Our weekend get-a-way to Rocky Mtn Natl Park/Estes Park



After enough begging I convinced Reid to take us all up to Estes Park for the weekend. It was a BLAST!! it's this cute little resort town just on the east side of Rocky Mountain National Park. We honestly had so much fun! Usually "family vacation" means go to Star Valley or Provo and stay with family, so this was a perfect little get-a-way for us.

The Rocky Mountains were AMAZING! and the colors of the Aspen trees were honestly like nothing i've ever seen before! i thought after leaving Boston that i'd never enjoy another fall again, but we caught these trees on their PEAK day, and it was honestly almost as gorgeous as fall in the east....almost!

Grace and Abby were awesome travelers, especially considering the lack of sleep that was going on! the hotel was GHETTO! the mating Elk were, well, mating. The homemade toffee and truffles were delish. But, as cheesy as it's going to sound, the absolute best part of the whole weekend was being with Reid. We honestly had so much fun just being together. thanks, hon!
