Back to Boulder...

It has been hard getting back to the swing of things since our return to Boulder. I have been feeling sick since Tuesday due to a lack of sleep and the crazy temperature changes. However, I am starting to feel better. On Tuesday, Chris and I went to the Banff Film Festival at the Boulder Theater. It was fun, but not as good as years past. On Thursday night, we drove down to Denver to see Andrew Bird at The Ogden. We had a great time and it was one of the best concerts we have ever been to.

CANCUN!!

Chris and I left for Cancun this past Thursday and got back late on Sunday night. We had so much fun and didn't want to come home. This was the "Club Trip" for Chris' work. It was cloudy and raining on Friday, but we got so much sun on Saturday. We said at the Cancun Palace, which is an all inclusive resort. I am not sure what they paid, but we got our money's worth. The travel day on Sunday was long since we had to connect in Houston. It was a little stressful since we had less than an hour to go through customs and back to the ticket office to go back through security since we had to change airlines...which was on the other side of the airport. However, we did sit First Class on the flight, which was really nice!

An Eventful Weekend

Chris and I drove up to Keystone on Friday night. Ourfriends left us the keys to their house while they are in France. There was still alot of traffic, but not too bad. We got up early Saturday and met some friends in Breckenridge for skiing. They really needed some snow up there. It was fun, but it turned pretty cold in the afternoon. On Sunday, we got up early to go skiing at A-Basin. We were so proud of ourselves when we got to the parking lot at 7:55 AM. However, we somehow forgot Chris' ski bag back at the house, which wouldn't be some bad. However, I put my bag back in the car and we shut the door...with the keys inside....and it was locked. We had to call a locksmith, who arrived 45 minutes later to save the day. I already had plans to leave early, so we decided the ski gods were trying to tell us we didn't need to ski today. We drove back to Boulder, which ended up being nice. Chris did about a 30 mile bike ride since it was sunny out and I went to a hockey game with my friend, Melisa. It was ladies day, so we got out ticket, a slice a pizza, and a glass of wine for $11!

Another Ski Weekend

On Friday, Chris and I went to the Boulder Cork for a steak and a really good dessert called Mud Pie. Ultimate told him to take me to a nice dinner on the corporate card! On Saturday, we got up at 5:20 AM and went to Vail for the day. It was fun, but Chris changed the setting on his bindings. We figured out that maybe it shouldn't have been moved. We spent the night in Keystone and our friend Brian crashed with us. We all met up with our friends Josh and Amber for some Mexican food. On Sunday, we went to Keystone. They really need some snow, which I think happened today. It got really busy, so we headed back to Boulder.

Back in the Saddle

It has been so sunny and warm out here this week. Chris and me took our road bikes out yesterday for a spin. I have improved dramatically since the last time I was on it, which I think can be contributed to all my mountain biking this past summer. I am feeling better on the bike, but I don't think I will ever like all the cars driving by.

I also bought a face brush last night. I have been saving up since my birthday for this splurge and I can't wait to use it! I also got the third book for the Twilight series. I felt dorky considering I had to go to the Young Adult section to get it. However, the 50 year old man helping us has read the entire series as well. He let us know that the last book has one of the best action scene that has ever been written in fantasy literature....interesting....

Snowshoeing in RMNP

Chris was sick all week. He went to the doctor on Thursday and was told it was a viral infection that has been going around. Hopefully he will be feeling better soon and I won't get it. On Saturday, we went with our friend Melisa snowshoeing in RMNP. We had a really fun time. The highlight was sliding down the side of the mountain!
