Colorado in Autumn

I love autumn. It's my favorite season and it is no wonder that Colorado is incredibly beautiful during this time of year. The Aspen trees turn a beautiful bright yellow color; bursting out of the mountains like oil covered paintbrushes. Truly, the Rockies this time of year are breath-taking.

It was a wonderfully relaxing weekend. Thanks to Ami's husband Andrew, Ami and I spent a night up in Vail in a gorgeous resort that had a wonderful spa. A spa we took full advantage of. It was pure heaven to escape to the middle of the mountains with my best friend. I can't remember the last time we had a full day and night to hang out and just catch up. It was glorious...

The view from our hotel showed the adorable resorts throughout vail and a peek of the mountains with those bright yellow Aspens I so dearly love. The room itself was amazing! I would die to have a bedroom and bathroom like this in my house. Seriously, what a treat it was!

The girls, as usual were the best. It's always so amazing to see how fast they grow. It seems that everytime I go out to visit, I've missed so much... and they are already so much bigger and are growing so much faster. "Why are you so big?!" is a sentence I say often. It is really great though, to be able to be apart of their lives in such a close way. To matter that much to them and to have them matter that much to me... seriously I love these girls as if they are my own and being there for the little moments are so great. Even if it is just a haircut and a ride on the carousel at the mall. :)

I have lots more Colorado photos you can see here. For now I will leave with you a piece of the gorgeous Colorado Rockies.

Happy Friday Friends!
