Keystone Colorado!!!

Downtown Keystone...isn't it beautiful!
They had this great ice castle with slides and stuff that we a great time on...although I did miss the kids !
Jaron totally whooped me skiing but that's o.k. I had such a great time watching him! He was in HEAVEN!
I held my own...if I can say so myself! I might not have flown through air (atleast gracefully) but I did laugh so hard that I almost had a really embarrassing moment!
What a great weekend!
So Jaron and I went away on our first trip, just the two of us, since we got married almost ten years ago! We went to Keystone, Colorado and it was such a blast! Jaron was presenting some research for an ER conference and I got to tag along! I was literally in HEAVEN being in the snow and skiing with Jaron. It's a good thing that Keystone was so fun because I cried the entire way to the airport! I have never been separated from the kids for more then a 12 hours so I had to keep telling myself that they would be alright! I was sooooo grateful for Jaron's mom who flew all the way out to San Antonio to watch our kids for three days! They had a great time watching all three of the Home Alone movies and trying to keep Thomas alive (he's definitely a hand FULL)!
The highlights of our trip were :
#1- Skiing in the BEAUTIFUL mountains
#2- Sleeping in until 7am (our kids are really early risers...but so are Jaron and I)
#3- Seeing Jaron present his research
#4- Shopping ALONE at the outlet
and of course, seeing my kiddos faces when we got home! Thanks Jer for such a great weekend!

What a fun, perfect getaway! I am glad you two were able to have some time away together. It seems like those times are harder and harder to come by when you have little ones...totally worth it, but also nice to have the one on one time. The pictures made me really miss the snow. I'm sure Texas is similar to Australia...the change in seasons isn't very drastic. I miss the distinct seasons. You and Jaron look so great!! I love you two together and I love thinking back on the days when you were dating...:) You look beautiful by the way!
