[insert sad face] I’m ready for summer, or at the very least spring. But I really can’t complain. Colorado weather has generally been totally bearable (no crazy #blizzardjuno here!). If six more weeks of winter means mid-range temps and a spattering of snow, I can totally deal. Now that we’ve covered the weather, here’s what … Continue reading

Five Years and Two Goals
Friday, July 26th marked five years of marriage. Five years! I can hardly believe it’s already been that long. Crazy! Since we joined Ian’s work for camping on Friday night, we reserved Saturday night to celebrate our anniversary in style.

Last year, his team took first place! Naturally, he is hoping for a similar outcome this year, so he and … Continue reading
Bohemian Nights at NewWestFest
