She lost her mom this last Spring! My brother lives so close to Columbine HS he can hear the school bell ring! His youngest daughter and one of his grand daughters attended Columbine.The other kids attended Chatfield HS and if you visit the park near the school you will notice my maiden name there. It is named for my sweet niece Sarah Kocman who passed away in 1996. At the time of her death she was the first female student at Chatfield who had lettered in every single sport that a girl could participate in then! Littleton has lots of nice memories and it is sad that people recall the tragedy of Columbine HS. My grandson Andrew attended Heritage HS and each year they host the Liberty Bell XC Invitation that Nick attended for 4 years of high school! In fact, my hubby and I plan to visit the runners from Nick's high school on Sept. 13th and watch them run. It is one of the largest cross country races here and many other states participate in it. I better sign off but I could tell you lots of other nice things about Littleton, Colorado!Annesphamilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09355786666073982088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4742343364632742295.post-50240175660651195112013-08-21T20:38:58.053-04:002013-08-21T20:38:58.053-04:00Hi Pat, Thank-you for the marvelous glimpse of Lit...Hi Pat, Thank-you for the marvelous glimpse of Littleton.

Thank you so much for your kind comments about the loss of my cousin. I am still so sad and keeping her close in my heart with the many years of wonderful memories we had. A happy side was connecting to both of my parent's families. Both sides made a huge effort to gather together in a reunion because we were there.<br /><br />If we ever go back to Colorado I would love to visit the town of Littleton. What a charming place to visit. I too would love the antique shops and especially the tea room. Your photos tell a lovely story as always.<br /><br />I hope you are feeling better. I dread any reason to go to the dentist!!!<br /><br />Thank you for the tour for Blue Monday.<br />xo, Jeanne<br /><br />Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02496069719875179788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4742343364632742295.post-56572188899968587502013-08-20T18:56:19.676-04:002013-08-20T18:56:19.676-04:00My husband and I visited this lovely town and your...My husband and I visited this lovely town and your well done pictures capture it beautifully!

Sadly it was misidentified by the media as the location of the Columbine HS where the tragedy occurred many years ago. Sadly, the media often gets things wrong like that!Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4742343364632742295.post-72893729033456018662013-08-18T21:36:27.570-04:002013-08-18T21:36:27.570-04:00I will need to visit there the next time we are in...I will need to visit there the next time we are in Denver.

The Terra Cotta Cafe and Serendipi-TEA room are definitely worth your while as well as Merle's (a former gas filling station). Old DownTown Littleton is a fun place any time of year; they always make holidays special. <br /><br />If you are into cross stitching, FanciMats & More on Princeton is a great place to shop.<br /><br />I hope you recover soon from the dental visit....Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02389829595981028640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4742343364632742295.post-53418525705899581962013-08-18T17:39:22.237-04:002013-08-18T17:39:22.237-04:00Awwwww!!

I've been enjoying her sleuthing escapades for a number of sumers now. The author is Diane Mott Davidson. If you haven't read any of the books, I recommend them. All always turns out well in the end.<br /><br />Best,<br />Bonnie<br />From the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00789641912016566894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4742343364632742295.post-82196342200054379242013-08-18T16:48:04.260-04:002013-08-18T16:48:04.260-04:00Littleton looks like a lovely town.
