Playing Catch Up

Well, I am back in the great state of Texas, sweating my butt off, and reliving the nice weekend over and over again in my head. 

I was lucky enough to be in Denver the last couple of days. Got to catch up with friends from college and went to a wedding up in the gorgeous mountain village of Beaver Creek. 

View from the cocktail hour at the Ritz. Fancy!

Beautiful bride, beautiful setting and a great time with friends. Really, what more could you ask for?!

A big group of us sorority sisters there for the wedding.

I'm playing a nice little game of catch up today. Lots to do around the house here and lots to do in bloggyland. Been missing ya'll!

Oh, almost forgot. I figured out how to get that special Truck Nuts picture off my dad's camera. Haha, that will never get old on there. 

So, without further ado, here are the white trashiest Truck Nutz around. Gotta love 'em. 

Told ya they were homemade!! And rusty!

If you aren't having a great Monday after that, then I don't know what to do. 

I'll be around to visit all of ya'll today!! At least that is my goal :)

And for tomorrow, I can't wait to share with you the real reason I love traveling....SkyMall!!!

  1. I'm so glad we get to see the real photo of the nuts nuts! Also, that photo from cocktail hour is stunning. A cocktail doesn't sound too bad actually, is 10 am too early?

  16. Trashy or mocking of those who hang the "real" thing?

    I like to think it's the latter.

    @Paul - I have a feeling you would like both. And even though I am real partial to Texas, Colorado is amazing. Its a must one day. Thanks Paul!
    @Marcy - soooo beautiful. It is one place that might make me leave Texas one day. I said might.
    @Erin - haha, awesome. I will do my best to convince you then, lol
    @April - soo beautiful, it was my first time there. No, not Howard and Katie. But we may or may not have crashed their reception! haha, just kidding. Good hearing from you girl!
    @Copyboy - lol, if you say so :) Thanks! I should have gotten more, the scenery was literally breath taking.
    @Laura - I had no idea so many people knew and loved it! Well thanks, we really did.
    @Rachel - you are so sweet, I have gotten so busy doing 'real life'...man that sucks. For sure I need to email you, I even have a good idea. And duh, SkyMall rocks! lol

  19. I think it's the rust that's the most off-putting.

    Denver looks fabulous! Glad you had a good trip, but glad you're back :)
