Estes Park, CO, Moab, Arches Nat'l Park, and Canyonlands Nat't Park, UT

We are home from a long, exciting and very fun vacation. We took off late on Wednesday and camped in WY, before driving Thursday to Boulder, CO. We camped in Boulder that night so we could be at the Men's Warehouse Friday morning to try on the tuxes. After the tux fitting, we headed up to Estes Park, CO for Tyra & Joel's wedding. Estes Park was beautiful with Elk roaming everywhere. We had a wonderful time with lots of family, and the wedding was perfect. Tyra was a gorgeous bride. I am happy Oliver didn't succeeded, as he tried to steel the show at the reception. What a handsome little guy I must say! I'll post more pictures from Estes Park soon. Ella was very good as she spend most of the time in the Minnie Winnie since she wasn't allowed to be in the Condo. After the wedding festivities were over, we drove to Silverthorne, CO to visit Suzie, Jason, and Dylan. We spend part of the day with them, then continued to drive West toward Moab, UT. We camped close to the CO/UT border that night and arrived in Moab the next morning. We spend a few days exploring Moab, the Arches Nat'l Park, and Canyonlands Nat'l Park. Both parks were incredible.



Thanks to Miguel for keeping an eye on our house, the birds, and our cat Blue. Now, house cleaning, fall garden clean up, and getting our Koi and goldfish moved out of our perennial ponds and into their winter semi-indoor pond. Then, back to work, which I am looking forward to! Here are some pictures from the week... more to come!
