It was almost two months ago that I went to Colorado with my family for my cousin Katie's anniversary party and I almost forgot to blog about it!! (I may have forgotten to blog about it but I did post the slideshows my dad created. ) Quick refresher on my trip: I went to Colorado immediately after working in Austin, TX for three weeks. The first night in Colorado was spent enjoying happy hour at Que Bueno and going out with Jeff, Heidi and Tony. The second day we went to a nice picnic with other family and out-of-towners and then took a walk down Pearl Street in Boulder Colorado. So now I'll continue where I left off...
After shopping on Pearl Street for an hour or so, we all went back to our hotel to relax and get ready for the upcoming anniversary party. The party was a dessert reception so a bunch of out family went and had an early dinner on the rooftop patio at the Lazy Dog before heading to the party. This place had great food, I did a mini- review for the Twin Cities Restaurant Blog.
After dinner we headed to a Contemporary museum in Boulder for the anniversary party, which was a dessert reception. Katie and EZ. got married on August 1, 2008 and decided to wait until this year to have a reception for their first anniversary.
Lots of yummy treats in little nooks and crannies around the space....
My mom and dad....
Jeff and Amanda (there are at least two hundred pics of these two while in Colorado!)
After the party ended, several of us young, cool cousins all went out to Pearl Street. We had a lot of fun! This was the first time that this particular group of cousins had ever gone out together before and we were all in Colorado celebrating, so it was even more cool. It reminded me of the fun times Katie and I used to have when we were roommates at SCSU where we both did our undergrads. It would've been great if Brian and Michelle could've joined us but they had to take the kids back to the hotel for bed.

That's a lotta post! Your Colorado trip looks like it was really a ton of fun. What a beautiful place! You guys captured some amazing photos. I can see them being framers, for sure. It's very nice how much you do as a family. What a great support system you all make for each other and your nieces and nephew. It's pretty special and none too common. The idea of doing the reception at the end of their first year of marriage is so cool! I love that! And you look great, by the way!
