Aaron & Jenn are married! What an absolutely beautiful day for a beautiful couple. Here are a few glimpses of the celebration:

Last week FLI students are on Fall Break. For those who stayed around, we had some good times together. Here’s a few snapshots.

Time for tea at Montagues.

Girls day in the mountains! [Somehow "mom van" snuck herself in this shot. Sneaky, sneaky!]

And of course, the ensuing snowball fight. [Since we're on the continental divide, I guess it really does matter who throws the snow where. You never know, we could throw quite the wrench in this spring's eco-system. I'm just sayin'.]

Lunchtime at Euro Cafe

Then began our shopping excursion. and quite the excursion it was.

Yes, the little yellow Starbucks was as cozy as ever.

By day’s end, we were ready to be home again having enjoyed a girls day away.

Don’t you just love this? I found it on the wall of a bathroom of all places. I must say, it’s the strangest thing taking a photograph in a public restroom. Very odd, actually. Yet, it had to be done. You are welcome.
