We found out we were expecting a baby back in November and have been super ecstatic since. This is the announcement we put up on Facebook. We thought using gear was fitting for two climbing enthusiasts. I suppose it’s possible our baby won’t grow up to be a climber (there’s also caving as well!) but…
We’ve been in this new place for awhile now, but this post was written so it might as well get published! I’m just too lazy to take pictures of it right now I guess, so family and friends, you’ll just have to come visit! When we moved into our last rental we thought that after…
My dad also came for a visit around the end of summer. We did our best to give him a whirlwind tour of the area since he was only here for a weekend. There are so many things to see in this area that we spent a lot of time driving around and sightseeing. Our…
Buena Vista has become one of our new CO favorites, especially for K. He absolutely loves this area and I can’t disagree. It is in the Arkansas River valley, with views of the Collegiate Range and many other 14ers. We took a weekend trip out together and stayed in a local hotel called the Surf…
Steamboat Springs has got to be one of the go to places for fall colors in Colorado. There are plenty of others, but considering we were a little later than we would have hoped getting away for the weekend to see the leaves because of a lot of work travel I had been doing, this…
My Dad came to visit near the end of the summer. It was really nice to see him and it was a different experience in that he brought his RV and actually had a place to park it next to our house! With his home right next door, K was also able to load him…
This post is way overdue, but we wanted to introduce our godson, L! He is the son of my very best friend L and her husband A. K and I were very excited about his birth and are honored to be godparents to him. We went to visit a few month’s after L’s birth and…
Two other things that happened this fall that are worth a definite mention because they were so fun and are a must see for anyone who is in the area of their show circuits, are the Cavalia Odysseo Horse Show and Chihuly Sculpture Exhibit. Cavalia Odysseo, if we had to describe it in just a…
I’m very fortunate to have a wonderful group of ladies in my life from my church Small Group in VA. And even though I’m no longer living out there, these friendships have continued and we’ve already determined that with several of us having moved away and our relationships enduring that these will be lifelong friendships….
This was a really fun hike. It is about or just over 5 miles out and back, though the out portion is practically uphill the entire way. There was snow and ice on portions of the trail, enough to make it slippery in some areas. Hiking poles definitely came in handy and Yaktraxs would have…
