Can't get much closer to God than where we are...

I am seriously on cloud nine. Especially after this past weekend. Ty and I went "backpacking" which really turned into us sipping coffee with the "upwardly mobile" in Aspen and Glenwood and then car camping in Buena Vista. Although I was looking forward to my first backpacking trip I was more looking forward to a wonderful weekend with Ty. I didn't care what we did or where we ended up.

I think it was a great weekend for us to embrace the wonderful things God gave us...including each other. It was also a good time to get to know each other and get a little more comfortable with each other (and with ourselves to be completely honest). I didn't wear my make-up the entire time. That was good...but of course once I got home I put it right back on. I am working and praying about that!

Other points worth bringing up...A deer watched me pee...that was an experience. I bought a wonderful new coat in Aspen. And the backpacking food from REI is quite tasty. (My boyfriend is quite the chef i might add) Also, I realize I have very wonderful friends, including Rachel for letting me borrow her backpack, Nickie for letting us borrow her tent and outerwear and Matt for letting me borrow his sleeping bag.
And then back to reality....sigh....
