Estees Weekend...finally posting!

Missy and I went on a girl's weekend during the first weekend in Feb. It was so relaxing, that we were not quite sure what to do with ourselves at times! Here is the inn that we stayed at....very cozy and warm. It was very cool becasue this inn sits at the end of the little main street, so we went on lots of walks.Here I am drinking hot chocolate at this little coffee joint called "The Jitterbug". It was kind of like going to your Gramma's house...only you had to pay for the grub... Missy and I had a blast with our friend Cory's picture...He wanted to come with us to Estes, but alas, he is not a girl. So we spent some time putting his picture in odd places so he wouldn't feel forgotten about. He is being a very wreckless driver in this shot. One of my favorites....


Everything was going fine until Missy got attacked by a mountian lion.... It was so unerving that all I could do was take pictures. (You might think that I was the Asian!-I suppose if I had a rake, it would have been a different story) I think it was the flash reflecting off of the bronze that scared him away....

Cory found himself among some very interesting people during our visit to Estes...
One of our favorite things was visiting the glass blowing studio. We got to watch a dude make 2 bowls and then we went on a bead duying frenzy. It was such a fun trip.
Here we are at the end of our mini-vacation. BFFs on a bench!! I'm super glad that Missy survived that lion attack... this picture would have been ackward otherwise!

Too bad I didn't have my chopsticks on me, I coulda poked the Mountain Lion's eyes out or something. Maybe my nunchucks would have helped, I have mad skills, ya know!
