Beautiful Colorado

Our family moved to Colorado in 1996 when Jim started working for Promise Keepers.  The first time I was ever in this beautiful state, I was in total awe of the mountains and blue sky.  I remember thinking, "Why do the people who live here not even seem to notice the scenery?  How can they not stop and look every single time they go outside?"  I asked God to not ever let me take the majesty of His creation for granted.  I never wanted to stop "seeing" it!  We've lived here 16 years, and so far I'm still entranced by those mountains every single day!

Yesterday our family took a "Fall Break" from school and went to Mt. Evans, west of Denver. This time of year the road is closed to the top (Mt. Evans Road is the highest auto road in the US), but we got as far as Echo Lake.  Here are some pics of our day!

  1. Gorgeous! We visited Estes Park a few years ago. Incredible! By the way, I was born in Denver but moved away when I was 2:)

  2. Hi Joy! What a beautiful family you have! I wanted to stop by and thank you for linking up with the Christian Adoption Link Up! I pray that you've been able to connect with a few other families and have been encouraged along the way! I can't wait to see how the Lord completes your journey!
