will be coming up with a way to surprise YOU in the future - so be on your guard ha! Did the glasses make it alright?

Christine said...

Yes, got the glasses just fine. And next time you send me a small brown Sephora box, let's make sure it really has something from Sephora in it, mmmkay? Got my hopes all up... But I like my glasses.
