Vacation Recap!

We spent the 4th of July in Vail, Colorado this year and had a great time! The weather was beautiful and such a nice break from the hot & humid weather in Atlanta. Elise was so excited to see her grandparents, aunts, and uncles from Florida and to spend an entire week with them! We celebrated the 4th with a parade in Vail Village and fireworks at dusk. It started raining so the grand finale was cut short, but all in all it was a great 4th!! The rest of the trip was spent doing a lot of outdoor activities...fishing, white-water rafting, mountain-biking, and playing at the park. An outdoor concert, a visit with a college friend, a moose-sighting, several card games, and some shopping rounded out the week nicely. It was sad to say goodbye both to the mountains and to our family but we made some great memories that we'll remember forever!

A family picture!



I'm in love with the mountains!

This was the best we could do for our family picture.



My favorite picture...thanks for being such a great photographer, Aunt Jill!



Thanks so much Geep and Grammy for a fun-filled vacation!



Loving life!!!
