Katie Beth is outside the Antlers Hilton in one of her new outfits that Karen bought for the trip. Katie Beth is also wearing her pink boots that her Aunt Faith gave her for her 1st birthday.
Everyone loves the outfit.
Hanging Out in Colorado Springs
We are settling into our long stay in Colorado Springs. I even picked up a microwave from a thrift store for 10 bucks, because this hotel doesn’t have room microwaves. Our room refrigerator is fill with supplies.
I hope that we have a good time on this trip.
Scooter Fun
Katie Beth has learned how to use a scooter. And, how to play on the scooter.
We turned once and she was standing on this scooter. Yes, standing all the way up.
Kenny Mango's Coffee Shop
If you are looking for a new coffee shop, I would like to suggest Kenny Mango’s Coffee Shop on Hughes Road in Madison, Alabama.
You can find them here
Kenny Mango’s Coffee
97 Hughes Rd # A
Madison, AL 35758
(256) 461-6388
I stop by in the morning on the way into work and I have always enjoyed the coffee. I typically get a Monkey size café latte with an extra shot and sometimes a flavor like chocolate added. There is nothing like 4 shots to get you going in the morning.
Some weekend events, you will find musical entertainment at Kenny, which can be nice.
Tickets Purchased, Rooms Booked, and Plans Made
We are heading back to Colorado Springs for my work for two more trips during the next months. I am looking forward to it. (Karen may or may not by the end of it all.)
But, we are still wanting to handle the needs from the last trip like having a highchair and microwave in the room for Karen to use.
Our first trip will be via airplane and the second will be via train. Weee!
Taking A Break
It is tough playing so hard. Katie Beth was having a blast on all of the playground equipment during the Monte Sano Art Show. She went down the slides all by herself including climbing up to the slide and going down.
Monte Sano Art Show and Jam Session
Katie Beth Sits in with the Band
Katie Beth joined in with a band of drummers at Monte Sano Art Show. She had been dancing early on in the session. In this picture, she is just sitting and studying the instrument in front of her, which I believe is a didjeridu.
We go ever year and this year Katie Beth could jam with the band. She enjoyed walking around in the dirt, too.
Artisan Beer Tasting @ Huntsville Botanical Garden
Presented By The Nook
Friday, September 19, 6-8 p.m., The Arbor
My dad's bar, The Nook, will be putting on a beer tasting at Huntsville Botanical Garden today. It looks like it will fun.
Katie Beth, Pockits, and Rocks
Katie Beth learned pockits are for holding things like rocks. She would keep picking up rocks and filling her pockits.
She had great time and she to learned to hold her mouth open so daddy could look for rocks, which frequented her mouth.
We got to ride our bicycle to the playground.
Allison’s Visited Tonight
We had great time tonight with Allison. She joined us for dinner and a movie. We had homemade lasagna with homemade French bread. The movie was Rataouille, which Allison hasn’t seen and Karen has only seen parts due to sleeping through some of it.
Katie Beth enjoyed Allison’s entertainment, which was non-stop from walking in the door to Katie Beth going to sleep.
