Colorado slideshow, enjoy!



Rocky Mountain highs & lows:
*High- Oaklee not crying on the flight & trying to flirt with everyone sitting around
us
*High- staying with the English's in Denver 2 nights= incredible cinnamon rolls, egg
casserole & coffee. I love breakfast! Their hospitality was top-notch.
*High- eating at Panera for lunch on our way to the cabin. Heaven! (for cindy, jason wasn't as excited as I was)
*Low- having a stinking altitude headache for at least 2 days. They are not fun!
*High- seeing my friend Brooke at the ranch she works at. I haven't seen her since my wedding! (but I had a headache the whole time we were there, too)
*Low- being in an exclusive fly-fishing community & not getting to fly fish! (only b/c we need more lessons, and there was no one to keep oaklee)
*High- finally finishing Pride & Prejudice (in novel form) and loving every minute of
it. I've seen the movie probably close to 100x's, but never read the book.
*High- riding 4 wheelers around the property. This was probably my favorite activity.
*Low- seeing all the fire damage to the trees from the Hayman fire. It was really sad to see! Plus it came REALLY close to our cabin.
*High- naps every day for all 3 of us= divine.
*High- beating Jason at Scrabble.
*Low- losing to Jason at Scrabble.
*High- seeing several gorgeous sunsets from our porch each night.
*High- true peace & quiet. No phone, no TV, no internet. Just the sound of the river
& the wind. It was awesome.
*Low- coming back to a literal mountain of paperwork for Jason. He's having a heck of a time catching up this week.
*High- uninterrupted time for the 3 of us to hang out. It was some sweet time
together.

    Cindy, Good to see you and your family! I'm glad you found us... :) Your daughter is so beautiful. It looks like you guys are doing well. Reed wanted me to let you know he was glad to see Jason and happy that you guys have a great family. I'm so jealous you were in CO this past week! We were almost headed that way (to Lake City) and made some last minute changes. We're determined to go next summer, though. Maybe we'll meet up sometime! :)

    Cindy,I've been enjoying your blog for a while now, and can't tell you how much fun it is to watch Oakley growing! You've inspired me to start a blog for our family: adamsfamilycircus.blogspot.com

    Congratulations on the new blessing! We'll be praying for a safe and healthy pregnancy and birth.

    If you haven't already seen it, check out the movie Becoming Jane. It is sooo good and really brings the background story of Pride & Prejudice to life.
