this weekend we did something we haven't been able to do in FOREVER...we got outta town! we used to do these little day adventures a lot more, but then the boys had sport stuff every weekend, and steph has been working a second job. sigh. so, life pulled us in a different direction. but we were able to sneak away this weekend to a gorgeous little town nestled in the mountains...golden, co. man is it beautiful here! and, i am not a beer drinker, but as many of you may know, golden is the home of the coors brewing operation. well, again, i don't drink, but the heavenly smell that permeated the whole town was - um...like baking bread! lots and lots of bread. i was so dang hungry when we left!
unfortunately, ben and kyle weren't with us, so they aren't in any of these pics. i feel like i need to take more pics of them. but, they are harder to "catch" being older and involved in this and that. i will do better at it though!
see what i mean about the smell.......... (actually this was outside a candle shop, but it proved my point so beautifully!)
what a gorgeous escape! i was so thankful to be able to get out of my stale environment and regroup a bit. somehow being in nature always makes me feel closer to heavenly father. which was just what i needed.

Glad you were able to get away for a little while! It is very beautiful there, wonderful pictures too. What a great time of year to go there.
You guys deserved to have the time to yourself. The pictures are great as usual.
Love the pics! I have always loved Golden as well. Such a nice little place.
the last photo of Noah is so beautiful - perfect lighting.
oh Kim, I am crying right now and wishing I lived closer to where I could help out or hang out or just come up with some craft for us to do together. You are so amazing and I hurt for your loss. I'm glad you were able to escape for the weekend and I hope with the holidays approaching you have lots more tiny escapes and thoughts that bring you closer to Heavenly Father. You are such an example and truly and amazing woman!
I want to go to Golden now. You painted such a perfect little picture. I can practically smell it. Love the pics.
