Can it already be a week ago that we rolled into Denver ready for a fun-filled week in Breckenridge?
Our vacation to the Melius Cousins Reunion was AWESOME. So much fun, beautiful weather and scenery.
We all stayed in a home in the mountains, so the 12 of us spent much of our time admiring the mountains all around us.
There was adequate golf for David, shopping for me and plenty of food, drinks, conversation, and laughs for both of us.
On Thursday, we went on a REAL hike in the mountains. We drove until we came upon this avalanche. Much of our trail was covered in knee-deep snow, which was difficult at times, but added to the experience. How many times can you walk in snow in June?
(I did wonder if we would get to in South Dakota this year, but thankfully that didn't happen!)
It's always hard to leave, but we are glad to be back at the elevation our red blood cells are used to! On our hike, we reached 2 miles above sea level. We prairie dwellers were huffing and puffing at the slightest amount of exercise. We were all ready to experience an oxygen bar, but we couldn't find one that was open. Maybe next time. :)
Our children were happy to see us again on Saturday. . . I think. They had a pretty good week at VBS, grandma and grandpa's house, and with their babysitters.
Yesterday, David and I spent our 12th anniversary at my family reunion. We caught the tail end of that one, but still managed to see most everyone.
We are blessed beyond measure with our family and friends.
Summer 2013 . . . so far, so good!
