on vacation permananetly

One of my favorites parts of moving is shedding all the to-do's, schedules, and routines and having that lovely lull of open time until my life fills up with play dates, errands and callings again. We are in heaven living the hotel suite life (full with a free breakfast and pool/hot tub) here in beautiful Boulder. It's so clean and so open.

Afton loves to check out the mountains and spot any snow left on the tops. Abel loves all the air traffic we get from smaller airports. Every day a glider is pulled into the sky and we watch it circle down, down, down. Afton loves eating a donut or muffin every morning and Abel loves climbing up a few stairs and sliding down on his bottom.

Patrick is so psyched to work at Crispin. He is so happy being challenged creatively and giggles every time someone rides by his deck on a bike or skateboard. He is on the hunt for adult size wheelies to travel around the warehouse style office in. He is working a lot, but the kids get 2 hours of Daddy time in the morning (while I go to the gym) so it evens out.

I am so happy here! I am narrowing down home choices and will hopefully put an offer in tomorrow for a great town home (yes with guest spaces, a pool, gym, trials and more!!). I need to make a few friends but that will come in time. I'm reading a lot, watching abc.com shows and learning all about the home buying process.

When I find my camera cable I will upload lots of photos. I took so many on the road trip, mostly documenting our trip via highway window shots state by state.

Sounds like you guys are having a really good time in Boulder! Hotel living has got to be a huge help with you guys begining to get settled in.

So glad that Patrick loves his job! Sounds like such a fun cool place to work.

The new places, sound very cool...guest areas and pools are a nice upgrade to what you've had lately. Hope you get the ones you want! :D
