Colorado


Alli and I went to CO for MEA weekend. Melissa, my sister, lives in Frederick, which is relatively close to Boulder. The first day we were there, my sister Kristina and her son Nolan, were on the last day of their trip, so with the few hours of overlap we visited Boulder. The following morning Alli, Connor, and I went to Rocky Mountain National Park for a little hike. This picture of Alli and Connor was taking during the hike. We then met Melissa, Isabel, and Lucas for lunch in Estes Park. Alli and I stayed the night, and the following morning toured around RMNP. We then spent some more time with my sister and her family, eating dinner at a very nice barbeque restaurant. Waking up early, we cruised home. There was a lot of driving, but the trip was great. We were able go see some beautiful mountains, and also some family that we rarely get to visit. It was the perfect trip to help us settle in for a long Minnesota winter.

The Beginning

Being a rather private couple, this generally would not be the thing this (blogging) family would do, but, upon hearing about our lack of skill in the phone department, a good way to answer all the "What's going on questions?" would be to provide all the answers you could ever want in a nice easy-to-find website.
