We'll miss you, Colorado!




Two of the many things we'll miss about Colorado--friends and nature.

Steamboat Springs



We just returned from a 36 hour trip to Steamboat Springs.  It was a wonderfully refreshing time: we relaxed in the hot springs, ate gigantic cinnamon rolls, and hiked to a water fall.  The best part was Eloise shouting "WHOA" when the cinnamon rolls came out.  The waitress got a real kick out of that!

(And isn't Eloise cute walking in Alex's shoes?  She loves putting on our shoes these days!)

Milestones

We've had a few milestones this past week:
1.  Eloise turned 18 months!  Wow, how time flies!  Went to the doctor and she's has healthy as can be.
2.  We had our 3 year anniversary.  Went to my favorite restaurant Vin 48 and had a great night out.  Eloise stayed home with a babysitter and did wonderfully.
3.  It's 10:15 Saturday morning and Eloise is still sleeping!  We've been up for hours waiting for her so we could walk to get doughnuts.  Just gave up on that--Alex is going to get them now.  She's on 14 hours of sleep and counting.  


PS-It was 43 degrees when we woke up this morning.  Whoa!  Is Fall really approaching already?  Alex and I are both doing weddings today.  Unfortunately it's not great wedding weather!

Mountain Top Service




We had a wonderful mountain top service last Sunday!  It's been such a joy to work with the Keith family and the Vail congregation.  We will miss them all so much!

We'll miss Matt!



One of our most delightful friends in Vail is Matt McLoota.  We absolutely love having him come over and play with Eloise.  They have become such wonderful friends and play so well together.  He has made my life much easier because he can please Eloise much better than myself.  Matt is also one of the funniest children I know. We will miss him dearly!!
