Weekend Get-A-Way!

Connie and I headed up to Vail on Saturday for a little getaway. Man, was it nice to get out of town and away for the day to day grind. It was a last minute trip that we decided on Saturday morning and we booked a room at the Vail Spa for the night. We packed up our fly fishing gear and headed west. We drove through some crazy weather but at the top of Vail pass the clouds parted and we had 60 degree weather for fishing. The gods were shinning down on us and it ended up being a BEAUTIFUL day.

First cast of the year. Eagle River, Vail, Colorado.

A little after dinner room service! Yummy!


Vail was a ghost town and very quiet and peaceful. We had a lovely dinner at Terra and passed out in one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in. It was a little piece of heaven.



This morning Connie and I slept in and after watching a little Sponge Bob we got our butts into gear and headed down to the gym for a great two hour work out, lots of abs and lots of reps. After sitting in the steam room for a good long while and letting our muscles relax it was off to the best part of the weekend. We both got Swedish massages. I was like gumbie after. It was amazing. What a weekend!

The spa at the hotel was beautiful.

We drove down this afternoon excited to pick up the little one from her dad's. I don't think I have ever felt so rejuvenated and ready to start a work week.
Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!

Meaning To....

I've been meaning to post pictures of the finished wall at the office for a while now but it seems like every time I remember I'm either not near a computer or something else gets in the way. Well ...here it is, we decided not to do different patio layouts on top, those are going in a different spot but we did put some large slabs on top so we could display our furniture. Now, on to the next 1,000 different projects I have in mind for around here... only that's going to have to wait till tomorrow, the lil one is not feeling well so my mama went and picked her up from school and I'm heading to the doc with her in a few hours to get her checked out. Don't think it's anything major just chest congestion , runny nose but no fever. Nothing a little rest and TLC wont fix! I love the fact that everything is finally starting to turn green. Green makes every thing look better! :)

Ski Team!

A few weeks ago Stella started training with the Eldora Ski Team every Saturday. Now Saturday's can't come soon enough. I get up at 6 and get Stella up at 6:30 and we are out the door by 7. Usually we get up to Eldora around 8:30 after making a stop to get mama coffee and Stella and donut or two! :) By 9am Stella is ripping up the slopes with her coach (Dave) and 5 other little girls her age. She is having such a blast it's hard to believe we didn't do this sooner. I never noticed these signs before and thought it was pretty cool the ski area was showing some love to the local ski programs. Stella proceed to then inform me that they've been there for quite some time. Oops! :) Stella and two of her little ski buddies! Stella ripping up the GS course! At the end of the day which is usually at 3 all the kids have to help tear down the course. Stella is doing such an awesome job that it makes me one proud mama. Much Love!!!
