GMA in Denver!





I hope you enjoy today's pictures!!!

Today Good Morning America was in Denver. I was excited to see what the window in NYC would look like, and I really wanted to go down to Union Station and get on TV. Unfortunately, I had to work, so I could only watch on TV. It was really cold down there, I think something like 16 degrees here right now, but everyone seemed to be having fun. The window had snow skiers skiing at WinterPark, it showed the Ski Train--which I am excited to ride--and it showed the Christmas lights! it was spectacular and gave a flavor of why it is so great to live in Denver!

Next week, my two favorite kids will be here. We are going to ride the Santa Train to Pikes Peak, and make a stop at Santa's workshop--it is such fun having a 5 year old who is SO excited about Christmas!! We are also going to ride the light rail downtown to Union Station and see the lights, we are headed to Copper Mountain for a day of snowboarding and tubing, and we are going to the Children's museum and to see the Zoo lights!

In preparation for their visit, Mimi has been very busy! I had to buy a Moses' basket, so little ER would have somewhere to sleep, and I had to get diapers, wet ones, formula, etc., so that Mom doesn't have to worry about packing all these things. Also, we had to have a baby snowsuit and, of course, some presents under the tree--which I also had to purchase and decorate.

The stockings are hung by the front door with care ( a NEW one this year!) in hopes that the Grandkids soon will be here. There are icicle lights on the patio, and real icicles are hanging from the patio as well. Snow covers the land, at least temporarily, and it is indeed beginning to look a lot like Christmas. The real present already arrived, in October, and he has brought such joy!!
