Colorado: Day 5 - The Final Day

 For our final day in Colorado, Mr. took me to one of the prettiest places I've ever seen: Estes Park. It's a cute little mountain town, full of native american shops and beautiful jewelry, even some delicious handmade candies (hence the taffy box, yum)!! After enjoying brunch at one of the cutest cafes, Mr took me up to St. Mary's Lake about 5 minutes west of Estes Park. When we found it, it was so beautiful, covered in snow and half frozen. We played in the snow and ice for hours and had the most fun of our lives. After we were fully frozen, we packed up and headed back to Denver to catch our late night flight. I loved Colorado! 

Oh, and by the way... I AM ENGAGED!!!!!

Colorado: Day 4

Colorado day 4 was spent in Denver! We took the scenic route along the Rocky Mountains, and our first stop was Casa Bonita, the Mexican restaurant//entertainment capitol of Colorado. For those of you who don't know what Casa Bonita is, let me fill you in: It's an all-you-can-eat Mexican restaurant with a swimming pool, waterfall, cliff divers, skits, gorillas, a haunted cave, princesses and thieves, looks like you're walking the streets of Mexico one minute and then you find yourself on the set of titanic the next. We spend around 4 hours there, where :30 minutes was spent actually eating and the other 3:30 was spent exploring. It was insane and so much fun!
After Casa Bonita, we found ourselves in downtown Denver, observing the 16th Street Mall and the Brown Palace Hotel. We settled into a bowling alley to watch the Denver Broncos beat the Pittsburgh Steelers and cheered all the way home!

Higher & Higher

Get your fix with higher than high topknots this winter. Bundle up to your ears with layers of scarves, and cozy up to your new height.

Colorado: Day 3

Our third day in Colorado was spent with family and enjoying Mr's hometown. In the evening, we traveled up the road to Fort Collins and enjoyed the view from a beautiful reservoir. It was one of my favorite parts of the trip and by far one of the most lovely.
