Colorado

Ahhh.... home sweet home! I'm finally home to stay after several weekends of traveling! I've had a ball visiting with good friends and family over the last few weeks! I did Colorado, Chicago and just returned from northern Michigan (don't worry my friends, I was nowhere near Ann Arbor!).

Katie and The Millers, thanks again for having us! We had such a great time!

Here are some of the highlights of Denver and Breckenridge. There's more to come from Chicago and Michigan!




Katie makes the BEST kookies! They are seriously the best I've ever had. She's definitely got great recipes...she showed me how to make them, but of course they weren't the same! Katie, I need another lesson!!


This is the local bar we made a few trips to. The locals call it 'The Spot' though...interesting...

In Breckenridge, we went on a hike through the old mining areas that just recently opened to the public. The Millers are such a neat and active couple! They lead a hike once a week through different trails in the summer.





Hopped on the ski lift for great views and a ride back down!


Found a lot of farmer's markets going on! So many good foods! We bought fixings for a small picnic to take to the Red Rock Amphitheater for lunch!




....still daydreaming of Kaite's Kookies......delicious!

On our last night in Denver, we went to Jazz in the Park. We bought more picnic food at the markets and enjoyed wine and great company. We had a great time visiting with friends from town that we don't get to see enough!

Our last afternoon, we stopped at the Denver Botanic Gardens for another picnic. It was another gorgeous day and a great end to a perfect trip!

The three C's

Colorado --> Columbus --> Chicago

Just got back from my Colorado trip, but off again and heading to Chicago for the weekend! Denver and Breckenridge were amazing of course (minus the major sinus flare up thing that happened, not so cool)! Did I say that I could move there? Because I am ready to pack up and move across the country! I love the dry heat, they get 300 sunny days a year (who knew, I think Columbus might get 70??), the bar, Spot, is there and Denver so biker friendly! Cooool...eh? Anyway, lots more pictures to share in the near future. Enjoy the Colorado sneak peak!

Colorado Bound!

Heading out to Colorado this week! Colorado has a special place in my heart. I think it's an incredible place and I only hope that I actually make it back to Ohio! I don't think I'd mind living out there for a bit sometime in my life. The scenery and the mountains are incredible. Why do I live in Ohio again? haha

I am meeting my sister out there and we're staying with her friend. We'll be in Denver and making our way to Breckenridge for a few days too!! Daydreaming of my last trip out there....

Engagement: Lindsey & Greg

Lindsay and Greg were up for anything for their photoshoot (LOVE THAT!), so I took them to this old truck I've been eying in the neighborhood. I LOVE it! It just sits there...I'm not even sure if it works! I hope it never goes away because now this is one of my new favorite spots!

This week I shot a couple that I enjoyed so much! I'm so glad I got to meet them! They are both fun and really down to earth! Here is a sneak peak of their session!

sRGB vs. Adobe RGB

I wanted to do a little experiment because I've been frustrated with my blog posts looking a little off. The colors look kind of on the wonky side! Grrrr... In photoshop they look amazing and just how I want them to look, then I post them and they don't look nearly as great. I know the difference might be in the color profile. The Pioneer Woman Blog does a good job of explaining it more in depth. Do these look different to you?

Columbus Clippers Game

Columbus Clippers have a beautiful, super fun new stadium! I posted a few pics when it was under construction here. I went with my Aunt, Uncle, cousins, cousin's girlfriend and brother (not pictured). What's better than beer, peanuts, baseball game...and a cousin on the team!!? Whoo hoo!!
