Visit from my Bestie

My best friend, Rindy, recently came to visit us, with her boyfriend, Ben. We had so much fun--we visited Estes Park and had a drink at The Stanley Hotel. We drove up Rocky National Park, only to experience a nice winter storm (with no views!). We did get some really great photos up there though:

We also did a hike at Red Rocks, then had a nice dinner downtown Denver and grabbed some dessert at the best dessert bar in town, The D Bar. :) Then we checked out the lights on Larimar Square--which was beautiful. The night was perfect!

Next we'll be traveling to our home state, Iowa, for the holidays. We are so excited to be visiting our friends and family this year for Christmas. Happy Holidays! I'll post more pictures soon!
