Easter Weekend

We hung around the house this weekend. On Sunday, we got up early and went to the sunrise service at Red Rocks. It was good, but very foggy and cloudy so you couldn't see the sun. They sang Jesus Christ Superstar, which was good and interesting. We got home and went on a hike with Dave and his new roommate Beth. Then, we showered up and headed over to Dave's house for an Easter celebration since none of us have families in the area. It was fun and we had about 12 people with lots and lots of food. It felt like Thanksgiving with all the food. I even made an old school bunny cake like me and Melissa used to make when we were little.

Also, there is some funny photos of Maddie. She was beside herself when Chris and Oakley went to run an errand. She sat and stared out the window until they returned.

Birthday Fun in Denver

This weekend we were supposed to get about a foot of snow on the ground, but it was mainly just some flurries with not too much accumulation. On Friday night, we went down to Denver for our friend Julie's birthday. It was a fun time and we spent the night down there. The next day ate lunch at the famous Cherry Cricket. Chris and me wanted to go there after seeing it on the show Man v. Food. It was a good burger!

Beer, Babes, and Blades

This weekend we headed up to the High Country on Friday after work. Melisa and I did some skiing on Saturday at Keystone then Chris and Josh met up with us for the BBQ Fest. We had more people join us on Saturday night to get ready for our big party the next day. Josh's former boss was nice enough to let us use their vacation home during the weekend, which made it even more fun. On Sunday, we reserved a spot and had a great turn out for our Beer, Babes, and Blades party. It was really fun and I have to admit ski blades are especially fun. There was some really good costumes. Chris even shaved a mustache for it.

Snow! Snow! Snow!

Well after a week of 75 degrees, it had turned to winter again. I made the mistake of going into the office this morning. It took me about three hours to get home, but I was just glad to get home. The main roads going into Boulder were all closed as well as the side streets. I wasn't sure if I was going to make it home or not. There were wrecks everywhere and cars spinning out. We got about a foot and an half of snow at our house today. Chris didn't mind his injured shoulder since I had to do all the shoveling. Please excuse my lounge pants...they are pretty bad. We will be headed up to the High Country tomorrow for a fun weekend and I can't wait to snow in the awesome fresh snow!

Lazy Weekend

Chris has been doing good since his knee surgery a couple of years ago, but the injury bug has bitten again. He sustained a separated shoulder the other week while skiing at A-Basin. I was out of town, but our good friends Josh and Amber took good care of him...:) He is doing better and able to get on the trainer. We are hoping he will be back on the road in about 4 weeks have be able to ride in his 60 mile race he has signed up for in May. We took it easy this weekend and hung around the house, which was fun because it was so nice and warm outside. We bathed the dogs, but I did feel sorry for them because the water was COLD! Chris also smoked some dinner during the afternoon. Our friends Melissa and Brian came over to eat with us and it was yummy!

Trip to Florida

I left on Friday for a trip down South. I flew into Birmingham and spent the night there on Friday. We headed to Destin on Saturday and it rained and rained and rained the entire way there. We stopped in Montgomery to visit Rushie, which was a good time. We had fun at the beach, but it rained and was a little chilly while I was there. My sister and I spent a lot of time finishing up the Twilight series and I can finally say that I am now done. I flew back home yesterday and it is pretty warm here in Boulder as well.

Leadville Ski Jorying Weekend

I headed up to Leadville on Saturday with our friends Dave and Rye. It was quite the adventure and very entertaining to watch. We also hung out in the local bar, which was interesting to say the least. The bathroom sink was located on the outside out the bathroom next to the pool table? However, it is hard to beat $2 PBR!The hotel wasn't bad, but the mattress springs were awful so none of us really slept very well. On Sunday, we skied at Beaver Creek. It was fun, but they REALLY need some snow.

The first five photos are actually videos. They are worth opening up and watching!
