Year in Review

~Our wedding pictures were featured on 2 different wedding websites!

~Ben started working for All State and commutes down to Colorado Springs. Every day.

~We went on some great snowshoe trips, several beautiful hikes and had a fun camping trip

~We went on a couple of great trips- we road tripped out to Michigan to visit some friends and we went to Vegas for an extra long weekend

~I went to the inaugural US Pro Cycling Tour and got to see many of the world’s top cyclist live and up close. It was a blast!

~We now have a 4 wheel drive vehicle, and she’s a beast! We got the Explorer after the mean, green machine was totaled not even a mile from our house
