Falling in Love With Colorado Fall

You guys … it is FINALLY fall in Colorado!

I mean, today is still supposed to hit 80 degrees. But the weather is slowly changing, and we have made the most out of the past few weekends, with multiple trips to the mountains (peak fall foliage!) and a gorgeous run/bike along the trail behind our old house. It’s been glorious.

This Thursday & Friday is Fall Break for the girls, so we’re off on another adventure. But until then, enjoy these fall photos from our past few days.

Last weekend we spent our Sunday in Frisco, which was truly the first time we felt like we saw fall colors this season.
We <3 it here.
Emilia & Dad … a love story <3
Occasionally she’ll pose with me, too.
This place is such a dream.
We grabbed lunch at Highside Brewing and sat outside while the kiddos entertained themselves.
I am gearing up to run the Apex Center’s Trick or Trot 5K the weekend before Halloween. So we grabbed the kiddos and their bikes and hit up the trail behind our old house on Saturday morning. So much fun. So many memories.
It’s easy to forget how pretty this place is when you don’t live 15 feet away anymore. We had the best morning!
Yesterday we packed up the car and headed back to the mountains. This time for the St. Mary’s Glacier hike.
Did Emilia spend 99.9% of the hike on Dad’s shoulders? Sure did.
Colorado. Is there any place like you?
Emilia had never been to St. Mary’s Glacier, and Lotte & Grace were last here when they were teeny tiny.
It was some kind of special to be back this time <3
Never not picking the more adventurous route.
A stranger took this picture, and it’s probably one of our best ever.
Classic.
It was a very fun day.

In four days we’re off to Great Sand Dunes National Park, which is yet another place that Emilia has never been to and Lotte & Grace only visited once when they were very little. Call this an unintentional revisiting of our past … whatever it is, I’m here for it.

Happy fall, ya’ll!

Bis bald!
