And then there were 6...

On Friday, June 29th, Kelley Semens arrived in Aurora, Colorado.  Kelley is a graduate from Augustana College in Rock Island, IL where she played volleyball and was coached by a wonderful volunteer named Jeff Dolan!  : )  After Kelley graduated, she got her master's in Occupational Therapy from Washington University in St. Louis and chose to do her clinicals in Aurora.  We were happy to agree to let her live with us during her 3-month rotation.  Kelley got settled in quickly and we have kept her busy since she got here.  We have already taken her for mountain high pizza in Idaho Springs, a hike at Golden Gate Canyon State Park, bouncing on trampolines at JumpStreet, a weekend in Estes Park and a fun (but rainy) night at a Rockies game! 

She blends in well with our family and totally just rolls with whatever is going on.  She bonded with the kids before they left for Iowa and is a total dog-lover, so Cody is quite happy with all the extra attention.  While the kids are on vacation, Jeff and I are using her as a good excuse to do lots of fun things on the weekends to show her around.  This weekend, we are headed to Dillon to visit Terry and to go downhill mountain biking at Keystone!
