Colorado

Thanks to my parents (who watched Danny and Andrew) Adam and I were able to go to Aspen, Colorado for Adam's cousin's wedding. I took so many pictures of the mountains because I could not get over how beautiful it all was. We flew into Denver and drove the 3 or 4 hours to Aspen. I do not think there was one minute of the drive that was not a perfect postcard picture. These pictures are of the continental divide- I believe it was 14,000 feet up. The drive there was somewhat nerve racking for me- roads with straight down cliffs right off the side- often without gaurd rails. I had a "bad mom" moment when we got to the top (about a 40 min drive) and I realized Jacob wasn't buckled into his car seat! I tried to make myself feel a little better by figuring that if we went off one of those cliffs a seat belt wouldn't have mattered...but still, how bad is that?
