MLK Weekend

On Saturday, we headed to Keystone with our friend Leah and her friends Gretchen and Chad. The weather was gorgeous! Highs in the low 30's and not a cloud in the sky. They hadn't gotten snow recently, so the groomed runs were fast. Matt and Chad were in heaven when we found a run with no one on it and they could go down as fast as they possibly could. We took a break around lunch to have a beer and were able to sit outside and not be cold. It was a great day!

After skiing, we went home, relaxed, and then met our friends Brandon and Ashley at Fire on the Mountain for wings. Wings were probably the only thing that could have gotten Karla off the couch after a day of skiing.

Sunday was the Bronco's game at Matt's friend Brad's house. They live in the suburbs so there was plenty of space for us to throw the football around before the game and during halftime. The game was great -- especially since the Broncos won! It's not hard to jump on the Broncos bandwagon and it's the one football team we can cheer for together.

Since Matt had MLK off, Karla decided to take it off too. Since we went skiing on Saturday, we decided to head up to Rocky Mountain National Park to do some snowshoeing. The weather was amazing again - sunny and not too cold. We hiked from Nymph Lake to Dream Lake to Emerald Lake. Between Dream and Emerald the wind really picked up, but it was still a really fun hike. That's definitely one of our favorite hikes at RMNP - winter or summer!
