The Journey to Colorado

Well I just got back from a LONG trip to Colorado. Let me first say that it is such a beautiful state. When Corrie and I were much younger I can remember her mom driving us to Wet~n~Wild (yea back when it was still called that :) in this old brownish gold car that they had bought in Colorado and moved down here with them. I thought that it was SO odd that they didn't have AC in this car.... come on who didn't have AC its like 110 degrees here in the summers and that particular summer day im sure it was blistering, lol! Well I know know where that old little car came from.

So Corrie, Jennifer, Lilly and I set out at about 5 or so for Colorado, we made a little detour that we will never forget :) but got back on course very quickly. So needless to say after 14 hours of ridding in the car my feet were KILLING me. But we had finally met our destination and the next 6 days we would spend making Corrie fell at home. Here are a few pictures of us in Texas and us in Colorado.




Thursday Corrie and her family went white water rafting which I would have loved to do as well but I didn't want to cause Lilly any pain so Jen and I opted to go into a small town called Salida that sits down in the mountains and shop and enjoy the beauty of Colorado. We ate at this little Quant resturant for lunch and it was delicious! then we walked around for a bit til we found this coffee shop with free wii fii and Very comfy couches to relax in. Aunt Jenny got to watch Lilly moving around like crazy and I bought a very cute bag to match her nursery (everything I buy seems to match her nursery). Friday corrie's dad was flying back home so Jen and I went and got some Chic fl a and went to barnes & nobles since Corrie had gotten jen hooked on the new serious why were were there, then later that day we finished unpacking miss Corrie. Saturday was Stephanies wedding shower which was VERY nice! Sunday we went to church with Steph and I really enjoyed it :) then later on that day we meet up with Josh Holcomb for a late lunch! Monday was our last day to see eachothe for a while and we had planned on going and doing something fun but with all that we had done already we were all content with just hanging out doing NOTHING! It was so nice to! Although I love Corrie very much and Im gonna miss her greatly I was SO ready to get back home to my wonderful hubby! We hadn't been apart that long ever and being out of my normal routine was wearing on me! So tuesday morning we boarded the plane after a very confusing airport adventure in Denver but we made it to Dallas and as soon as we walked outside I could feel the reason that I love Denver so much... the humidity here is HORRIBLE!
