Last weekend, our oldest daughter was celebrating her two-year anniversary with her boyfriend in Steamboat Springs and we needed to get some Christmas photos for the year so we decided to join them up there. They had gone up before we did and stayed in a B&B. We stayed at a La Quinta about five... Continue Reading →
Last week daughter was on fall break from school and husband took some time off work so we decided to take a little car ride up to Evergreen to walk around the lake. We've been to the lake a few times (our family Christmas photo was taken there last year) but never walked around it.... Continue Reading →
The day before Valentine's Day, husband and I went to Loveland. This was our second time going since the new year. Husband didn't snowboard as much this time. The visibility had gotten pretty bad by the time he started going down the hills. I was able to get some editing done and wanted to stay... Continue Reading →
Last week, the family took a road trip to Ouray, Colorado. It was a six hour drive through winding roads and beautiful mountain views so it didn't feel very long at all. The photo below shows us at just shy of three hours from our destination. Here are some views on our way there. We... Continue Reading →

This was my first hike this year. This was a really easy hike. The landscape was mainly flat so I did't get much workout in, which is fine for now since it's been awhile. The views were beautiful and very green. We laid down a couple of rocks for Kat, the girl who passed away... Continue Reading →
Over the weekend the family went to the International Evening of Dance up in Vail with the girls' dance school. The families went separately and met up there. The event was a couple of weeks long and covered all kinds of dancing including hip hop, modern, and ballet. We only went for one day and... Continue Reading →
I believe this was the last time we visited the Royal Gorge. A couple of years we tried to go but it was late and they were closed. Plus, there had been a fire and burned down the carousel.
Husband hiked a 14er, Mt. Princeton, a couple of weeks ago. He finally showed me the photos and I was in awe. When he summited Mt. Princeton he took this amazing photo of Mt. Antero.
Husband took these gorgeous photos: Daughter and I hiking up the last bit of Mt. Evans. The lack of oxygen really did a number on me. That's me in the black coat with the hood on, initially hanging on to courage, but failed and never made it to the top. It was cold and extremely... Continue Reading →
