I had visitors today from Round Up Fellowship… they toured the radio station and hung out with me in the studio! Thanks to Tawnya for bringing them by.

I broadcasted live from Fado Irish Pub on Opening Day!

I wanted to say a huge thanks to everyone who was a part of our Heels & Wheels contest. Over the past couple of weeks we gathered qualifiers and then we all met up at the new Off Broadway Shoe Warehouse in Westminster yesterday to give away a 2009 Pontiac G6 (thanks to Alpine Buick Pontiac GMC). We had a great group of people who were great sports as we found our winner!

Congrats to Karen! Her CD was the winning CD and when she found out she won- after a moment of disbelief- she immediately called her mom! Haha! Here is a pic of Karen on the phone telling her mom “I won a freakin’ CAR!”

Again- THANK YOU to everyone who made this awesome contest possible- Off Broadway Shoes, Infinity Day Spa, Alpine Buick Pontiac GMC, our sister station and of course- YOU!

I meant to post this last Monday but the week just got away from me! How does that happen so much lately??

 Anyway- I wanted to say a big HI to my latest Sam’s Six in the City winner, Aimee… Friday before last we had a fabulous dinner at Sullivan’s Steakhouse (they always spoil us to death!!) and headed out to watch the Colorado Ballet’s Repertory Series.

Here is a pic of me with Aimee and her own little ballerina, Piper!

Thanks for the fun night ladies.

 Keep listening for the next fun Six in the City outing!
