Brooks & Andrea's Wedding!

We went to Brooks & Andrea's wedding this past Saturday up in beautiful Red Feather Lakes. Craig & I decided to make a day of it and dropped Chase off at Grandma & Papa's early in the morning and headed to Fort Collins. We had breakfast at our favorite spot - The Silver Grill - yum yum! I didn't get any pictures but we split their yogurt, granola & fruit parfait and each had a side of Cinnamon Roll Toast (their specialty which is to die for!) We headed to the book store for some new gear - shirts and THANK GOODNESS - a new hat for Craig... anyone who knows what I am talking about I'm sure you are laughing and are relieved that we may have found a replacement for the piece of fabric he was wearing on his head for years and calling a "hat." (Love you hon if you are reading this :) ) Lastly we walked around campus and checked out the newly renovated rec center - it is so nice. It's crazy to see how much has changed since we graduated 6 years ago.

After our trip down memory lane we headed up to the wedding. It was a beautiful day set in a gorgeous background at Brooks' family cabin in the mountains. Brooks & Andrea got married outdoors and then the rest of the afternoon we just hung out together playing horseshoes, eating and sharing lots of laughs and old memories with an amazing group of friends. By the end of the day my cheeks were seriously hurting from laughing so much - you know it's a good day when your cheeks hurt!

Moving the keg closer to the party - right in the middle of our circle - ha ha!


Wow, that's heavy.. taking a break!


Tricia kicking it up a notch and bringing out shots for everyone - I was very happy to be pregnant at that moment... warm vodka wasn't really sounding the best!


Cheers to Brooks & Andrea!



After the wedding we decided to go to a restaurant in town (there is 1 so it was a pretty easy choice - ha ha!) We headed to the Pot Belly Deli for some dinner and much to our excitement there was karaoke - sweet! We had a few hours of fun singing and dancing with the locals!





We ended the night by heading to the cabin we all rented - and after a long, confusing dirt road drive in the dark - we made it to our GORGEOUS place! The cabin was beautiful and we had a fun night playing games and sharing more laughs.

Congrats Brooks & Andrea - we wish you a life full of happiness!
