The Mountains

We’ve been lucky enough to steal away for a few days to my Uncle’s home up in the mountains of Colorado. It is gorgeous here. The weather is beautiful. It has rained every night. It’s just been a very peaceful, nice getaway.

My sister in law, mother and I were able to go into town the first day and do some shopping. They have such a cute little town here.

It was fun to just walk around with no agenda. We even stopped for homemade ice cream. Asher LOVED the sweet cream and blueberry and ate an entire serving by himself. (The detox after these two vacations is going to be brutal for this little boy!)

This morning we got up at 4:30 am. Can we all just agree I must love my Dad a whole lot to not only get myself up but my kid at that time to go fishing??? But it was really nice. We went out on a boat down in Gunnison and it was beautiful. Asher loved being on the boat and we all had the chance to catch a couple fish. Asher even wanted to pet the fish, although we couldn’t even get Nana to hold it.

Right now it’s pretty peaceful in this place. The family went to bed and I’m sitting up just listening to the sounds on the porch. I love this place. It does my heart a lot of good.
