Our weekend was PACKED full of fun times, especially outside. The weather was AMAZING and finally feels like spring (or more like summer for the Coloradans). THIS is some weather I can get with. Bring on the shorts and sandals and see ya later pale skin!  So as soon as Caleb woke up from hisContinue reading “The Weekend Recap: Hello Outside! “

So four years ago today this happened.  You would never know in that moment that Nick had woken up that morning with a huge stye on his eye, I had to have an emergency dental procedure that week prior, and our wedding cake had just been dropped somewhere along the way to the church.
