We drove up Mt. Evans on Memorial Day.
We had to go to Colorado Springs last weekend to pick something up, so we stopped at Garden of the Gods for a little bit.

We Moved to Colorado!
I have been wanting to move back to Colorado ever since Anthony and I were married. It just never happened, and finally I resigned myself to the fact that we would live in Utah forever. As the years passed by, I started to hate living in Utah with a passion. I missed my family. I missed my friends. The thing that kept me holding on was the fact that my sister, Stacy, and her family lived in Utah too, and that Anthony's sister's family and his brother's family lived only 3 hours away.
Last summer my brother-in-law got a job in Colorado and they moved. I was really sad about it, depressed even. I was happy for them, but I didn't want us to be by ourselves in Utah. I kept how I felt to myself though, because I didn't want my sister to feel bad that they were leaving us.
In December Anthony surprised me by applying for some locksmith jobs in Colorado. He applied for some at the beginning of last year as well, but it didn't work out. So when he got an interview for a locksmith job in Aurora, I didn't want to get my hopes up too high. I was really excited when he got the call that he got the job and would start in February!
We broke our lease in Utah and moved to Colorado. We couldn't afford a place to live right away, and we wanted to make sure that we would be living somewhere we liked, so Anthony stayed in Littleton at Stacy and Kurt's house, and Mason and I stayed in Rye at my parents house until we could find our current apartment. We are extremely grateful to our family for letting us stay with them for so long, and for all of their help with everything! Mason really loved staying at Grandma and Grandad's house.
We moved into our current apartment about a month ago, and we have liked it so far! I love our new ward, there are so many friendly people. I am excited that a friend that I knew my freshman year of college is in our ward as well. We are close to a lot of places, we have 3 grocery stores nearby, and a bunch of other things. We aren't far from the fun things in downtown Denver, or far from the airport. But the best part about living here is that my entire family lives 2 hours or less away! We were sad that we moved further away from Anthony's siblings in Idaho though; but we did move 8 hours closer to the rest of his family!
