Mile High Resort

This past weekend we went away with our small group to the Mile High Resort.  We were five families in total (missing two).  We each had our own little cabin, but were all located within a 1 min walk from each other.  At night we would put out babies to bed and then bring our monitors over to the main cabin and hang out.  It was lovely.  

our cute little log cabin!


the inside - we had one little bedroom, a bathroom, and a main room with more beds and a small kitchen - the cabins were heated with a wood stove - they were cozy!

there was lots of room for the kids to play and roam


they had a nice little playground

and a lovely dock that the boys all fished off of

Matt was able to finally test out his new belly boat!

I cherish these weekends away with friends - so many memories made!

Cara & Daniel Get Married!

We were privileged to witness the union between two special people this past Saturday.  It was a lovely, warm, spring day.  The venue was magnificent and the wedding so perfectly Cara and Daniel!  It was wonderful!  Here are some pictures from the big day!

The ceremony.




My handsome groom :)

The wedding and reception were at the same site and there were lawn games to be played!

It was fun having friends come out for the wedding and as an added bonus we got to hang out and catch up on life!  Such a treat!

The reception was in a "barn" - the prettiest "barn" you have ever seen!


Such a special day - congrats Cara & Daniel!

(thanks Correna for sharing your pictures with me)
