Schwester in the Rockies



I am gonna have to say so far the highlight of 2015 for me is having my sister come and visit us in Estes Park, CO! 

Whoop whoop hotdog, oh boy did we have fun.  Of course we would have loved to have her stay for a whole week if not longer, but the time we did have to together was packed full of memories and I can't complain one bit.  I am so thankful for the time we get to spend together.

Here is a list of highlights...

1.  Walking downtown in a snowstorm and warming up in shops along the way (and possibly making a scene or two)
2.  Cooking in the kitchen together
3.  Eating a home cooked meal in front of the fire at the YMCA lodge
4. Choreographed roller-skating
5.  The joy of wrestling in sumo suits (the Y's best kept secret)
6.  Waking up to a mountain view and blue skies
7.  Big Horn sheep sighting!
8.  Snowshoeing in a Narnia winter wonderland
9.  Picnic and hot chocolate by a frozen waterfall (even though you couldn't see it under all the snow)
10.  Smokin' Dave's BBQ and smokin' hot deals
11.  Skiing in Loveland with two of my favorite people
12.  All 3 of us tumbling off the ski lift causing the lift to stop and the lift operator to run out and check on us (must have been quite the tumble!)
13. Eating Gimbap with travel chopsticks and getting stared at, questioned, and praised for our creative packed lunch in our apparently huge cooler
14. Showing my sister my life in Estes and getting to share with her the things I love :)
