Happy Tuesday everybody! Thank you for all the lovely comments we received on our floors last week. The wood is being installed in Stephen’s office today, and the carpet should be installed tomorrow, so sometime “soon” we should finally get to move back in to our rooms and stop living on take-out food!
If you couldn’t tell from the fact that I posted every single day last week, last week was actually my Spring Break. I was able to relax on Monday and Tuesday, but on Wednesday, we took a little road trip to visit friends in Denver.
Stephen, our friend Robby, and I made the 13 hour drive and got to Colorado Wednesday in time for dinner. Thursday was all about skiing!
The temperatures were incredibly mild, and we spent most of Thursday taking skiing lessons at Winter Park (none of us had ever skied before). I am officially a fan of the sport!
We met up with another friend for dinner that night and enjoyed some local brews.
Friday was another skiing day for Stephen and a shopping day for me! We took a trip to Ikea and then caught The Hunger Games on the big screen. I was a huge fan of the Hunger Games Trilogy but wouldn’t recommend the movie to somebody who hadn’t read the books first. The film was well done – it just might not have made much sense to someone without the back-story.
Saturday, Stephen and I stopped by the flagship REI store in Denver.
We spent the rest of the afternoon touring Redstone Meadery and Avery Brewery in Boulder. Did you know there are something like 120 microbreweries in the Denver/Boulder Metro Area?
Here are our accommodating friends Geoff and Megann on the left and road trip buddy Robby on the right.
We had dinner in Boulder Saturday at a great restaurant called The Gondolier (highly recommend!) and packed up to head home Sunday.
It was a quick trip, but we had so much fun! Definitely lots of new experiences for all of us and good times with friends.
Monday morning was a rude awakening, but we’re getting back in the swing of things and should have more to share on the home front soon!
Did you get a Spring Break this year? Any spring house projects going on?
