Friendship can be a tricky thing. It’s like any relationship really. Sometimes it’s a two-way relationship, other times it’s more complicated, and then even more unique, you find those who just “get” you while at the same time, find those who, while you put 100% into the friendship, they just take and rarely reciprocate.

Hiking rocks. What do you think? Are you a fan of hiking? In Colorado, there are hundreds of trails and being outside, exploring nature, is one of the best parts of living here. Summer or winter. Hiking with a friend one day in the summer reminded me of this joy, especially when we both got [...]

A month or so ago, my friend Katie wrote a beautiful ode to her girlfriends for the Korbel Mimosa Girls Getaway sweepstakes. The giveaway? A weekend in Napa Valley experiencing luxury and yummy champagne. The awesome part was that Katie’s “toast” was selected as one of eight finalists for the getaway. Unfortunately, we weren’t selected [...]

Who knew painting a blank canvas would be so fulfilling. I learned my inner creativity was begging to get out when some girlfriends and I went to Canvas & Cocktails. It was a fantastic experience and we’re planning to do it again soon. Have you ever done something to bring out a different side, whether [...]

How many times in 20-10 did you think to yourself, “wow, this year is flying by!”? I think I said it a thousand times and meant it. The year literally went by in a blink of an eye. First, it was spring skiing season, then Labor Day weekend, then post-Halloween sugar coma, and now it’s [...]

One of the best things to do in the winter time is to enjoy it! For example, when great friends come to town, go ski the Rocky Mountains including Keystone and Breckenridge. Take in nature for all that she offers us and of course, have fun.
A Time to be Grateful

The month of November is the time of year to think about what you’re grateful for and though I’m a little late, I wanted to say that above all else I’m so thankful for my family. Without them, I would be lost. My family consists of my parents, brother and sister-in-law, my boyfriend and my [...]

My great girlfriend from college, Kristina, got engaged recently and I couldn’t be happier for her. She and her fiancee Tim have been dating since college and had the cutest engagement. Tim took Kristina to a pumpkin patch, had both their families there and got down on one knee. Pretty darn special. And I’m excited [...]
