Jordan and I went away to Beaver Creek this weekend all alone! Lola and Ryan stayed at Yaya and Grandpa's house (that's my mom and dad). I was a little nervous to leave the kids for so long because we had never done that before, but my parents said it went prertty well. Lola is still in her crib, so it was very different for her to sleep on the floor in a sleeping bag. The first night, she tried to get in head first and they had a hard time maneuvering her back out. But she got used to it and slept OK. She didn't take naps there though because she able to get out so easily. On our way home from the mountains she told me on the phone that she was tired. I knew she must be absolutely exhausted to admit to being tired. When we finally got the kids home she fell asleep before her head hit the pillow!
We stayed at a gorgeous little place called the Poste Montane. It only has 24 rooms and it was extra quiet because we were there during the off-season. There weren't even many people in the village. It was so nice to have some major peace and quiet after the madness that is sometimes our household. We had some great food and saw some beautiful places. The trees are all turning colors right now and it is about the prettiest scenery I have ever seen. Our pictures don't do it justice.

How fun! And Happy Birthday to you! Sounds like you had a great little getaway.
Hey. I am so glad you had a great time. That place is just amazing. I am glad you found one the best little secrets in Colorado. We love it there...especially this time of year...like you said, it is sooo quiet and the village is quiet. It is so awesome to grab some coffee sip on it and walk through the village. The fall colors are amazing...glad you were able to see the high country when everything was changing. We should get together before the snow starts! :D
Looks like you guys had a good time! I can't wait to get away for a weekend without kids!!! Someday...
