Colorado getaway

We recently stole away with my parents to a 
vacation house near Fairplay, CO. 
It was wonderful!

Colorado summer

Since we've been back in Colorado
after our Cali & Chicago trips, 
we've had plenty of summertime
going on.

Like racing,

Fireworks with friends at the lake,


mountain biking,

hiking,


and enjoying some time with family!

The Huntington Gardens - Cali 2013


Z & I recently took a little
vacation to California. 

Here are some photos from 
The Huntington Botanical Gardens
(one of my very favorite places).
Happy cactus with goatee.

There's plenty more where these guys came from!*

*Because I'm incredibly shutter-happy.

Happy Birthday, Mama!

Wishing my precious mama the
best birthday!

She is the most beautiful woman I know, 
and I'm so grateful to be her daughter.

Catching up

It's been way too long since I've posted here, 
but I have no real excuse. 

Life got busy, 
and I've been spending my 
free time doing other things 
like taking pictures, 
reading, spoiling Mr. Wilson, 
and getting back into running.

It hasn't left a lot of time for
blogging, 
but I'm going to try to be better
about posting my photos again.

NC Holidays (Friends!)

While in NC we spent a good bit of time
running around to see folks, so it was
a treat that several friends
came to see us...
we got to visit with these awesome people, 
and didn't have to get back in the car!



We tried hard to fit in a few more visits, 
but unfortunately we didn't have quite enough time
to see everyone. 

To anyone we missed, we hope to see you next time, and come visit us in CO!

Christmas festivities! (NC holidays)

For Christmas, we couldn't decide 
if our niece was a better stocking stuffer...

Or present (she's pretty cute either way).

She figured out the unwrapping pretty quickly, 
and loved helping everyone with their gifts.

As is normal for us, things got a little wacky...






It was a little too much excitement for Shelby.
